Washington, Washington, D.C., United States Leidos Full time $107,900 - $195,050

Software Reverse Engineer – Job Description

Who We Are
Kudu Dynamics is Leidos Owned Company, forged out of a decade of experience in computer network operations and staffed with talent who have built, overseen, and enhanced capabilities throughout the entire USG arsenal. Our team of hackers and engineers have experience spanning centuries of research, development, and operations missions - across desktop, mobile, IoT, and embedded platforms. Kudu Dynamics, a Leidos company is uniquely qualified to anticipate tomorrow's threats and build the next generation of capabilities.
 
Job Description:
Our team is working to develop novel and innovative cybersecurity capabilities. The Software Engineer will be part of a team developing a computer exploitation framework. Working closely with reverse engineers and vulnerability researchers, this position will develop a usable framework for software exploitation running in a highly constrained environment. Particular emphasis will be on building testable exploit chains, working to ensure reliability even in an unknown environment. It's the kind of job where you get to poke holes in real systems and look for things that make you stop and go "huh, that's weird…" This role will go from initial analysis of target systems all the way up to testing for reliability for mission-critical scenarios.
 
Required Qualifications:

  • A U.S. citizen with an active Top Secret security clearance and SCI eligibility.

  • Expertise in C/C++ (C Preferred).

  • Knowledge of data structures, performance optimization / tuning, multi-threading.

  • Expertise in at least one scripting language (Python preferred).

Key Responsibilities:

  • Taking Proof of Concept vulnerabilities and extending them into robust, reliable exploits.

  • Maintaining a CI/CD pipeline for testing framework plugins.

  • Extending framework features as needed.

  • Working with vulnerability researchers to integrate proof of concepts into the framework.

 
Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with one or more assembly languages (x86, MIPS, ARM, etc).

  • Experience with hardware reverse engineering.

  • Experience with real-time embedded systems.

  • Experience with signal processing.

At Leidos, we don't want someone who "fits the mold"—we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, "what's next?" before the dust settles on "what's now."

If you're already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You'll fit right in.

Original Posting:January 8,

For U.S. Positions: While subject to change based on business needs, Leidos reasonably anticipates that this job requisition will remain open for at least 3 days with an anticipated close date of no earlier than 3 days after the original posting date as listed above.

Pay Range:Pay Range $107, $195,050.00

The Leidos pay range for this job level is a general guideline only and not a guarantee of compensation or salary. Additional factors considered in extending an offer include (but are not limited to) responsibilities of the job, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity, alignment with market data, applicable bargaining agreement (if any), or other law.
