Senior Red Team Operator
About us
As a fast-growing tech company, we’re looking for builders and innovators — people who thrive in the face of uncertainty and are motivated to make an impact. We are also looking for true teammates — people who are genuine, humble, and driven to level up together. If you're excited to shape the future, contribute to an energetic company culture, and work at the cutting edge of blockchain technology, we want you to join our team and help us lead the charge!
About the opportunity
As a senior member of the Figment Security Team, you'll plan and run full-scope adversary emulation across all of Figment's products and platforms, from conventional cloud and application infrastructure to build pipelines and crypto systems. You'll own engagements end-to-end: evaluating environments to find vulnerabilities, building the attack scenarios to prove them out, and seeing your findings drive real fixes.
This role is as much about partnership as it is about offense. You'll work directly with stakeholders and the blue team to communicate findings clearly, recommend practical mitigations, and help strengthen our overall security posture.
How you will make an impact
Plan and execute red team engagements, pentests, and ad-hoc assessments against cloud, development pipelines, web and application layers, source code, and more
Apply attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures safely within Figment environments, including detection-evasion work
Produce clear reports and presentations tailored to both technical and executive audiences
Partner with stakeholders, including technical staff, leadership, and legal counsel, to translate findings into risk-appropriate, actionable recommendations
Collaborate with the blue team to suggest mitigations, validate fixes, and improve defensive coverage
Mentor blue team members and lead cross-team exercises such as purple teaming
Support incident response with offensive security technical expertise and contribute to post-incident action plans
Build and improve red team tooling, scripts, infrastructure, methodologies, and documentation
What you bring to the team
Experience with and strong understanding of cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and supply chains
Demonstrated use of AI tools to accelerate offensive work (LLM-assisted code review, payload generation, recon, report drafting), with sound judgment about where they help versus where manual testing is required
Offensive expertise in container orchestration: attacking and escaping Docker and Kubernetes (container breakout, RBAC abuse, misconfiguration exploitation)
Experience performing API and web application assessments
Experience performing source code review for security flaws
Experience building automations that chain red team tooling together, cutting manual effort across recon, exploitation, and reporting
Strong written and verbal communication conveying findings, risk, and remediation to engineers, stakeholders, and executives
Bonus if you have
Industry certifications such as OSCP/OSCE, OSEP, OSWE, GPEN, GCPN, GWAPT, or GXPN
Solid understanding and experience working with GitHub and GitHub Actions
Programming skills as well as the ability to read and assess applications written in multiple languages such as Go, Rust, and Ruby
Understanding of security risks for blockchain and crypto
