Job Description
Reporting to the Offensive Cyber Operations Team Lead, you are responsible for conducting advanced security assessments—including automated and manual testing—across a wide range of technologies and systems. As a senior technical assessor, you participate in the planning, execution, and reporting of complex security tests designed to emulate real-world adversaries. You are a key member of the Offensive Cyber Operations (OCO) team and are expected to contribute to threat modeling, emergent technology research, and a high-tempo testing schedule. You will routinely collaborate with a diverse group of security testing professionals and may be required to travel domestically and internationally to support assessment activities.
Expectations for the Offensive Cyber Security Senior Associate:
- Conduct automated and manual security tests of information systems, including analysis of vulnerability scan results, compliance findings, and penetration test data.
- Utilize advanced techniques such as threat modeling, threat simulation, and social engineering to assess system risk.
- Research and understand a wide variety of existing and emerging technologies relevant to assessment activities.
- Develop test plans, create operational schedules, execute tests, and prepare detailed after-action reports.
- Document all activities in accordance with DTCC Information Security Policies and Offensive Cyber Operations team standard operating procedures.
- Participate in year-round testing cycles based on criticality, threat modeling, and new points of vulnerability (NPOV).
- Collaborate with teammates to support large, complex, and multi-assessor security projects.
- Travel up to 10% to support global testing activities.
- Maintain strong professional bearing and represent the team effectively when interacting with system owners and business stakeholders.
- Have at least five (5) years of professional-level experience in one or more technical disciplines, including Penetration Testing, Networking, Firewalls, Server Administration, Encryption, Cloud, Containers, Databases, or Software Development.
- Possess hands-on, expert-level technical proficiency in at least one critical skill area, supported by relevant certifications.
- Hold (or be working toward) multiple professional or associate-level certifications, such as CISSP, GCIH, MCSE, CCNP, RHCE, GPEN, GWAPT, OSCP, MPCE, or CEH.
- Demonstrate advanced understanding of adversarial tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
- Be proficient with multiple open-source and commercial security tools (e.g., Nessus, Burp Suite, AppDetective, Metasploit, NMAP).
- Understand the strengths, weaknesses, configuration requirements, and troubleshooting needs of common security tools.
- Have strong proficiency working with both UNIX-based and Microsoft operating systems, with deep systems engineering experience in at least one of them.
- Understand security guidelines such as NIST 800-53 and NIST 800-115.
- Be able to synthesize and analyze large volumes of data from complex systems.
- Demonstrate the ability to clearly articulate technical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Exhibit strong critical-thinking ability and creativity in designing and executing test approaches.
