Red Team Operator

“Security is not just a technological challenge.
If it were, technology would have already won a long time ago.
Security is a challenge of people,
a social and organizational challenge.
It is a cultural challenge.”

If, like us, you believe in this idea and are passionate about this challenge, you might be interested in the role of Red Team Operator within our Offensive Security Team.

IMQ Intuity is a company exclusively focused on cybersecurity, composed of two complementary areas with the shared goal of helping clients understand the “Cyber Security” problem, how it impacts their business, and how to address it effectively.

• Offensive Security: responsible for performing simulated cyber attacks (Red Team), penetration testing, physical security testing, and threat intelligence.
• Consulting and Training: focused on improving companies’ security posture through consulting, assessments, policy definition, and training.

Red Team Operator

The person we are looking for, working closely with the team, will be responsible for the following activities, for which we expect a good level of autonomy:

• Conduct penetration tests on networks, systems, and web applications to identify security weaknesses
• Proactively identify and exploit vulnerabilities in systems and networks to improve a company’s security posture
• Perform tests on Active Directory and internal networks, identifying authentication weaknesses, misconfigurations, and privilege escalation paths
• Support offensive operations by actively participating in attack phases, executing practical tests based on planned tactics
• Contribute to the creation of realistic social engineering scenarios, supporting the preparation of pretexts and persuasion techniques to simulate internal and external threats aimed at evaluating the human factor in corporate security
• Write detailed reports with risk assessments, highlighting weaknesses, exploited vulnerabilities, and recommended corrective measures
• Present technical results to clients and management, adjusting the level of detail to the audience
• Ensure high-quality service and maintain constant communication with clients regarding technical activities
