Why This Role Stands Out
This role offers a unique opportunity to utilize your offensive cyber expertise to directly impact national security by performing cutting-edge Red Team assessments and penetration tests. You'll thrive here if you are a skilled operator with experience in evasion techniques and tools like Cobalt Strike, eager to mentor others and develop innovative solutions within a supportive, mission-focused team. Oak Grove Technologies provides competitive compensation and benefits, along with the flexibility of a hybrid work environment.
