Penetration Testing Coordinator

ABOUT the company

The company's mission is to make effective cybersecurity painless. We're building the all-in-one security and compliance platform: real security first, compliance as the result.

We recently closed a $33M Series A led by Dawn Capital. We're one of the fastest growing security companies in history, and we're only getting started. Our team of opinionated rebels has decades of security and compliance experience, with vision and expertise, reshaping the broken and fragmented compliance and cybersecurity industry.

If you’re ready to challenge the status quo and help shape the future of cybersecurity, we’d love to meet you.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We value passionate self-starters with a growth mindset and a bias for action and personal accountability. If you love solving hard problems, thrive in ambiguity, and want to make a real impact, you’ll fit right in.

We’re especially drawn to

• Rebels with a cause — frustrated with the status quo and eager to disrupt it.

• Opinionated (but not obstinate) builders — decisive yet collaborative, who help us move fast.

• Clear communicators — who own their ideas and follow through.

Our mission is simple: make effective cybersecurity painless. We believe cybersecurity should empower, not burden. This belief unites our team and drives every decision we make.

We’re looking for a tech-savvy relationship builder to lead our customers through every stage of their penetration testing journey with us. In this role, you’ll own pentest engagements from start to finish- running scoping calls, coordinating test execution, and acting as the trusted point of contact for clients. You’ll translate complex security work into clear guidance, answer questions along the way, and ensure every deliverable lands smoothly and on time.

This role is a great fit for a junior pentester who’s eager to grow and gain exposure to the business side of security. You’ll sharpen your technical skills while also building client relationships, learning how engagements are scoped, managed, and delivered, and seeing firsthand how security work drives real business outcomes. If you enjoy collaborating with people, explaining technical concepts in a clear way, and want a well-rounded path to advance your career, this position offers hands-on experience and meaningful growth opportunities.

• Ensure client satisfaction and address concerns promptly and professionally

• Support quality assurance processes to ensure consistent deliverable standards

• Assist pentesters on complex engagements and act as the point contact for escalated technical issues as needed

• Stay current on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and testing methodologies

REQUIREMENTS

• 1-3 years of experience in penetration testing, security assessments, or related cybersecurity role
