Darum lohnt es sich

You will be responsible end-to-end for turning the platform into a secure, production-ready system: designing security architecture, running threat modeling for every integration, translating findings into shipped mitigations, hardening embedded Linux, firmware, and cloud components, and establishing secure engineering practices across the technical team.

Role description You will lead product security and security architecture for an early-stage deep-tech startup building sensor-fusion safety systems for industrial automation and robotics.

You will define security measures for how the product is built, deployed, and operated, so the first product release can pass customer and regulatory security reviews under CRA, IEC 62443-4-1/4-2, and ISO/IEC 27001.

You should be ready for ambiguity, tight schedules, shifting priorities, rapid iteration, working directly alongside the CTO, and assuming wider responsibility for decisions that shape the final product-market fit.
