They should understand advanced Red Team concepts such as performing covert operations against complex networks while remaining entirely undetected, advanced application manipulation, and basic programming concepts. FireEye/Mandiant Red Team managers are expected to be as technical as the consultants they manage and will assist on the most difficult engagements.
