Requirements:
Extensive experience in reverse engineering, binary analysis, or file system internals is required.
Strong proficiency in C++ with a focus on low-level systems programming is necessary.
Familiarity with backup software formats, storage metadata, or raw data reconstruction is important.
Experience with debugging, disassembly, and unpacking techniques is essential.
A background in malware analysis, incident response, or forensics is considered a bonus.
Candidates must be available for collaboration during some U.S. business hours.
Confidentiality and data security are critical; background screening may be required.
Benefits:
This is a remote position open to candidates worldwide, providing flexibility in work location.
The role offers the opportunity to work on challenging projects in data recovery.
