  • Strong knowledge of Windows Kernel development and/or low-level research.
  • Deep understanding of vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques targeting Windows (both usermode and kernelmode).
  • Excellent understanding of Windows Internals, including components like processes and threads, memory management, IPC, security models, system services, and tracing mechanisms.
  • Proven ability to conduct both offensive and defensive security research.
  • At least 3 years of experience in reverse engineering (x86/x64, static and dynamic).
  • Solid understanding of C, C++, and assembly, especially for analyzing low-level code and understanding system behavior.
  • Hands-on experience with analysis tools such as IDA, Ghidra, WinDBG, SysInternals, etc.
  • Good understanding of EDR, EPP, and AV internals.
