Accenture Security is seeking driven professionals with a strong commitment to IT security to join our team as a Penetration Tester. In this pivotal role, you will spearhead comprehensive security assessments to identify and address vulnerabilities across diverse technologies, from applications and networks to leading cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure.
 

At Accenture, you will be part of a collaborative, innovative environment dedicated to advancing security practices and empowering organizations to stay ahead of emerging threats.
 

If you are eager to advance your career with a global leader in cybersecurity and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the industry, this position offers the unique opportunity to collaborate closely with our dedicated penetration testing team in Stockholm, as well as engage with colleagues and experts across our international network – this might be a perfect opportunity for you.

We’re looking for someone who lives and breathes IT security, with a particular passion for penetration testing. If you enjoy breaking things to make them better, this might be your next gig.

• 3+ years of hands-on experience running and owning penetration tests from start to finish.
• Comprehensive expertise in application and web application security testing, including familiarity with the OWASP Top 10. Proficient in infrastructure domains such as Windows Active Directory, Linux systems, and network security.
• Demonstrated experience with leading cloud platforms including AWS, GCP, and Azure.
• Fluent in both Swedish and English, with strong written and verbal communication skills in each language.

Bonus points if you bring:

• Solid experience in software development, AWS-native architectures, IaaS, or containerized microservices.
• Familiarity with the latest buzzwords that actually matter — because our clients use them too.
• Certifications like OSCP or other relevant security creds.

As a Penetration Tester with us, you're not just technically sharp — you also know how to communicate and share your knowledge with both clients and colleagues. You're a natural source of inspiration, constantly exploring new technologies and pushing your passion for security forward.

We don’t expect perfection—but we do expect a growth mindset. Everyone on our team is committed to evolving, so we can stay one step ahead of attackers and keep our clients secure. If you're like us, you see the value and energy in working together to solve complex challenges.
