As a pentester, your role will be to perform (white box) penetration testing on any of our global business applications.
 
You are part of the Randstad Global Offensive Security Team in the global CISO office. Together with 8 other “offensive security specialists” the team offers various security services to all Randstad countries and their IT landscape. They vary between “standard” black box pentests, white box pentests and Red Team activities.

You will be responsible for the following : 

• lead “white box” pentesting projects on our business websites, mobile applications and infrastructure
• Create actionable assessments in different phases of development of our Operational Companies’ applications 
• Analyze vulnerabilities and penetration test findings, propose remediation strategies and security requirements, help to mitigate security vulnerabilities at each layer.
• On a day-to-day basis, contribute to the security community, ensure support and follow-up with the application development and infrastructure teams on resolving the vulnerabilities found. 
• Research on the latest security best practices and technologies, stay aware of any new threats and vulnerabilities and share the information and impact within the team and the Group.
• Mentor and train junior team members

Your background / profile

• You have a “hacker mindset”
• At least 3-4 years of relevant work experience within security testing
• Strong Understanding of OWASP, penetration testing methodologies, security standards and best practices
• Ambition to lead pentest projects
• Ability to work with an international environment and to team up with other security and development teams
• Ability to read and understand code (Java, Python, React/Angular)
• Good communication skills in English
• nice-to-have: Certificates related to competence offensive security - (e.g. OSWE, OSCP, CEH, GIAC GPEN , GIAC GXPN , EC-Council LPT)
• nice-to-have: Experience in developing applications
• nice-to-have: Knowledge of cloud security best practices for AWS and GCP

What do you get in return?

Randstad’s performance standards are high, but as a team, we’ll make sure you reach and even exceed them through a wide range of learning and development opportunities, but above all also by making sure you are doing well. We prioritise our people, not just employees - and joining our team means getting to work with great people. Each of them is crucial to maintaining our open-minded, entrepreneurial, and vibrant company culture. It’s the culture you’ll find in any of our global Randstad offices. 

We offer you:

• A very diverse IT landscape to work with the ability for you to develop all different offensive security skill sets 
• A Monthly Salary between €3.000,- and  €5.024,- 
• Possibility and flexibility to work from home
• Access to a wide range of training and education programs
• A generous monthly benefit budget that allows you to choose between free time or money, or to use your budget for items such as a bicycle, tablet, gym membership, or education.
• 25 vacation days (with the option to purchase an extra 26) and 8.5% vacation allowance. 
• A generous share purchase plan that doubles your purchased shares
