The Genesys Global Security, Privacy & Compliance Centre of Excellence (COE SPC) provides expert security advisory services to Sales, Pre-sales, Customers, and Partners. The team is the single point of contact for all security, privacy, and compliance-related field engagements within the Genesys Cloud Business Unit.
Role Summary:
We are seeking a Security expert to act as the Security Subject Matter Expert (SME) for Genesys Cloud customer assessments, audits and evidence-related engagements within the COE SPC team for global engagements.
This is a hands-on technical security role, not a compliance or GRC position. We are looking for a security engineer who can deeply understand systems, analyse technical evidence, and confidently defend it with highly technical security and audit stakeholders.
You will apply your expertise in security controls to Genesys Cloud services during customer audits, clearly articulating and defending our security, privacy, and compliance posture. This includes explaining controls and presenting evidence in complex discussions with security and compliance teams.
You will build strong knowledge of Genesys Cloud AI capabilities and their security and compliance considerations, respond to security inquiries, and act as the internal escalation point for these discussions.
The role requires deep technical credibility, strong evidence-handling discipline, and the ability to translate complex controls into clear, defensible audit narratives. You should be comfortable in high-pressure customer environments, managing competing priorities while maintaining accuracy and professionalism. Fluency in both English and German is required.
