You’ll work closely with senior security engineers to identify, analyze, and remediate security vulnerabilities across applications, networks, and systems — helping strengthen client security postures in real-world environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Assist in performing vulnerability assessments and penetration tests on web applications, networks, and infrastructure.
• Identify, validate, and document security vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and potential exploits.
• Support the preparation of comprehensive assessment reports, including impact analysis and remediation recommendations.
• Participate in threat research to stay updated on emerging exploits, vulnerabilities, and cybersecurity trends.
• Collaborate with senior security professionals in testing engagements and remediation verification.

• Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification is mandatory.
• Fundamental understanding of network protocols, operating systems (Windows/Linux), and web application architecture.
• Familiarity with common security tools such as Burp Suite, Nmap, Metasploit, Wireshark, or similar.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail.
• Effective communication skills, both written and verbal.

Preferred Qualifications (Good to Have)

• Awareness of OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and common web application attack vectors.
• Understanding of secure coding principles and defensive security concepts.
• Hands-on experience through internships, cybersecurity projects, or capture-the-flag (CTF) challenges.
• Exposure to scripting languages such as Python, Bash, or PowerShell for automation or exploit development.
