• Support business development by shaping proposals and presenting solutions to new and existing clients.
• Work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure each project delivers measurable security and business value.

What you bring

You’re someone who thrives where technology meets trust — analytical, collaborative, and inspired by impact.
• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a comparable field.
• Several years’ experience in IAM technologies, Cyber Solution Architecture, or related digital risk areas.
• Hands-on expertise with at least one of the leading IAM platforms (SailPoint, One Identity, Okta, CyberArk).
• Strong understanding of agile development practices and secure-by-design principles.
• Confident communication skills in German and English, with the ability to engage both technical and business audiences.
• Willingness to travel when needed — and the curiosity to explore new ideas wherever you go.

What’s on offer

• Hybrid working and flexible arrangements that support balance and wellbeing.
• Structured career development and world-class training through global learning programmes.
• A culture that celebrates diversity, inclusion, and collaboration.
• Attractive benefits including mobility options, fitness partnerships, and family support programmes.
