  • Provide technical guidance and training to other team members on cryptographic systems and key management processes.
  • Participate in audits and compliance assessments related to cryptographic systems and key management processes.

  • Proven experience in designing, implementing, operating, and managing on-premise and/or cloud-based IT systems.
  • Familiarity with HSM technologies and their integration.
  • Strong understanding of cryptographic concepts, standards, and tools.
  • Knowledge of security best practices and compliance standards.
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Independent, structured, and systematic way of working.
  • Very good written and spoken English; knowledge of German is an advantage.
  • Willingness to undertake occasional business trips.
  • Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or CISA are a plus.
