LevelBlue (formerly Alert Logic), a pure-play managed security services provider, is seeking a Principal Security Consultant to lead red-team engagements within the globally recognized SpiderLabs team. This is a senior technical leadership role combining hands-on offensive security work with mentorship and strategic client engagement across the EMEA region. You will lead end-to-end red-team engagements for enterprise clients, including scoping, technical execution, debrief, and remediation tracking.

You will present technical findings and executive summaries to client stakeholders, develop remediation roadmaps, and mentor junior red teamers.

The ideal candidate balances deep technical expertise with strong consulting and communication skills.
