  • Work with PTaaS platforms and contribute to the management of ongoing assessments
  • Collaborate with wider security teams to validate detections and improve defensive capabilities
  • Stay current with emerging attack techniques, vulnerabilities, and threat actor tactics

What We're Looking For

  • 2–4 years of hands-on experience in penetration testing or red team engagements
  • Arabic speaker with strong English communication skills
  • Experience with tools such as Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nmap, Nessus, Cobalt Strike (or similar)
  • Knowledge of Active Directory attack techniques including Kerberoasting, Pass-the-Hash, and BloodHound
  • Strong understanding of OWASP Top 10 and web application security testing
  • Experience scripting in Python, Bash, or PowerShell
  • Ability to manage multiple engagements and work independently while maintaining high ethical standards
  • Nice to Have
  • Certifications such as OSCP, eJPT, PNPT, or CEH
  • Experience testing cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • Participation in bug bounty programmes or CTF competitions
  • Knowledge of GCC cybersecurity frameworks and regulations
  • Exposure to External Attack Surface Management (EASM) or digital risk protection solutions
  • What's on Offer
  • Exposure to high-profile offensive security engagements across the GCC
  • Significant opportunities for technical growth and career progression
  • Access to leading security tooling and modern penetration testing platforms
  • Ongoing training and certification support
  • A collaborative environment where your work has genuine impact on clients and the wider security practice
