SecurityBridge is a fast-growing global software leader transforming how enterprises secure their SAP environments. Our mission is to deliver cutting-edge, high-impact SAP security solutions that enable some of the world’s largest organizations to stay ahead of ever-evolving cyber threats.

We are looking for a motivated Junior SAP Security Researcher to join our SAP Security Research Lab, the offensive and defensive core of our platform. In this role, you will work alongside experienced researchers to identify vulnerabilities in SAP technologies, build proof-of-concepts, and translate findings into detection and protection capabilities.

You will play an active role in understanding how real-world SAP systems can be attacked, and how those risks can be prevented at scale.

Key Responsibilities

• Support vulnerability research across SAP technologies, including NetWeaver (ABAP/Java), S/4HANA, HANA, and SAP network components.
• Assist in developing proof-of-concepts to demonstrate exploitability and real-world impact.
• Contribute to detection and protection content, such as vulnerability checks, signatures, and security rules.
• Analyze SAP systems and configurations to understand potential attack vectors and weaknesses.
• Collaborate with senior researchers and development teams to translate research into scalable product features.
• Stay up to date with SAP security advisories, vulnerabilities, and emerging threats.
• Document findings clearly and contribute to internal knowledge sharing and external publications.

Required Qualifications

• 1–3 years of experience in security research, penetration testing, or SAP technical roles (e.g., SAP Basis, ABAP development, or security administration).
• Strong foundation in either SAP technologies or offensive security concepts.
• Basic understanding of SAP system architecture, including system landscapes, connectivity, and user management.
• Familiarity with common security concepts such as vulnerabilities, attack vectors, and system hardening.
• Hands-on mindset with demonstrated curiosity (e.g., CTFs, home labs, GitHub projects, or research write-ups).
• Basic scripting skills (e.g., Python) or willingness to learn.
• Good communication skills in English, both written and spoken.
• Ability to work independently while collaborating in a remote team environment.

Nice to Have

• Exposure to SAP Basis, ABAP, or SAP security concepts.
• Familiarity with SAP infrastructure components such as RFC, ICM, Gateway, or SAProuter.
• Experience with security tools (e.g., Burp Suite, Nmap, Metasploit).
• Understanding of network protocols (e.g., TCP/IP, HTTP, TLS).
• Participation in CTFs, bug bounty programs, or security research projects.

Important Information

• This position is remote-first, with a preference for candidates based in the EU.
• Visa sponsorship and relocation support are not available.
• Candidates must hold valid authorization to work in their country of residence.

Our Offer

• A unique opportunity to start your career in SAP security research and work on real-world vulnerabilities.
• Hands-on mentorship from experienced SAP security researchers.
• Access to a dedicated SAP lab environment across multiple systems and technologies.
• Opportunities to contribute to research publications, open-source projects, and industry conferences.
• A collaborative, international team with a strong focus on learning and growth.
