Mediatech
Mediatech is one of the fastest-growing digital publishing houses, reaching over 25 million people every month across Cybernews, Wellness Pulse, InvestorsObserver, and our wider network.
We deliver trusted, independently researched insights across tech, cybersecurity, health, and finance. Our investigations have exposed major security issues at NASA, WhatsApp, ChatGPT, PayPal, LinkedIn, and the Red Cross, and uncovered the largest-ever password leak (RockYou2024).
We’re a team driven by curiosity, impact, and fast growth — and we’re looking for people who want to build with us.
Information Security Team
The Information Security team is a group of highly skilled professionals dedicated to identifying leaks, breaches, and vulnerabilities across digital systems. They rigorously investigate the security aspects of various tools and products, ensuring robust protection against cyber threats.
You
We’re looking for a senior-level security specialist with a strong technical background and experience leading a team. This role combines hands-on research with day-to-day team management. You’ll guide a group of researchers, support their growth, and help shape how we work while staying actively involved in technical tasks. If you enjoy solving complex security challenges and building strong, effective teams, this might be the right fit.
WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Plan and carry out research on cybersecurity tools, vulnerabilities, and threats
- Validate findings through hands-on testing and reliable sources
- Work closely with editorial, SEO, and product teams to ensure technical accuracy and relevance
- Share insights across departments and contribute to internal security practices
- Keep up with the latest developments in cybersecurity and apply them to our work
- Get involved in scripting, reverse engineering, and other technical investigations
- Be an advocate for cybersecurity excellence—bring proof of your skills, showcase your work, and help raise the bar for security awareness across the company
WHAT WE EXPECT
- Experience managing or mentoring a technical team, ideally in cybersecurity or a similar field
- Strong hands-on experience with cybersecurity tools, vulnerability research, and a solid grasp of information technology fundamentals
- Experience in researching, analyzing, and fact-checking technical content (bonus if in the tech or consumer electronics industry)
- Background in reverse engineering, scripting (Bash, Python, etc.), and system administration
- Familiarity with exploit stacks, threat modeling, and basic secure coding principles
- Excellent research skills and attention to detail; ability to turn complex topics into actionable insights
- Strong communication skills to provide clear, constructive feedback and collaborate effectively across departments
- Self-starter mindset with the ability to manage multiple projects in a dynamic, fast-paced environment
WHAT YOU GET
- Health & Well-being – Private health insurance with mental health coverage (including psychotherapy sessions), in-house physiotherapy, and access to premium wellness apps and fitness resources.
- Time to Recharge – Paid sick days and extra vacation days that grow the longer you’re with us.
- Continuous Growth – Deep focus on individual progress, backed by the 70/20/10 development model and a variety of L&D initiatives that help boost performance all year round. You’ll have a learning budget for courses, conferences, books, and subscriptions — plus regular knowledge-sharing sessions.
- Recognition & Support – Work anniversaries, celebrations for personal milestones such as birthdays, weddings, welcoming new family members, and more.
- Community & Connection – Quarterly events to share knowledge, strengthen alignment, and foster collaboration across teams — plus company workations, wellness challenges, marathons, and other initiatives that bring people together in meaningful ways.
- Workspace & Comfort – Pet-friendly, centrally located offices designed for collaboration and focus, with snacks and spaces to connect or recharge.
- Flexibility – A hybrid work model built on trust and autonomy, with in-person moments that matter.
We care about our team as much as our content. That’s why we focus on real benefits — the kind that help you grow, stay healthy, and feel supported both at work and beyond.
