Penetration Tester (Team Bravo)

About the job

Sentaris started in 2015 and has grown from strength to strength, often through word of mouth between CISOs and tech leaders. Given the trust our customers have in us, our reputation is of our utmost importance, and this is an attribute we look for in all potential team members.

We are growing our Team Bravo who will provide Security Assurance for low risk applications and retesting of vulnerabilities identified by our Team Alpha.

What sets us apart from the others? Well, at Sentaris, our Penetration Testers are not needing to interrupt their day with pre-sales meetings. That is done for them by our account management team. We also continually develop our backend processes to streamline and automate evidence gathering and reporting. All of these initiatives mean that our testers get to do more of what they love – testing.

We are looking for somebody with an excellent aptitude and methodology, who spends the time understanding the solution they are testing and treats OWASP as the minimum, rather than the checklist.

The successful candidate must have demonstrated proficiency in testing web applications and APIs at a minimum and must have a year of dedicated Penetration Testing experience. They also must have excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Due to the expectations of our customers, we are looking for Australian or New Zealand residents only. Candidates outside these regions will not be considered sorry.

Please be aware that part of the interview process is to be subjected to a technical interview including a live Penetration Test while sharing your screen.
