Position Summary:
The Senior Pen Tester is responsible for conducting security pen testing, monitoring, and auditing within a dynamic global organization. The products under test will have the coverage of embedded devices and cloud services. The Senior Pen Tester should have exposure to embedded devices as well as cloud services (AWS/Azure). Some of the products will be white box tests while others will be total black box engagements. A successful Senior Pen Tester will be able to take the product and evaluate the weak points in the design and implementation and focus in on those weaknesses to find security gaps. All the findings by the Senior Pen Tester will need to be clearly documented and relayed to the design team for mitigation. The Senior Pen Tester will need to be very versatile in their attack vectors and their knowledge of exploits. The ideal candidate will be well experienced in a broad range of attack vectors across a wide spectrum of devices from small, embedded devices to wide and complex cloud ecosystems.
They will be responsible for interfacing with engineering teams to conduct security testing, auditing and should be able to explain the findings. They will be responsible for ensuring that engineering teams stay in compliance with the security expectations of the global organization. The Senior Pen Tester will be expected to stay current with the latest security threats and attack vectors that can be deployed against the product portfolio. They should also have experience in communicating clearly and concisely the findings of these activities to an audience.
This position will consistently work under the guidance and processes of global security and will support all the regional as well as global engineering groups. The testing activity and methodology deployed to confirm compliance is guided but expected to be enhanced by the Senior Pen Tester. The Senior Pen Tester will be expected to use their knowledge and experience to further develop internal testing processes and procedures.
Responsibilities:
In addition to performing internal application and product security assessments the Senior Pen Tester will be expected to support response to possible breaches of security based on newly disclosed information. Other key duties include:
- Conduct security evaluation and threat assessments of embedded systems, mobile applications, web applications
- Conduct research for the purposes of finding new vulnerabilities and enhancing existing capabilities
- Circumventing security protection methods and techniques
- Performing data bus monitoring (snooping) and data injection
- Conduct communications protocol analysis in the embedded products, and applications
- Conduct wireless communications channel snooping, and data injection
- Reverse engineering complex systems and protocols
- Create detailed technical reports and proof of concept code to document findings
- Perform System Breakdown of the project/product before testing, identify and evaluate all the testing requirements and plan out the detailed testing activities, resources etc.
- Proactive detailed interaction with respective engineering group on the testing needs, testing progress/status and provide detailed analysis report
- Have effective Gitlab issue management reviewing and, providing mentorship and direction on planned testing activities for junior resources in line with defined processes and procedures. Assist in leading testing activities in all the regions, provide head-to-head support to Assessment Pillar Manager and help to drive continuous improvement in testing processes and procedures.
- Thorough adherence and follow-up of VERTIV SECURE requirements and Vulnerability Management and Incident Response processes.
- Preference given to other practical skills such as: functional analysis, memory image capture, static memory analysis, and data element extraction, etc.
Qualifications:
· Additional advanced security qualifications such as CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) certification, CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) or equivalent are ideal.
· Five (5) years of experience in application security and/or security operations, with a focus on pen and mobile testing
· Solid understanding of security protocols, cryptography, authentication, authorization, and security
