  • Good understanding of how networks work (OSI and TCP/IP models), particularly with a focus on VPNs.
  • Experience working with stakeholders to define the scope of security tests and identify remediation actions to address any vulnerabilities.
  • Knowledge of secure coding practices, particularly differences between various low-level languages (C, C++, Rust) and their security considerations.

  • Experience with different OS (Linux, Android, iOS, macOS, Windows) security topics.
  • Ability to build and maintain relationships and influence key stakeholders across the business.
