Vulnerability Researcher with Security Clearance

Company Overview
CCG is a technology company focused on equipping customers with the capabilities and support to conduct intelligent and successful cyber operations. We do this by finding the most talented engineers and operators in the country, give them some of the most challenging problems facing the US government, and help them unleash their creativity and problem-solving skills. Excellence is our standard and mission success is our metric. Role
As a member of the Security Research team, you will imagine weaknesses in multiple types of systems and then find, demonstrate/document, and exploit those weaknesses. You will be joining a team of mature and extremely competent Security Researchers to breakdown and fully understand how a host of different systems function. You will need to leverage extensive experience performing static and dynamic analysis and must be familiar with multiple classes of vulnerabilities. Additionally, you must be extremely comfortable communicating with team members, technical partners, and non-technical partners alike. The ideal candidate will be comfortable and confident operating at the early phases of a vulnerability research project and have the mettle to see the project through to multiple phases and iterations. Responsibilities
Perform vulnerability research and reverse engineering for customer tasks Perform static and dynamic analysis by applying research tools such as disassemblers, debuggers, and fuzzers
Perform exploit development which leverage discovered vulnerabilities Be able to communicate security research findings internally and, when and where it is appropriate, externally Minimum Qualifications
