Reverse Engineer (iOS or Android)

Job description Job Description Everforth ECS Federal is seeking a Reverse Engineer (iOS or Android) to work in our Northern,•VA office. ECS's National Security & Civilian Business unit is seeking a highly motivated Reverse Engineer (iOS or Android) to support a mission-focused portfolio of cyber research and development efforts and the IT infrastructure that enables them. The purpose of this initiative is to enhance and sustain capabilities in IT Support, IT Security, IT Services, and Administrative Compliance that directly underpin complex technical investigations across law enforcement and intelligence community agencies, where rapid advances in global communications, data networks, cellular systems, and the Internet technologies present constant operational challenges. Operating in a highly collaborative, Agile environment, this program leverages rapid research and development methods to create solutions to real-world operational problems, with emphasis on device exploitation, application analysis, and advanced reverse engineering of software, firmware, and embedded systems. As a Reverse Engineer (iOS or Android), you will apply deep reverse engineering skills to analyze binaries, firmware, and complex systems in support of cutting-edge cyber capabilities, vulnerability discovery, and exploitation and mitigation research. You will work closely with security analysts, developers, and mission stakeholders to uncover vulnerabilities, extract proprietary algorithms, understand low-level behaviors, and translate technical findings into actionable operational capabilities and clear, defensible documentation. Drawing on Agile practices, you will contribute to planning, execution, and continuous improvement of team workflows—helping drive efficiency, collaboration, and innovation while rapidly iterating on prototypes and research outcomes.

Responsibilities Reverse Engineering:

Assist with conducting reverse engineering efforts to analyze software binaries, firmware, and systems, uncovering vulnerabilities, extracting proprietary algorithms, and understanding complex functionalities.

Vulnerability Identification:

Assist in the discovery and analysis of security vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and design flaws in software applications and systems through comprehensive reverse engineering techniques.

Collaborative Problem-Solving:

Collaborate closely with security analysts, developers, and stakeholders to address complex technical challenges, propose solutions, and drive implementation efforts.

Documentation and Reporting:

Document reverse engineering findings, analysis methodologies, and project progress. Prepare technical reports and presentations to communicate results, recommendations, and project status effectively.

Continuous Improvement:

Continuously improve reverse engineering processes and practices within the team. Identify opportunities for optimization, implement best practices, and drive innovation in reverse engineering techniques.
