Full Description
HIRING: ELITE ETHICAL HACKERS / RED TEAMERS This could be the best hacking experience you’ll ever have. I am not looking for beginners. I am looking for highly skilled, experienced, and technically driven security professionals who have already spent years breaking systems, researching vulnerabilities, conducting penetration tests, and going beyond standard security assessments. I am building a small, elite ethical hacking team for a confidential cybersecurity project across Delhi / NCR / Uttar Pradesh / Haryana. This is an authorized security testing engagement where selected team members will get the opportunity to work with real physical systems in a controlled testing environment. Areas of expertise Advanced Web & API Penetration Testing Network & Infrastructure Security Cloud Security Reverse Engineering Binary Exploitation & Vulnerability Research Applied Cryptography OS Internals & Endpoint Security Firmware / Boot Security Advanced Application Security Runtime Analysis & Debugging Red Teaming & Attack-Chain Development Certifications Certifications are not mandatory. OSCP, OSEP, OSWE, OSED, CRTO, PNPT, eCPPT, or equivalent certifications are a plus. However, demonstrated technical ability matters far more than certifications. Who should apply?
I am particularly interested in individuals who have
- Several years of hands-on cybersecurity experience
- Conducted professional penetration tests
- Discovered serious vulnerabilities
- Published security research
- Participated in advanced CTFs
- Built offensive-security tools
- Reverse-engineered software
- Worked on exploit development
- Discovered CVEs
- A strong GitHub, research, or technical portfolio
- A proven ability to investigate systems beyond automated tools
- This is not a training program.
- This is not a beginner internship.
- This is not another CTF.
- I am looking for people who already know how to hack and want to put those skills against a real-world system in a controlled and authorized environment.
Location: Delhi / NCR / Uttar Pradesh / Haryana
Project: Confidential
Roles: Ethical Hackers / Red Teamers / Security Researchers
Engagement: Authorized Security Testing If you believe you have the technical depth required, DM me with your profile, GitHub/portfolio/CTF profile, and your strongest area of expertise. Limited positions. If you have always wanted to test real systems in a real physical lab rather than another simulated environment, this is the kind of opportunity you have been waiting for.
