What You’ll Be Doing

  • Conduct all security assessments within our dedicated in-house lab environment, ensuring safe and controlled testing conditions.
  • Perform hands‑on penetration testing across hardware, software, and telecoms‑specific technologies to identify vulnerabilities in complex systems.
  • Apply both positive and negative testing techniques to rigorously assess network functions, protocols, and system resilience. Develop scripts and automate testing processes to enhance efficiency, consistency, and repeatability—freeing up time for deeper, high‑impact research.
