What You’ll Need Bachelor’s degree in computer science, information security, engineering, or equivalent practical experience At least 5 years of solid and hands‑on experience in IT security engineering, systems engineering, or cloud security in a corporate or high‑tech environment. Demonstrable track record of delivering relevant security projects with measurable impact (e.g. hardening M365/Azure, rolling out EDR/XDR etc., SIEM onboarding, zero‑trust initiatives). Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CEH, or equivalent are a plus. Strong experience with Microsoft 365 / Entra ID / Intune and AWS security configuration (identity, access, conditional access, logging, compliance). Good knowledge of at least one major cloud platform beyond Azure (e.g. AWS) from a security and operations perspective. Solid understanding of networking (TCP/IP, routing, VPN, firewalls, DNS) and how to apply segmentation and connectivity securely. Experience with SIEM/SOAR tools and log management (e.g. Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, or similar).Experience with endpoint security and management (EDR, MDM, configuration management) across Windows, macOS, and ideally also Linux. Ability to script/automate (PowerShell, Python, or similar) for policy deployment, hardening, and monitoring. Familiarity with information security management and risk handling - ISO/IEC 27001/27002, NIST CSF or SP 800‑53, and related controls. Experience working in or with regulated environments (aviation, defence, safety‑critical systems, or similar) is a strong plus. Understanding of secure software and infrastructure practices (least privilege, zero trust, secure configuration, change management). Who You Are You are proactive by nature, spotting challenges early and driving technically and organizationally sound solutions all the way to completion. You thrive in a small, hands-on IT team and collaborate seamlessly with security, engineering, and leadership across multiple European locations. You stay calm under pressure, manage incidents with confidence, and bring a continuous learning mindset to everything you do. Clear and direct communication in English comes naturally to you, both spoken and written, and any additional European language is a strong advantage.
