Android Security Researcher

About iVerify

We are Experts in Mobile Threat Hunting. The first mobile threat hunting company to protect mobile devices like any other vulnerable corporate endpoint.

The mobile security market has a problem. Simply put, current solutions fail to meet the sophistication of modern threats or the growing privacy desires of mobile device users. We believe that it is time for something new. Not only because we care deeply about the safety of frontline users like journalists and activists - many of whom are doing important and often dangerous work - but because enterprises and consumers deserve real protection from advanced mobile threats without sacrificing privacy.

We are building the first mobile threat hunting company to harmonize security and privacy in the face of a new class of mobile threats. Supported by some of the most well-respected VC firms, we aim to become the go-to mobile security solution for individuals who want to know they can trust their devices with their most sensitive information – without sacrificing privacy.

  • Evaluate failed exploits to determine appropriate response strategies and refine detection techniques.

  • Review and interpret malware analysis reports to understand attack mechanisms and improve detection and prevention strategies.

Requirements

  • Proficiency with tools such as Ghidra, IDA Pro, Frida, and JEB for reverse engineering tasks.

  • Strong background in Android forensics, including experience with commercial spyware attacks and analytical methods.

  • Comprehensive understanding of the Android operating system, including familiarity with log files and their locations.

  • Experience with Android sandboxing techniques.

  • Skills in malware analysis specifically for Android OS, including the ability to build and maintain malware analysis pipelines.
