Remote Senior Security Analyst for the fast-growing Maltese IT startup

Our client is a Maltese IT startup focused on cybersecurity solutions. They develop products in the intersection between machine learning and IT security, a very interesting and evolving field.

The successful candidate will also be given the opportunity to participate in - and eventually lead - penetration tests when the customers require them. The company is Malta-based, however, you will be working remotely. 

 

Responsibilities:

  • Monitoring customer's setup and troubleshooting problems;

  • Threat hunting and writing security reports on their results;

  • Maintaining and improving install scripts;

  • Helping to improve the product via suggestions, scripting to automate everything, containerising applications, etc;
