Job Description:
Coalfire Federal is a market leading cybersecurity consultancy
firm that provides independent and tailored advice, assessments,
technical testing and a full suite of cyber engineering services to
Federal agency customers. Coalfire Federal along with its parent
company, Coalfire, has an unparalleled client list with deep
customer relationships with leading cloud and technology providers
including Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, Google and Oracle and Federal
agencies. Coalfire has been a cybersecurity thought leader for
nearly 20 years, and has offices throughout the United States and
Europe and is committed to making the world a safer place by
solving our clients' toughest security challenges.
We are seeking to add to our small team of diverse infosec talent.
We do a wide variety of infosec projects across a wide variety of
technologies, and as such, find that well-rounded hackers with
experience in many different areas of tech and infosec provide the
best fit for our group. While most of our work is in the realm of
app sec, we still have do a good bit of network pen test, as well
as adversarial emulation gigs (Phishing, red teaming.) If you fancy
variety in your work, we may be a great fit for you.
We don't have a set list here, other than that our aim is to build
a technologically diverse team. We like to have a variety of
ex-developers, comp sci degrees, self-taught hackers, and reverse
engineers in our fold. If this sounds like your bag, please read
on. OSCP is a great benchmark to have, but not required. You can
work on that after joining us.
Things we love:
* Learning new tech* Breaking new and old tech* Using ghidra to
reverse those pesky binaries* Finding new risk exposure on pen
tests* Leveraging source code to enhance our burp-based dynamic
security testing* Sketching out threat models* Deconstructing
embedded/IoT firmware* Symbolic execution* Fuzzing* CTF's* Actually
enhancing the security of our clients
Tools we use:
We like cobalt strike and we love burp suite and kali. We write
burp extensions and do R&D projects when it makes sense. We use
ghidra, binja, pycharm, visual studio, USB protocol analyzers and
whatever tool or tech is best for the job. We use MacBook's with
fusion, big monitors, and clicky keyboards...blah blah blah.
Location:This is a weird one these days. We are currently remote
at-home but do want to get back to a centrally located option in
the Fairfax, Virginia area. We have recently begun getting once or
twice a month, optionally, to work together to enhance the
intangibles that doing so brings: building relationships, spit
balling ideas together, fostering a hacker-helper culture, and, of
course, eating and awesome lunch together on the company dime.
Clients:We're based in Northern Virginia, so a lot of our work is
for the government--about 50%. The other half is done for
commercial companies. We like this mix.
Certs & training:We aren't huge on certs and training beyond OffSec
but believe strongly in continual enrichment and use many paths to
do so. College Tuition, OffSec training, and other asynchronous
courses have yielded the best results in our experience, but we
remain open-minded to always find new ways.
Security Clearance:We don't hire "clearances", we hire talent and
aptitude to learn. When folks first come on, they will be put in
for public trust and government security clearances--in the
meantime, they will focus on projects that don't require them.
Our people make Coalfire great. We work together on interesting
things and achieve exceptional results. We act as trusted advisors
to our customers and are committed to client-focused innovation as
well as innovation in the industries that we serve. Coalfire offers
our people the chance to grow professionally with colleagues they
like and respect while tackling challenges that stretch their minds
and expand their skill sets. We're connected by our desire to
innovate and our goal of helping to make the world a more secure
place.
Coalfire's high energy, challenging, and fast-paced work
environment will keep you engaged and motivated. Work-life balance
is a core priority at Coalfire - we work hard and we play hard, and
the two often overlap. We host family-friendly events and happy
hours along with professional meetups and informal networking
sessions, and we're active in our communities. Plus, we offer great
benefits, including:
Coalfire is an EEO employer.
