Why you should join:
Join a team where you’ll shape cutting‑edge security architecture across embedded systems, cloud platforms, and mobile applications while driving compliance with leading industry standards. You’ll play a key role in strengthening product security—from risk analysis to DevSecOps integration—while collaborating closely with engineering, suppliers, and leadership. This is an opportunity to make a measurable impact in a customer‑focused, innovative environment that values ownership, technical excellence, and cross‑functional partnership.
Your main tasks:
-
Security Leadership & Compliance
- Drive adoption of standards such as ISO/IEC 27001 and IEC 62443 and ensure alignment with the Cyber Resilience Act.
Architecture & Design
- Define secure architectures for embedded systems, mobile apps, and cloud platforms, including identity, secrets, data protection, and zero‑trust patterns.
- Specify embedded security controls (secure boot, roots of trust, key provisioning, secure OTA) and establish cloud security best practices across IAM, encryption, and workload isolation.
- Align projects with relevant industry standards (e.g., ISO/SAE 21434, IEC 62443).
Risk Management
- Lead product TARA activities and maintain risk tracking through the security case and register.
Secure Development & DevSecOps
- Integrate security into CI/CD pipelines (SAST, DAST, SCA, container/IaC scans, SBOM) and define release gates.
- Maintain security workflows and coach engineers on secure coding and threat‑driven design.
Validation & Supplier Engagement
- Support V&V, penetration testing, and remediation, and manage security alignment with suppliers.
Compliance & Documentation
- Own the security compliance dossier, including Cybersecurity Plans, Interface Agreements, Security Cases, and Audit Reports.
Leadership & Culture
- Foster a customer‑focused, safety‑driven culture; translate strategy into KPIs; and strengthen cross‑functional collaboration.
Your ideal background:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Cybersecurity, or related discipline.
- 10+ years in software/hardware engineering with at least 5 years focused on cybersecurity for embedded systems, IoT, or cloud platforms.
- Proven track record in secure architecture design, threat modelling, and risk assessment across multi-domain products.
- Hands-on experience with secure boot, TPM, cryptographic key management, and secure OTA updates, security on the cloud
- Familiarity with DevSecOps pipelines, CI/CD security tooling, and vulnerability management.
- Hands-on experience with compliance frameworks (ISO/SAE 21434, IEC 62443, ISO/IEC 27001)
- Implementation of cybersecurity processes and methods
- Hands on experience with GDPR and NIST.
Essential Skills:
- Proficient in hardware security technologies, including Hardware Security Modules (HSM), secure element integration, and sensor-level protection.
- Skilled in cloud-native security practices, and zero-trust architecture.
- Experienced in advanced testing techniques, including penetration testing, fuzzing, and reverse engineering of embedded firmware.
- Knowledgeable in privacy engineering and compliance with regulatory frameworks like GDPR and global data protection laws.
- Active contributor to the cybersecurity community, through involvement in industry standards, open-source security projects, or published research.
- Strong interpersonal and professional attributes, including adaptability, a continuous learning mindset, and the ability to thrive in global, matrixed organisations.
