• Design and conduct large-scale social engineering tests using the latest techniques and tools.
• Manage the full lifecycle of security projects, including client interactions, reporting, and presentations.
• Contribute to the development of automated security tools and infrastructure, collaborating with development teams.
• Utilize and maintain expertise in advanced penetration testing tools such as Burp Suite Pro, Nessus, Metasploit, and CobaltStrike.
• Work with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS) and automation tools (e.g., Terraform, GitLab pipelines).

Skills and Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience in penetration testing, including web application testing.
• Experience with red teaming, purple teaming, and adversary simulation.
• OSCP or equivalent skills-based certification.
