Red Team Operator
Remote, Europe· REMOTE
About the role
You plan and execute multi-week engagements that emulate how a real attacker would operate against the organisation, working towards defined objectives rather than a checklist. The defensive team is actively monitoring, so a significant part of the work is maintaining access and progressing quietly once they begin investigating. Every engagement ends with a joint debrief covering what was achieved and what was detected.
What you will do
- Plan operations against defined objectives, not a checklist
- Build and maintain the tooling the operation needs
- Debrief the defenders honestly, including what they caught
What they ask for
- Several years of offensive work with references
- Comfortable writing your own tooling rather than running someone else's
- Understands modern detection well enough to plan around it
Nice to have
- OSEP or CRTO
- Published tooling
- Physical or social assessment experience
