About The Position

The Threat Management Senior Red Team Operator is a cybersecurity professional responsible for leading and executing end-to-end adversary emulation activities across the enterprise. This role serves as a subject matter expert in simulating realistic attack scenarios, including social engineering, credential access, lateral movement, persistence, and ransomware-based attack paths, to assess and validate the organization’s ability to detect, respond to, and withstand real-world threats. The Red Team Operator is not a traditional penetration tester but instead focuses on full attack chain execution aligned to threat-informed scenarios, business risk, and known control gaps. This role requires a strategic and technical operator capable of planning, coordinating, and executing complex engagements while collaborating closely with Incident Response, Threat Intelligence, Detection Engineering, and Application Security teams to drive measurable improvements in enterprise security posture.
