Dark Wolf Solutions is looking for a Penetration Tester/Red Team Tester who will plan and perform continuous cross-domain vulnerability assessments and penetration testing following the customer’s prescribed scope statement with authorities. The ideal candidate must display familiarity with cloud-based Windows and Linux operating systems and environments and be able to conduct network and application security vulnerability analysis. Specifically, the candidate will analyze mission systems to help identify potential vulnerabilities and help to provide remediation strategies to customers for these issues. The successful candidate must have prior experience with multiple facets of penetration testing, using both open source and proprietary tools. Conducts open source research on clients and their infrastructure to help identify data leakage could lead to vulnerabilities. Correlates threat data from various sources.

Prepares assessments and presentations of analyses and findings. Develops and maintains analytical procedures to meet changing requirements and ensure maximum operations.


Candidates may be asked to move between projects and participate in either single engagement penetration tests or continuous engagement Red Teams. The position will primarily require the candidate to work with a team of penetration testers, helping to lead and conduct varied testing efforts against applications and networks both for commercial entities and the federal government. Candidates may also lead a Red Team and be expected to develop a continuous campaign-based assessment that emulates the target’s real-world adversaries by developing new tools specific to the target. Candidates will be expected to integrate into ongoing testing efforts, requiring subject matter expertise in multiple disciplines of vulnerability testing and assessment, the ability to interact and liaison directly with clients and a strong ability to write and document findings. Travel is required on occasional basis for clients requiring onsite testing.
