Two Six Technologies is actively seeking a Lead Software Reverse Engineer to join our Trusted Electronics & Effects team. The team comprises highly skilled individuals passionate about low-level programming, firmware analysis, and vulnerability research. The team is growing and looking for someone with a strong C/C++ and assembly background who understands how to reverse-engineer hardware and software across various architectures to detect zero-day vulnerabilities.

What you will do

• Lead the planning and execution of technical research tasks, providing direction to team members on task prioritization and schedule management to meet mission-critical objectives.
• Utilize exemplar techniques to reverse engineer wireless and embedded systems, identifying deep-seated vulnerabilities and exercising sound judgment to assess their security impact.
• Develop organized and maintainable proof-of-concept exploits while breaking down complex deliverables into manageable technical milestones for the research team.
• Operate with significant autonomy to analyze firmware, software protections, and wireless protocols, often exploring new principles where limited references exist.
• Serve as a technical lead in a fast-paced environment, collaborating with CNO developers and hardware engineers.

What you will need (basic qualifications)

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer/Electrical Engineering, or a related field with typically 7+ years of experience in a similar technical role.
• Extensive experience with programming and scripting languages including C/C++, Python, and Assembly within Linux command-line environments.
• Proven expertise in reverse engineering and vulnerability research using industry-standard tools such as IDA Pro, Binary Ninja, or Ghidra.
• Demonstrated experience leading a team of engineers or researchers, including the ability to provide technical direction and manage project schedules.
• Technical proficiency in firmware analysis (ARM, MIPS, PowerPC, RTOS), firmware rehosting (QEMU), or advanced exploit development.
• Experience reverse engineering network communication protocols using Wireshark, tcpdump, or other hardware-level tools.
