Position Role Type:
Unspecified
Position Description:
Vulnerability researchers at Raytheon CODEX analyze systems to understand how they work and how they behave when they break. Candidates must be able to play both sides of the fence, both developing and defeating new and advanced security techniques. Projects are undertaken in small teams with close coordination with customers. All our engineers write code, but many of our engineers spend as much time taking systems apart as building new ones. A typical day can involve studying disassembly or writing Python to audit a piece of C++ code.
Information security continues to be a growth industry. We are constantly looking to find the right candidates who can do this challenging work.
Required Skills:
- Experience with C or C++
- Typically requires 4+ years of professional experience
- 3 or more of the "desired skills" below
Desired Skills:
- Understanding of OS Internals (any major OS)
- Experience with Vulnerability Research
- Experience reading or writing assembly (x86, x64, ARM, PPC, MIPS, SPARC, 68k, or others)
- Experience developing embedded systems
- Understanding of network protocols (TCP/IP stacks, wire-level protocols, RF communications, BGP, routing protocols, or others).
- Understanding of exploit mitigations such as DEP and ASLR
- Experience using reverse engineering tools such as IDA Pro, HexRays, Ghidra, Binary Ninja, or objdump.
- Experience using debuggers such as gdb, WinDbg, OllyDbg
- Experience with BDI/JTAG
- Experience with modern C++ development, such as RAII, C++11 and C++14.
- Experience building and using tools to find, exploit, and productize vulnerabilities in complex software systems
