Job description
Who we are
We're a specialized cybersecurity team working on safety-critical automotive systems. Our expertise in reverse engineering complex platforms enables us to uncover vulnerabilities and analyze proprietary implementations. Our work spans the entire security lifecycle, from early product design to verification. We design and build complete security solutions based on our research findings, automate security assessments, and develop both offensive and defensive capabilities to establish robust security boundaries for critical systems. Our team works directly with manufacturers, translating security requirements into concrete implementations while guiding architecture decisions against realistic threats.
What we do
Reverse engineer custom security solutions to identify weaknesses
Build custom offensive and defensive tools to aid in research
Reverse engineer, design, and implement security solutions from the ground up
Consult on product designs, translating security requirements into concrete implementations
Work directly with clients, guiding security architecture decisions
Transform theoretical security concepts into practical implementations that protect critical systems
Technical areas
Our work spans several demanding technical domains:
RF / Wireless Signals Analysis: Researching secure communication protocols and wireless implementations
Vulnerability Research: Discovering security issues through systematic investigation and creating effective mitigations
Security Tool Development: Building specialized offensive and defensive tools that both attack and protect critical systems
Advanced Analytics: Creating analytical frameworks that process security-relevant data at scale
Architecture Assessment: Designing secure system architectures and evaluating security across integrated components
Firmware Security: Researching secure firmware architectures and validating existing implementations to ensure security boundaries
Hardware Analysis: Analysis of secure hardware designs and identifying weaknesses in physical components
This challenging work demands technical precision, creative problem-solving, and security engineering from first principles. Our cybersecurity team includes specialists who can both build and break complex systems.
Why Join Us
Design and build security solutions that protect critical automotive systems
Work from first principles to create both offensive and defensive security capabilities
Build meaningful client relationships with major manufacturers
Work with cutting-edge equipment and computing resources
Develop professionally through challenging projects and knowledge sharing
Enjoy work flexibility with balanced scheduling options
Collaborate in our modern Eindhoven office with dedicated labs
Join an international team (Hallo! Hoi! 你好! ¡Hola! Привет! ﻣرﺣﺑﺎ!)
Job requirements
Who you are:
You are either a skilled reverse engineer or a developer who thrives working alongside reverse engineers. You have strong skills in either system security assessment or secure development, with interest in growing across both domains. You might excel at finding vulnerabilities through reverse engineering or at building secure implementations and tooling. You take initiative on problems within your expertise while collaborating on challenges outside it. You communicate technical concepts effectively and appreciate the importance of teamwork in security research. You approach your work with appropriate care, recognizing the safety implications of automotive systems. We don't expect mastery of every skill — we're looking for specialists who want to learn and contribute to a balanced security team.
Must haves - Required for all candidates:
Experience with reverse engineering or software development in at least one compiled language that produces native machine code (C/C++, Rust, Go, etc.)
Demonstrated technical writing skills for detailed documentation of architecture, findings, and methodologies
Technical curiosity and methodical investigation skills
Specialized skills (candidates should have at least one):
Skills in reverse engineering complex systems with minimal documentation
Analytical approach to finding technical weaknesses
Ability to explain technical concepts clearly to different audiences
Risk analysis and application of technical regulations to technical architecture
Public speaking and technical knowledge sharing
Advanced development skills, such as: Linux primitives, Big-data, Binary protocol manipulation, etc.
