Job DescriptionHardware Cyber Security Researcher
Location: Reading hybrid (UK)
Please note: this role requires someone to work physically in our Hardware Lab in Reading (Thames Valley Park) for 50% of the time
Oracle's Global Product Security (GPS) is looking for a highly skilled security professional to join the Ethical Hacking Team (EHT).
The EHT operates on the whole Oracle portfolio of products to improve security across all engineering groups within the company. As an EHT member, you will be involved in all aspects of product security assessment, from identification to fix. We value individual contribution, and you will be given the freedom to learn and grow. We are passionate about sharing knowledge and we deeply believe that the stronger you grow, the stronger the team becomes.
Responsibilities:
You will be involved in mostly hardware security assessments, using your knowledge to identify and report security issues, as well as guidance to fix them. You will dive deep into hardware implementations, reverse engineer firmware, file formats and protocols in order to reveal subtle security vulnerabilities and implement proof-of-concept exploit attack chains, simulating the steps of real-life attackers.
A successful candidate must have genuine excitement for and interest in security, as well as the desire to share knowledge and help others learn from the high technical and ethical standards you set. Your work will benefit thousands of Oracle engineers worldwide and shape the future of product security within one of the largest software companies in the world.
