JOB DESCRIPTION:
Reporting to the Attack Surface Reduction Senior Manager, the Security Testing Senior Analyst plays a key role in the structured planning, coordination, and oversight of offensive security activities. This position focuses on scoping red‑team assessments, coordinating logistics, managing stakeholder engagement, tracking remediation progress, and ensuring successful end‑to‑end delivery of penetration testing initiatives. The analyst will ensure red‑team engagements are executed efficiently, aligned with business priorities, and effectively communicated across the organization.
Your Responsibilities:
Lead the scoping and definition of red‑team and adversarial simulation engagements, including determining goals, targets, timelines, and rules of engagement.
Coordinate with business units, IT teams, and leadership to gather requirements, understand operational constraints, and ensure testing activities align with business risk.
Develop structured engagement plans, including resource planning, attack paths, testing schedules, and expected deliverables.
Serve as the primary point of contact throughout the engagement lifecycle—ensuring smooth communication, managing expectations, and documenting key decisions.
Track remediation activities, ensuring findings are clearly documented, assigned to responsible teams, monitored to completion, and remediated within defined SLAs.
Host recurring remediation review sessions with stakeholders to validate progress and support their efforts in resolving identified weaknesses.
Maintain a detailed engagement tracker for planning, scheduling, resource allocation, remediation status, and operational metrics.
Support and occasionally lead technical testing activities where required, including reconnaissance, vulnerability validation, and assisting testers with environmental access and logistics.
Prepare and deliver reports, dashboards, and executive summaries that clearly communicate risk, findings, remediation status, and testing outcomes.
Partner with security operations, detection engineering, and infrastructure teams to ensure lessons learned are integrated into continuous improvement efforts.
Stay informed on emerging threats, industry best practices, and advances in offensive security methodologies.
Contribute to the ongoing maturity of the offensive security and red‑team governance model, including process improvements, documentation, and reporting automation.
Maintain a strong focus on customer experience, ensuring all engagements balance security value with business operational needs.
Your Profile:
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or equivalent experience.
Minimum of 3+ years in offensive security, penetration testing, vulnerability management, security threat assessment, or related roles.
Experience in scoping and planning technical security assessments (red team, penetration testing, adversarial simulations, or similar).
Strong understanding of offensive security principles, common attack vectors, and the general testing lifecycle.
Demonstrated experience in remediation tracking, stakeholder coordination, and cross‑functional communication.
Ability to translate complex technical findings into clear business risk and actionable remediation plans.
Familiarity with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, OWASP Top 10, NIST, CIS, and ISO security standards.
Strong organizational skills, with proven ability to manage multiple concurrent engagements.
Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship‑building skills.
Relevant certifications such as Security+, CySA+, GSEC, OSCP, CRTO, or similar are a plus.
