Experience : 10 to 18 Years

Location : Pune

Skill : Penetration Testing

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

The role will include both recurring security assessment activities and project-based penetration testing engagements, ensuring that internal and client-facing systems are continuously evaluated against evolving threats, with findings properly tracked, reported, and resolved.

Over time, this position is expected to grow into a more senior offensive security role, progressively contributing to red team operations, custom exploit development, security architecture reviews, and the definition of internal testing methodologies and standards.

Who Are We Looking For

The ideal candidate combines solid technical knowledge of offensive security with a methodical approach to vulnerability assessment and exploitation, together with the curiosity and drive to keep pace with an ever-evolving threat landscape.

Key Responsibilities:

• Plan, execute, and document penetration tests across web applications, internal networks, and external infrastructure.
• Perform vulnerability assessments, security audits, and threat modeling activities.
• Simulate real-world attack scenarios including phishing campaigns, social engineering, and red team exercises.
• Identify, exploit, and document security vulnerabilities, providing clear remediation guidance.
• Produce detailed technical reports for both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders.
• Support remediation efforts by collaborating with development and infrastructure teams.
• Stay current on emerging threats, CVEs, attack techniques, and security tooling.
• Contribute to the improvement of internal security testing methodologies, tools, and playbooks.
• Assist with security awareness initiatives and internal training activities.
• Progressively take on more complex engagements, with a long-term path toward senior red team or security architecture roles.

Required Skills:

• Hands-on experience with penetration testing of web applications, networks, and systems.
• Good knowledge of common attack techniques (OWASP Top 10, MITRE ATT&CK, privilege escalation, lateral movement, etc.).
• Proficiency with standard security tooling (Burp Suite, Nmap, Metasploit, Nessus, or similar).
• Ability to write clear, structured reports documenting findings, risk levels, and remediation steps.
• Understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP/S, firewalls, VPNs).
• Familiarity with Linux and Windows environments from both an attacker and defender perspective.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset.
• Good communication skills in English, including the ability to explain technical findings to non-technical audiences.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with Active Directory attacks and privilege escalation in Windows environments.
• Familiarity with cloud security testing (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Knowledge of scripting or automation for custom tooling (Python, Bash, PowerShell).
• Exposure to red team methodologies and adversary simulation frameworks.
• Relevant certifications such as OSCP, CEH, eJPT, or equivalent.
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (ISO 27001, PCI DSS, GDPR, DORA).

Experience:

• 5+ years of relevant experience in penetration testing or offensive security.
• A portfolio of CTF write-ups, HackTheBox/TryHackMe profiles, bug bounty history, or examples of previous engagements are highly appreciated.

Career Path:

This role is intended as an entry point into a broader offensive security career. The selected candidate will initially focus on structured penetration testing engagements and vulnerability assessments, and will progressively be involved in more complex red team operations, threat modeling, and security architecture activities, with the goal of evolving into a senior security specialist or red team lead.
