Mendrisio, Ticino
Work Type: Full Time
We are KNOWLEDGE LAB. Since 2016, we’ve been creating bespoke digital solutions for the banking world, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with technology. We have ambitious plans, and this is your chance not just to be part of our journey but to actively shape our future projects with your expertise.

As a Security Engineer, you’ll join a dynamic team of security experts developing and operating innovative security solutions for clients across various industries. You’ll work with cutting-edge tools like Airlock and Nessus, guiding our clients in designing and implementing scalable security strategies.

You’ll take ownership of our clients’ security platforms, continuously improving them to maintain top-tier security standards. If you're looking for an environment where you can work autonomously, experiment with new technologies, and actively shape the IT security landscape, this role is for you.

What you will achieve:
  • You’ll manage and optimize the security platforms for our clients, ensuring critical systems are secure and performing at their best 24/7
  • Implement industry-leading security best practices in areas like virtualization, containerization, and web applications, taking responsibility for delivering tailored solutions to our clients
  • You’ll play a key role in maintaining and improving both on-premise and cloud environments, ensuring they meet the highest security standards
  • Occasionally lead the implementation of WAF/IAM solutions for new clients, customizing them to fit specific needs
  • Build strong relationships with clients, acting as their trusted security advisor and helping them evolve their security strategies
  • Proactively identify new security technologies and evaluate how they can drive success for our team
  • You’ll participate in on-call rotations, ensuring the stability and security of client systems around the clock
What you bring:
  • A strong passion for solving complex security challenges and confidence in providing direct, expert guidance to clients
  • Extensive experience in web security and cloud technologies, along with a drive to continuously expand your knowledge in these fields
  • Proven expertise with container infrastructures and orchestration tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift
  • Proficiency in Git and a deep understanding of CI/CD tools that enable you to streamline development and deployment processes
  • Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), allowing you to simplify and scale deployments effectively
  • Solid knowledge in Web Application Firewalls (WAF) and/or Identity Access Management (IAM), ensuring the security of web applications
  • Fluency in English, allowing you to communicate effectively in a dynamic, multilingual environment, German would be a big plus.

In a Nutshell: You show initiative and a strong sense of responsibility, tackle tasks, and get support where you need it. Furthermore, you'll work with a great team and benefit from generous perks such as:
  • 30 days of vacation per year as standard for all our staff
  • Excellent opportunities for growth and personal development
  • Part-time models and hybrid work culture
  • State-of-the-art hardware and infrastructure
  • Well situated office in Mendrisio
  • Free half-fare public transport pass
