[Clear reporting without shelfware]: you write clear, high impact assessment reports that executives understand and technical teams can immediately put into practice. [Continuous improvement]: you work closely with our threat intelligence, detection, and engineering teams to continuously sharpen our assessment methodology and tooling., + A monthly salary, of course. The salary range is between € 4.141 and € 5.506 + The opportunity to safeguard Europe's leading organisations + A unique culture of responsible rebellion, where you can learn from the best and get the most out of yourself + The most innovative security tools you need to get the job done + Plenty of time and opportunity to develop yourself in areas such as SOC, Incident Response and Red Teaming + A proper laptop to get the job done + Being part of a winning team, with room for fun, learning and development + A modern pension that is transparent and can be controlled by yourself + An employee share participation scheme + Compensation for your travel costs + Daily lunch on us. We prepare and enjoy it as a team A culture of 'responsible rebellion' Only (very) talented, multidisciplinary teams of threat hunters, intelligence analysts, reverse engineers, data scientists, developers and hackers are able to outsmart the increasingly professional community of cyber attackers. We pride ourselves as a force for the good and as such we think and act as responsible rebels. We are not 'just another security company', and our people are not 'just employees'. Everyone at Hunt & Hackett wants to be the best in their field and focuses at delivering next-gen levels of service. This means that we live by: * + Security first: a foundational core value that underscores our company's unwavering commitment to prioritizing security in all aspects of our operations. + Pushing the envelope: Everyone at our teams takes the responsibility to make our work better every day, by being creative to color outside of the lines if needed. + Everything is important: Tiny details have a huge impact, especially in security. We are system thinkers that oversee the big picture and who are simultaneously obsessive about details. That's why we champion tradecraft. + Perseverance: To become successful, you will have to endure challenges, errors, failures and obstacles along the way. These may take weeks, months, or years to overcome. + Ego is the enemy: Ego ultimately prevents us from learning, holds us back and makes us overreach. It is therefore important to battle that inner force that destroys great empire's, companies, careers and tears apart relationships. We'd love to hear from you!
