Cybersecurity Engineer – Medior

As a Cybersecurity Engineer, you will contribute to the implementation, remediation, and continuous improvement of cybersecurity controls within a large and complex enterprise environment. Depending on your expertise, you may:

• Identify security weaknesses and translate them into concrete remediation actions

• Support or lead vulnerability remediation and patching activities

• Implement or strengthen IAM, MFA, privileged-access, and least-privilege controls

• Deploy application-control, endpoint-security, and system-hardening measures

• Design, integrate, configure, and improve cybersecurity solutions

• Integrate security into development and CI/CD environments

• Contribute to application security, vulnerability assessment, or penetration testing activities

• Strengthen network, infrastructure, cloud, and endpoint security where relevant to your area of expertise

• Troubleshoot complex security and integration issues

• Maintain technical documentation and communicate progress to relevant stakeholders

For Senior profiles, responsibilities may additionally include ownership of technical workstreams, solution design, coordination of remediation activities, and technical guidance to other engineers.

Experience / Education / Certifications

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field is appreciated, although alternative educational paths combined with relevant experience will also be considered

• Several years of professional experience in hands-on technical cybersecurity, with demonstrated experience implementing, operating, integrating, or improving cybersecurity solutions and controls

• For Senior profiles, demonstrated ability to work autonomously, take ownership of complex technical activities, and provide technical guidance when required

Appreciated Personal Attributes

• Structured and analytical mindset

• Strong problem-solving abilities and a pragmatic, solution-oriented approach

• Ability to work autonomously and take ownership of technical activities

• Commitment to continuously developing technical expertise

• Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and international environment

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical teams and communicate fluently in English

Successful candidates would typically have hands-on experience in

• Vulnerability Management, patching, and technical remediation

• Identity & Access Management, Multi-Factor Authentication, and Privileged Access Management

• Application control, endpoint security, and system hardening

• Security system engineering and implementation of cybersecurity solutions

• DevSecOps, Application Security, or secure development environments

• Network, infrastructure, and operating system security

Candidates are not expected to cover all of these areas; strong expertise in one or several relevant technical cybersecurity domains is what matters most.

Nice to have

• Experience with enterprise security technologies such as vulnerability scanners, IAM/PAM solutions, endpoint management, EDR/XDR, or application-control technologies

• Experience with Microsoft enterprise security environments (Active Directory, Entra ID, Intune, Defender, Group Policy, or similar)

• Experience with cloud technologies and cloud security

• Scripting or automation skills such as Python, PowerShell, Bash, Ansible, or similar

• Experience with large-scale cybersecurity remediation or transformation programmes

• Cybersecurity certifications

• Previous experience with EU Institutions, NATO, governmental organisations, defence, or other regulated environments

• Exposure to penetration testing, security assessment, or offensive security activities

• French and/or Italian language skills

What's in it for you?

• Work on a high-visibility programme supporting a major European Institution

• Contribute directly to concrete improvements and remediation activities

• Work with a broad range of modern technologies and complex environments

• Collaborate with experienced cybersecurity engineers, architects, and specialists

• Take ownership of challenging technical activities with tangible security impact

• Continue developing your expertise across varied cybersecurity domains and assignments
