Cybersecurity Engineer (Red Team) - Relocate Dubai,UAE
Top 3 reasons to join us

- Collaborate with team of diverse nationalities
- Opportunity to become a key member in UAE team
Job description
Function
Run adversary emulation end-to-end, then feed actionable detection intel back to Blue/Purple. When the op tempo dips, slide into full-stack penetesting to keep the bench at zero.
Core Responsibilities
1. Adversary Operations
- Plan and execute campaigns from initial access (phish, macro, cloud mis-config) to objective (data theft, privilege escalation).
- Maintain strict OPSEC: staged infra, domain fronting, cleanup, and burn plans.
2. C2 & Payload Engineering
- Build/operate C2 infrastructure (Cobalt/Sliver/DIY), develop loaders, droppers, and phishing kits.
- Craft cloud-aware implants (AWS STS, Azure MSGraph abuse) and identity-persistence mechanisms.
3. Replayable TTP Kits
- Package attack chains into Atomic/Caldera/custom modules so Blue can replay them.
- Document expected telemetry and detection logic.
4. Exploit / Malware R&D
- Research new vulns, develop PoCs that integrate with ops tooling, weaponise only when ROI justifies.
5. Purple-Team Loop
- After every op, debrief D&R: dwell-time vs controls, missed alerts, log gaps.
- Tune SIEM/EDR rules or write Sigma/YARA as needed.
6. Pentest Backfill (rotational)
- Deliver scoped web/API/infra/cloud tests when red-team bandwidth allows.
Your skills and experience
Must-Have Skills
- EDR/XDR evasion tradecraft (userland, kernel callbacks, signed-driver abuse).
- C2 operations & traffic shaping (HTTPS, DNS-over-HTTPS, redirectors).
- Phishing & initial-access infrastructure (GoPhish, custom HTML/Office macros).
- Windows internals & attack paths (LSASS abuse, AMSI bypass, AD CS misconfigs).
- Cloud post-exploitation (STS token pivots, Azure automation accounts, GCP IAM).
- Scripting / exploit dev in C/C++, C#, Python, or Rust.
- Evidence & report discipline: reproducible steps, IOC timeline, exec-level summary.
Nice-to-Have
- Kernel-mode driver dev, boot-kit research, or macOS/Linux implant experience.
- Public CVE credit or conference talks.
- CREST CRT, OSCE3, or CRTO II.
Soft Skills:
- Strong proficiency in both written and spoken English.
- Adaptability to thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and remote work settings.
- Effective team player with excellent collaboration and interpersonal skills.
- Ability to perform under pressure with a positive attitude and a focus on team success.
- Demonstrates high levels of responsibility, reliability, and accountability.
- Willingness and ability to travel internationally when required.
