Senior Vulnerability Researcher

A senior vulnerability researcher on Accenture Federal Services' advanced cyber capabilities team, supporting global cyber missions from a small group inside a large programme that spans classified and unclassified work. The researcher analyses vulnerabilities in Linux, Windows and embedded systems, reverse engineers binaries with Ghidra, Binary Ninja, IDA Pro and WinDbg, works with RF, wire-level and routing protocols, writes C/C++, Python and Bash, tests cyber tools in virtualised labs, records and interprets results, reports weekly to government clients and mentors junior researchers.

The team wants deep Python, cyber tool testing and network threat hunting experience, prior support of military or government cyber operations, a technical degree or equivalent military background, and an active TS/SCI clearance. Occasional weekend work, long hours and travel may be needed. Based in Herndon, VA.
