- Develop and enforce processes for secure application validation and vetting before inclusion in our enterprise app store.
- Collaborate with engineering, product, and security operations teams to ensure secure integration of third‑party apps and updates.
- Investigate and respond to complex security incidents related to malicious code or unauthorized software behavior.
- Mentor junior analysts and conduct code reviews, threat assessments, and post‑analysis documentation.
- Stay updated on threat intelligence, CVEs, malware trends, and vulnerabilities affecting third‑party software.
- Assist in compliance efforts and contribute to internal policies and procedures related to software assurance.
- 4-6 years in cybersecurity, with strong expertise in malware analysis, reverse engineering, or secure software validation.
- Experience with sandboxing technologies, debuggers, and disassemblers.
- In‑depth understanding of Windows and Linux internals, including process management, memory architecture, file systems, and kernel operations, along with strong expertise in binary analysis and common malware obfuscation techniques.
- Proficient with tools such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, Wireshark, YARA, etc.
- Strong scripting skills (Python, Power Shell, or similar) for automation of analysis workflows.
- Familiarity with digital signature validation, hashing techniques, and secure code practices.
- Experience in MDM, endpoint security, or enterprise security platforms is a plus.
