Malware / Reverse Engineer - U

SecureTech Malware Engineers make a difference every day in support of the U.S. federal government.

We analyze and evaluate malicious code to create technical reports for indicators of compromise and to recommend mitigation and detection actions. We work and train to continually improve current malware analysis techniques, and identify new ways to improve malware identification best practices.

Pulled from the full job description

• Paid time off, We really do consider employees first in decisions. It is hard enough to work through the personal/social/technical hurdles that come with your position as a cleared defense contractor - no need to fight your own employer’s red tape as well.
• We offer a compensation package that is more than just commensurate with this closed contractor community. We offer generous benefits (PTO, training support, etc) in addition to the high salaries. We know that you know - salary isn’t everything.
• SecureTech is an Equal Opportunity Employer - we hire the right people for the job - regardless of employment status such as female, minority, protected veterans, individuals with disabilities, etc. Our concern is that you are qualified for the position, and that you are placed in a position in which you can be successful!
