Penetration Tester / Red Team Engineer
Assurity Trusted Solutions (ATS) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Government Technology Agency (GovTech). As a Trusted Partner over the last decade. ATS offers a comprehensive suite of products and services ranging from infrastructure and operational services, governance and assurance services as well as managed processes. In a dynamic digital & cyber landscape where trust & collaboration is key, ATS continues to drive mutually beneficial business outcomes through collaboration with GovTech, government agencies and commercial partners to mitigate cyber risks and bolster security postures.
Key responsibilities:
- Lead penetration testing and red teaming for systems under the CISO’s remit, covering both corporate systems and internal product teams.
- Plan and execute tests for:
- Web, cloud, network and API applications,
- Cloud workloads (e.g. government cloud platforms, containerised workloads, CI/CD paths),
- Data platforms (e.g. data lakes / lakehouses and large-scale analytics platforms),
- Enterprise / internal platforms (e.g. identity, collaboration, and developer tooling, as well as other approved SaaS).
- Identify and validate end-to-end attack paths across identity, endpoints, networks, data platforms and SaaS integrations; document realistic threat scenarios and impact.
- Manage PT engagements with external vendors / programmes (including GBBP or similar):
- Define rules of engagement and scope,
- Prepare environments and access,
- Review reports for depth and quality and consolidate findings for product owners.
- Produce clear, prioritised reports and briefings for engineering teams and management, and support remediation planning, retesting and closure.
- Design and own standard PT environment patterns, including:
- PT workstations and hardened images,
- Appropriate network zones and access controls,
- Realistic but non-sensitive test tenants and seeded datasets.
- Work with infra and central engineering teams to integrate PT tooling and automation where appropriate and ensure sufficient logging / telemetry for red and purple teaming.
- Co-author PT / red team policies and standards within Govtech, and act as implementation lead for product teams.
- Translate policy into practical guidance, templates and checklists so product and platform teams can plan and execute PT in a consistent, compliant way.
Requirements
- Experience: At least 2 years of hands-on penetration testing (web and API), with exposure to cloud-native / containerised applications, data platforms and/or enterprise SaaS; experience working with SOC or on purple teaming is a plus.
- Technical skills: Strong grasp of common attack techniques (e.g. OWASP, cloud/API), solid PT tooling skills, and working knowledge of web, network and cloud security; able to read and reason about code and infrastructure.
- Qualifications: OSCP is required (or clearly equivalent demonstrated skill level); other offensive or cloud security certifications are a plus.
- Personal attributes: Clear communicator, comfortable operating as an individual contributor while influencing cross-functional teams, with high integrity and a pragmatic, outcome-focused mindset.
