As an Engineer, you will be providing support and testing M-KOPA devices for security flaws, particularly mobile phones. Physically performing hardware vulnerability reviews of M-KOPA mobiles, IoT and automotive devices, writing custom Proof-of-Concept code and carrying out internal penetration testing against applications and assisting with internal red teaming engagements.

Overview

This role would involve learning and conducting in-depth hardware penetration testing, particularly for Android mobile, iOS, and embedded systems.

Additionally, you would be assisting in the identification and discovery of hardware zero-day vulnerabilities in a range of mobile devices, applications, and the underlying kernels through hardware fuzzing, software fuzzing, and low-level reverse engineering.

Expertise

Our expectation is that you have fundamental knowledge of Android applications, IoT devices and hardware hacking, with proper understanding of firmware architectures, mobile operating systems and low-level memory interfaces such a JTAG, UFS and eMMC.

If you have experience with penetration testing / red teaming engagements, with an excellent knowledge of the Linux OS, kernel, virtualization technologies and can use a multitude of tools, from logical analyzers and oscilloscopes, to soldering irons and custom boards to access low level microprocessors and exploit challenging systems, then this might just be the role for you.

We are particularly interested in a background / experience with hardware hacking, phone hacking or phone security.
