. Participate in internal and external audits and standards‑based assessments
. Perform hands‑on coding when needed to support security objectives and proof‑of‑concept solutions
. Support cybersecurity documentation and review activities, including EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance for cloud platforms
Who You Are:
You build trust through open collaboration and value diverse perspectives when solving complex problems. You translate complex security concepts into clear, actionable guidance that helps teams make confident decisions. You take initiative, continuously seek to improve how security is embedded into development practices, and remain adaptable in a fast‑evolving technology landscape. You are energized by mentoring others and contributing to secure outcomes that have real‑world impact.
For This Role, You Will Need:
. A bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, computer engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
. Demonstrated hands‑on professional coding experience, ideally within cloud‑based environments
. Strong experience with secure software development lifecycle practices and application security design principles

. Working knowledge of cryptography concepts, including PKI and certificate management
. Awareness of current malware trends and emerging cybersecurity threats
. Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to both technical and non‑technical audiences
Preferred Qualifications That Set You Apart:
. Experience in industrial, automotive, or operational technology (OT) environments such as ICS or SCADA
. Cloud security or architecture certifications (for example, Microsoft Azure Security Engineer or Cybersecurity Architect certifications, or equivalent)
. Experience working with cloud‑native technology stacks and modern application architectures
. Exposure to DevSecOps practices and CI/CD automation within active production platforms
. Familiarity with EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) requirements, IEC 62443 standards, CSA guidance, and NIS2
