This role will be pivotal in building, delivering, and driving the security of our mobile platform, while being an integral part of our full-stack mobile practice, contributing to end-to-end development and security excellence across both front-end and back-end mobile systems.

Key aspects of the role include:

  • Design and Delivery of a World-Class Security Framework: Lead the design and delivery of security services, including mobile penetration testing, research, consultancy, and advisory engagements.

  • Strategic Planning: Translate business objectives into technical strategy and ensure technical roadmaps align with long-term client goals.
  • Agile Practices: Expertise in Agile methodologies, with a focus on resolving impediments and driving adoption across teams.
  • Client Engagement: Communicate effectively with clients, manage expectations, and provide practical, risk-based security recommendations.
  • Continuous Improvement & Collaboration: Drive innovation, adopt emerging security practices, share knowledge, and support team success.

What you'll bring:

We are seeking a highly technical expert with a strong focus on mobile platform security. You should bring:

  • Mobile Security Expertise: Strong hands-on knowledge of Android and iOS security fundamentals, common mobile threats and vulnerabilities, security architecture, controls, and mitigation techniques.
  • Mobile Security Testing: Practical experience in mobile penetration testing, security assessments, threat modelling, and implementing or assessing security controls.
  • Security Problem Solving: A systematic and analytical approach to identifying, investigating, and resolving mobile security issues.
  • Authentication & Cryptography: Strong understanding of authentication, authorisation, cryptography, encryption, and secure design principles, with the ability to recommend appropriate cryptographic controls.
  • Continuous Improvement: A proactive approach to improving security practices, tooling, controls, and ways of working.

Desirable knowledge & experience:

  • Mobile Security Tooling & Analysis: Experience with reverse engineering, analysis techniques, and tools such as Burp Suite Pro, Frida, Objection, JADX, IDA Pro, Hopper, Radare, ADB, Apktool, YARA, Xcode, and Android Studio.
  • Mobile Development & DevSecOps: Knowledge of Android/iOS development, secure development practices, DevSecOps tooling, testing, and automation frameworks.
  • Development & Reverse Engineering: Familiarity with C, Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, Swift, JavaScript, Python or Bash, and ideally ARM/ARM64 assembly.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
