ABOUT THE ROLE:
As an IT Security Engineer, you will become part of a team working to develop and strengthen the security of technical systems. You will work closely with developers, system engineers, and other technical functions, contributing to building systems with high security from the start.
In this role, you will work practically with Linux-based environments, focusing on system hardening, scripting, and secure system design. You will analyze security risks, implement improvements, and contribute to making systems robust and resilient. This role suits you if you enjoy understanding how systems work, solving technical problems, and driving the work forward independently.
You will become part of a team where collaboration and knowledge sharing are a natural part of everyday life. For the right person, there are good opportunities for further development while you are expected to take responsibility and work independently within your area.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Work with hardening of Linux-based systems
- Write scripts for automation and configuration

- Have an understanding of how software is built and functions, preferably through experience in system or software development
- Have experience with technical documentation related to system design and requirements
- Speak and write fluently in Swedish and English, as both languages are used in the role
It is an advantage if you have experience with:
- Jenkins or similar tools
- Virtualization
- Security standards such as CIS, NIST, or similar frameworks
- Penetration testing or vulnerability scanning
- Defense or security industry
To thrive in this role, we believe you are technically curious and enjoy solving problems. You take initiative and are comfortable working independently, while also appreciating collaboration with others to find the best solutions. You thrive in a changing environment where you take responsibility and are motivated by developing both systems and working methods.
