Careers

Darkshield is a boutique cyber security agency for the AI era. We help ambitious teams secure modern software, cloud infrastructure, data, and AI-enabled workflows through senior-led testing, advisory, and defence.

Our work spans penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, managed cyber security, incident response, and compliance support for organisations where trust, resilience, and technical depth matter.
