Packetlabs was built by an ethical hacker after seeing vulnerability assessments presented as penetration tests. Our slogan "Identify Risks Before They Become Headlines" drives at the importance of not providing our clients with a false sense of security.
The Project Management Office at Packetlabs supports a passionate team of highly trained, proactive, ethical hackers. We provide expert-level penetration testing services that are thorough and tailored to help foster a safe digital space where everyone has the right to privacy and security. Packetlabs consultants find weaknesses others overlook and continuously learn new ways to evade controls.
But technical rigor is only half of what makes an engagement successful. We believe client success is defined not just by what we deliver, but by how our clients feel throughout the process: informed, respected, and genuinely taken care of. Our Project Managers are the human face of that promise, the ones who turn a high-stakes, high-stress security engagement into an experience clients trust, recommend, and return for.
We hold ourselves to a very high standard.
To do so, we only hire individuals with the same drive and passion.
We are seeking a Project Manager who enjoys working in a fast-paced/dynamic environment and loves to challenge themselves continually. This role entails the management of client engagements, including penetration testing, objective-based penetration testing and web & mobile application security testing. Applicants need above-average attention to detail and be self-motivated, professional, and organized.
