- In-depth understanding of Windows internals (e.g., kernel-mode drivers, memory management, system calls, PE file format).
- Experience with kernel-mode debugging and root cause analysis.
- Familiarity with secure coding practices and low-level exploit mitigation techniques (e.g., PatchGuard, CFG, DEP/ASLR).
- Strong understanding of malware behavior and techniques (if cybersecurity-focused).
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary and benefits package.
