  • Coordinate network connections and device configurations, request firewall rules, implement remote maintenance solutions, and obtain the necessary approvals.
  • Implement IT security and compliance: Implement applicable security and compliance requirements in local infrastructure and network operations, particularly with regard to network segmentation, monitoring, and vulnerability management; contribute to measures under ISO 27001 and NIS2, as well as to the use of tools such as Claroty and Checkmk.
  • Ensure operations and resolve incidents: Monitor local network operations and systematically analyze and resolve incidents in collaboration with global IT teams and service providers; support the maintenance of network diagrams, device inventories, and operational documentation.
  • Coordinate service providers: Align the scope of services and schedules with external IT and network service providers, provide technical oversight for on-site installation, cabling, and maintenance work, and review the agreed services, including their documentation.
  • Support infrastructure projects and the local IT team: Contribute to local infrastructure projects and initiatives, for example as part of construction projects.
  • Support the local IS team in application, server, and endpoint management, as well as in the implementation and use of AI applications.
