Description

We're seeking a Senior CyberSecurity Engineer to lead the strategic direction and implementation of security controls across our organisation's infrastructure. You'll champion the translation of security policies into testable, automated code, ensuring non-bypassable compliance.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and execute the roadmap for industrializing and automating security governance, compliance verification, and control enforcement across the organisation.
  • Drive the adoption of DevSecOps principles by embedding security controls directly into the CI/CD pipeline and contributing secure, reusable modules for engineering teams.
  • Lead complex projects, mentor junior staff, and significantly influence security governance decisions.

Requirements:

  • 7+ years of progressive, hands-on experience in engineering, with a strong emphasis on security architecture, leading complex security initiatives, and developing advanced security solutions.
  • Extensive and deep hands-on experience architecting, implementing, and securing infrastructure and services within major cloud service providers (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) at scale.
  • Strong proficiency in at least one scripting language (e.g., Python, Go, Bash, Ruby) with the ability to develop automation for security operations, configuration management, and compliance.
  • Expert-level understanding and practical application of cloud security concepts, principles, architectures, and technologies.

Nice to Have:

  • Relevant industry certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Security - Specialty, Google Professional Cloud Security Engineer).
  • Proven experience implementing, auditing, and maintaining controls for major compliance frameworks (NIST CSF, ISO 27001).
  • Exceptional communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence and align senior leadership, diverse engineering teams, and non-technical stakeholders.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary: €84,000 EUR - €126,000 EUR per year.
  • Comprehensive benefits package.
  • Flexible work arrangements: spend at least half (50%) of your time each quarter in the office or in the field.

How to Apply: If you're interested in this opportunity, please submit your application through Workday Careers.
