A fool trusts the weapon; a wise one trusts the warrior behind it.
Hacking is the search for what nobody has found yet. It takes creativity and proven technical depth, and it gets better when the people doing it are respected and well equipped. Every finding in a report is the work of a real person, hand-picked, who treats security as a craft that demands curiosity and judgment.
What we look for in a tester
Why hackers stay
Interesting scopes
The full surface, including AI/LLM work, across varied targets and technical environments.
Real deal flow, no hustle
We bring the work, the scoping, the contracts. You hack. You don't spend your week selling.
You set when you're available. We schedule within it.
No fixed hours, async on the platform. Nothing lands in a window you didn't open.
Open your availability windows on a calendar. Engagements are scheduled within them, load-balanced across the crew.

One workspace for the whole engagement.
Findings carry CVSS-derived severity and a clean draft → under-review → completed lifecycle. It is a working quality gate for the tester bench.
Built to let talent excel.
No payment headaches.
You see what's earned, what's pending, what's paid.
R&D budget
Real backing for the tooling and research that keeps you ahead. If a licence, a rig, or a week of digging makes you sharper, we fund it.
A real crew behind you
A private workspace where a distributed crew across EMEA and the US trades techniques and reviews each other's work. When you're stuck, someone good is a message away.
Recognition
Standout work gets seen inside the crew, credited by name, and rewarded. We back friendly competition and the ambitious.
We don't promise guaranteed earnings or pick-any-job autonomy. We promise good work, fairly shared, and tooling that respects your time.
How we maintain the tester bench
Our testers hold internationally recognized credentials. Each is validated and kept current. No self-attested résumés.
Three steps. We set expectations honestly
Apply
Tell us what you hack, show work you're proud of (links / CTF handle / sample report), share your certs. No forms for the sake of forms.
Vetting
A practical technical evaluation of your skill and method. This is how the bar stays high.
Onboard
Set up on Outer Core, learn how we run engagements, open your first availability window and take your first scope.
Think you belong here? Show us
Send us your background and the work you're proud of. If it's a fit, we'll take you through vetting and onboarding.
