  • Experience working within approved test scope and communicating useful fixes to developers.
  • Ability to travel to client sites as needed.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Burp Suite, commercial application scanners, CI/CD pipeline security, or container security.

Why Join Minerva

  • Work on meaningful missions tied to critical infrastructure resilience and cybersecurity.
  • Join a team with deep hands-on cyber and national security experience.

  • Contribute to practical, outcomes-driven work rather than checkbox consulting.
