Careers
Do real security work.
Become a security leader.
Adversis is where practitioners go to do work that matters—and build the experience to lead security programs in 5-10 years.
We hire people who can be leaders—and we give them the client exposure, the hard problems, and the ownership to get there.

The work you do has real impact on the success of others
We help SaaS companies close enterprise deals by building security programs that hold up to scrutiny. That means pen tests, red team engagements, compliance, vCISO work—whatever the client actually needs.
You'll work directly with founders and CTOs. You'll own engagements end-to-end. You'll get on calls with enterprise security teams and answer hard questions. When you find a vulnerability, it gets fixed. When you build a program, it gets used.
Deliverables that influence. No checkbox compliance. Real problems, real impact.

What We Look For
About You
Own it. You take responsibility for your work and its outcomes. You own client relationships from start to finish. When something breaks, you fix it.
Question it. You reason from first principles. You challenge assumptions—including ours. If industry best practice is wrong, you say so.
Ship it. You communicate clearly, respond promptly, and deliver. You move with urgency because client problems don't wait.

What We expect
Our Standards
Empathy is required. Clients come to us worried or overwhelmed. We make them feel capable, not stupid. They leave every interaction feeling better than before.
Evidence over opinion. We care about ground truth. That means accurate risk models, first-principles thinking, and going against the grain when the data says to.
Communication isn't optional. We respond to every client request within 24 hours. We never miss a client meeting. We say the difficult thing clearly.
Hard work, no shortcuts. Excellence comes from doing the hard thing daily. Attention to detail. Personal responsibility. Determination.
