You will primarily support software teams with issues related to Product Security, Secure Development Lifecycle, and the secure development of products delivered both on-premise and as cloud-based solutions. The role involves close collaboration with developers, architects, and other specialists, where you act as a support, sounding board, and advisor on security matters.

This is a role where you have the opportunity to make an impact. Working methods, processes, and technical guidelines continue to evolve, meaning your ideas and expertise will play a vital role in the company's ongoing Product Security work.

• Analyze digital products based on current and upcoming cybersecurity requirements, focusing on EU regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and Radio Equipment Directive (RED).
• Guide the organization in working with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and translating regulatory requirements into practical workflows.
• Work with Product Security throughout the entire development lifecycle and contribute to a structured Secure Development Lifecycle.
• Identify security and compliance gaps, create concrete action plans, and support teams in prioritizing and implementing the right measures.
• Collaborate with development teams and other specialists regarding security requirements for on-premise, cloud, and hybrid solutions.
• Contribute to the development of processes, methods, and tools within Product Security and cybersecurity.

• Have a completed university degree in Data Science or similar, including courses in cybersecurity.
• Have at least 1–2 years of work experience in digital product security within both hardware and software.
• Have experience in product development and a good understanding of how security requirements are integrated throughout the development process.
• Have good knowledge of and experience working with EU directives within product legislation and regulations, such as IEC 62443-4-1 and IEC 62443-4-2.
• Speak and write fluently in Swedish and English, as both languages are used in daily internal and external communication.

• Have worked with or have good knowledge of RED and CRA.
• Have experience with cloud-based solutions, Kubernetes, and/or software development.
