Your role in the team

  • Initial focus on SAP Security: You’ll start with a clear focus on our SAP landscape. You’ll develop and integrate automated security measures specifically for the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP).
  • End-to-End Security: You shape security holistically beyond SAP—from processes and architecture to technical implementation directly within the development teams.
  • Design & Coding: You design and implement automated controls (Policy-as-Code), monitoring measures, and auto-remediations (fixes) across a broad, heterogeneous technology landscape.
  • Global Platform & Architecture: You drive the further development of security modules in our global security platform. Where necessary, you also design and develop tailored decentralized solutions.
  • Staged Rollouts & Governance: You oversee the rollout of policy sets to production. Through thorough testing, technical validation, and close coordination with release, security, and governance processes, you ensure deployments are controlled and audit-ready.
  • Interface management: As a communication link, you work closely with all ISMS Domain Owners and technical Service Owners to establish new controls across the group.
  • Continuous improvement: You challenge the status quo, optimize processes, and actively put your technology ideas into practice.

Our expectations of you

Education

  • Your background: A completed degree in (business) informatics, cybersecurity, or a comparable qualification in IT. Above all, what matters to us is your willingness to learn, curiosity, and the proverbial ability to think outside the box.

Qualifications

  • Tech stack: Cloud, container, and CI/CD environments are your domain. You know exactly how to effectively integrate security requirements into automated development and operations processes.
  • A can-do attitude: You drive complex topics with significant impact across the group forward in a structured way. You keep the big picture in mind without losing sight of the technical details.
  • Communication & Soft Skills: Analytical thinking, team spirit, and assertiveness are among your core competencies. You know how to engage a wide range of stakeholders at all levels of the hierarchy through effective communication.
  • Languages: You communicate confidently and persuasively in German (at least C1 level) and English.

Experience

  • Experience: You bring several years of in-depth experience in IT security, particularly in modern software development (DevSecOps) and complex platform architectures.
  • Coding & SAP expertise: You code confidently and have in-depth knowledge, ideally in Golang and/or Kotlin. For your initial focus area, you ideally already have experience with SAP technologies, particularly SAP BTP.
