  • Ability to read and write C and assembly languages as needed (ARM, MIPS, x86_64) with minimal oversight or supervision
  • Strong programming fundamentals; particularly with networking, data structures, and data models
  • Understanding of exploitation techniques such as leveraging arbitrary read-write primitives, shellcoding, and return-oriented programming / jump-oriented programming

 

Preferred Experience

 

  • OS and kernel reverse engineering 
  • Understanding of fuzzers such as AFL++ or libfuzzer
  • Understanding of common exploit mitigation mechanisms such as SELinux, Seccomp, ASLR, and CFI.
  • Understanding of dynamic analysis with gdb/gdbserver and similar tools
