About the job

As a Mandiant Red Team Consulting team member, you will be responsible for assessing and advising clients on both technical and process-based controls for all manner of environments. You will perform Red and Purple Team assessments, including adversarial emulation of cyber attacks against customer organizations, and other technical cyber assessments including external pen testing, web application, mobile, and wireless security testing. You will expand the team’s capabilities through tool creation, research on offensive techniques, incorporation of threat actor intelligence, internal presentations, and knowledge sharing.

Mandiant’s Red Team delivers intelligence-driven adversarial emulation that mirrors real-world cyber threats. Operating covertly and with zero prior knowledge of an environment, our experts simulate the full lifecycle of a targeted attack. From initial social engineering and perimeter breaches to stealthy lateral movement, objective hunting, and data exfiltration, we challenge security teams to detect and neutralize a sophisticated adversary before an actual breach occurs.

Part of Google Cloud, Mandiant is a recognized leader in dynamic cyber defense, threat intelligence and incident response services. Mandiant's cybersecurity expertise has earned the trust of security professionals and company executives around the world. Our unique combination of renowned frontline experience responding to some of the most complex breaches, nation-state grade threat intelligence, machine intelligence, and the industry's best security validation ensures that Mandiant knows more about today's advanced threats than anyone.
