  • Strong understanding of network protocols, operating systems (Windows, Linux), and application security.
  • Experience with common penetration testing frameworks and tools (e.g., Kali Linux, Metasploit, Burp Suite, Nmap, Wireshark).
  • Familiarity with exploit development and reverse engineering.
  • Solid knowledge of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and related offensive security models.

  • Strong technical writing and documentation skills.
  • Previous involvement in Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions or bug bounty programs.
  • What We Offer
