What You'll Actually Be Doing
Design and run end-to-end red team operations that simulate real threat actors, from initial access to objective completion. Use threat intelligence to emulate specific Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups and adapt your tactics as defenders respond.
Find, exploit, and chain weaknesses across applications, identity, cloud, and enterprise environments. Build custom tooling, payloads, and techniques that test security controls and detections.
Work with the Red Team Director, Detection and Response, Detection Engineering, and Blue Teams on campaign design and purple team exercises. Help engineering teams understand root causes and put durable fixes in place.
Act as the technical escalation point for complex attack paths and disputed findings, and mentor other engineers. Explain attack chains and business risk clearly to executive leadership, following all rules of engagement, scoping limits, and Operational Security (OPSEC) practices.
You're Our Person If...

Posting Statement
Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination. Know your rights: workplace discrimination is illegal. Any employee or potential employee will be assessed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications – without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, transgender status, age, disability, veteran or marital status, political viewpoint, or other classifications protected by law. This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.
