Careers

Product security that takes craftsmanship.

Redlings assesses connected products: devices, firmware, protocols, cryptography. Whoever joins us does the technical work themselves, from the first scope call to the final finding review. Senior-led, manufacturer-independent, no body leasing.

Why Redlings

The work you apply for is the work you do

Whoever runs an assessment here owns it: your analyses, your findings, your recommendations. There is no layer that sells while another works, and no product line whose interests we would have to represent.

Real products, real findings

Our projects are products in the field: industrial sensors, gateways, medical and lab devices, firmware that runs for years. Every finding has to be reproducible and every recommendation implementable by an engineering team, that is what the work is measured against.

A senior in every review

Technical results are consistently peer-reviewed here, quality is part of the process, not a hope. New colleagues work on projects from day one and grow through review, not on the sidelines.
