Hej Application Security Leader,
Do you want to furnish the future with innovative solutions?
With us, you can feel at home in your work while sharing that feeling with millions of people around the world. We encourage you to stand up for yourself and others, creating an environment where everyone feels welcome. We invite you to open new doors, discover new tech possibilities, embrace mistakes, and grow from them. As our Application Security Leader, you’ll have many opportunities to try things you’ve never done before.
Your new job
We’re looking for an Application Security Leader who wants to solve complex, real-world problems to make life at home simpler. Join us on our journey as we level up our technology to enhance everyday experiences. At IKEA, being a leader means taking ownership of a specific area - in this case, Application Security. This is not a people management role, but rather a responsibility to drive the topic forward and collaborate across teams. Your primary focus will be on supporting our products like our planners and smart home experience but also projects across the IKEA network, and you’ll report to the Information Security & Data Privacy Manager. The impact of your work will touch homes and hearts around the world.
On a typical work week, you will work both with our IKEA Experience team (who take care of our Planning tools like Kitchen, Storage and Office planners) and our Home smart team (who work on our smart home products).
