• Share your expertise as part of wider projects in red teaming, IT risks, and regulatory frameworks.
• Engage in team problem-solving efforts and contribute ideas to overcome client challenges.
• Support business development activities, such as preparing proposals and presentations.

• Participation in CTF events, hacking challenges like Hack The Box, or bug bounty programs.
• A completed Bachelor’s or Master’s degree with a strong academic record in computer science or a similar field.
• A good understanding of the OWASP Top 10 and certifications related to penetration testing, such as OSCP or OSWE, are a strong advantage.
• Fluency in English is essential; proficiency in German and/or French is a significant advantage.
