About the team + role

We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.

Robinhood is looking for an Offensive Security Engineer who is passionate about Red Teaming, Adversarial Simulation, and breaking / fixing systems, to join the Red Team.

The Red Team is a core pillar of the Offensive Security team and situated within the Safety & Productivity Engineering organization. The Red Team works with teams across Robinhood to ensure our products, services, and processes are secure through threat modeling, penetration testing, adversarial simulations, and red teaming.

Here are some examples of things our team does frequently that you’ll be heavily involved with :

• Red Teaming to validate assumptions, facilitate decisions, and improve our ability to detect and respond to incidents.
• Perform threat modeling against critical and new services. Articulate the actual security risk to risk working groups.

• Driving innovative ideas to implementation as the company evolves and grows.
• Conduct vulnerability research to understand latest TTPs, exploits, and forward looking capabilities.
• Leaving things better than you found them by partnering to fix the issues and not just finding broken things.

As an Offensive Security Engineer, you will work across multiple domains, partner with key teams across Robinhood, and help build an even more resilient and secure product for our customers.
