Red Team Security Engineer
Department: IT
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Madrid
Reporting To: Stephen Smith

Description
At Sabio Group, we build and operate AI-powered customer experience platforms for some of the world's most demanding enterprise brands. As we push deeper into agentic AI, multi-cloud architectures and high-volume conversational systems, the attack surface evolves with us — and we need people who can think like adversaries to keep our customers, our data and our reputation safe.
We're hiring a Red Team Security Engineer to join our Information Security & Cyber Security team in South Africa. You'll be the offensive counterpart to our defensive function: stress-testing the solutions we design, build and operate — from cloud-native services to LLM-powered agents — by attacking them the way a real adversary would, and partnering with engineering teams to fix what you find.
This is a hands-on role for someone who is genuinely curious about how systems break, comfortable writing code as well as reading it,



and excited about the new class of vulnerabilities emerging in AI and agentic systems.

Key Responsibilities
Offensive Security & Red Teaming
Plan and execute red team engagements, penetration tests and adversary simulations against our platforms, products and corporate environment.

Develop realistic attack scenarios — initial access, privilege escalation, lateral movement, data exfiltration — mapped to frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.;
Build and maintain custom tooling, exploits and automation where off-the-shelf tools fall short.
Leverage AI pen testing tooling and frameworks as a force amplifier within your role.
AI Powered Security Tooling & Frameworks
Active, hands-on use of AI-powered offensive security tooling as a core part of your workflow — leveraging LLMs and agentic assistants to accelerate rec
