Thank you for considering GRIMM
Challenge Development Lead The GRIMM AppSec team works with clients to assess and improve the security posture of applications and systems in partnership with client architects, developers, operators, and leadership. This includes formalized threat modeling, architecture review, source review, and where appropriate binary reverse engineering. Our goal is not to provide a compliance check box, but to actively work with our clients to improve their security, now and in the future.
GRIMM is seeking a senior engineer to lead and support security assessment engagements. This is a customer-facing position; qualified applicants will need to be comfortable engaging with clients on their own to gather and refine requirements, discuss findings, present progress, and also to help establish and expand business relationships with our customers.
All members of our team are constantly learning about new topics and applying that knowledge to challenging problems. We all share information and help guide each other as a team, and everyone has opportunity to work independently and direct their own activities.
Education and Certification A degree or comparable work experience is required in the fields of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline. Degreed or certified candidates will not receive preferential consideration. If a specific certification is required by a client GRIMM will cover certification costs.

Travel will be less than 25%, though opportunities for additional travel may be available if desired.
