Architecture, Analysis & Design:

  • Analyze system and product architectures to identify cyber security requirements and threat vectors.
  • Define and design cyber security features for embedded systems and connected devices.
  • Produce security architecture documentation, threat models (e.g., STRIDE/TARA), and security concept descriptions.

Implementation Support:

  • Work closely with embedded software developers to implement security controls such as secure boot, secure firmware update
  • Hardware root of trust usage
  • Cryptographic services and key management
  • Authentication and secure communication features
  • Support MCU/SoC platform hardening and integration of vendor-specific security module
  • Implement software on Embedded (Yocto) Linux environment

Platform Expertise:

  • Apply strong hands-on understanding of modern MCU architectures (e.g., NXP, STM32, TI, Renesas) and their cyber security capabilities (TrustZone, crypto accelerators, secure elements, HSMs).

Process & Method Development:

  • Participate in developing and integrating SPDL practices into our development processes.
  • Share best practices and coach teams in secure development principles.

Collaboration & Customer Interaction

  • Work directly with customers in technical discussions, design reviews, and security assessments.
  • Support sales and bid managers by providing cyber security expertise for proposals.

Your Skills And Experience

  • Experience as Cyber Security Architect, Cyber Security Lead, or thorough understanding and experience in secure software development in embedded systems
  • Strong understanding of MCU-level cyber security features and embedded system architectures.
  • Experience with secure development practices, threat modelling, and risk assessment.
  • Knowledge of modern cryptography and secure communication protocols.
  • Familiarity with regulatory environments such as CRA, RED, product safety, and defense/security standards.
  • Background in embedded SW development (C/C++, embedded Linux and RTOS environments)
  • Excellent communication skills in Finnish and English, both written and spoken.
  • Ability to work with multidisciplinary teams and communicate complex security topics clearly.
  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of security architectures and processes
  • Readiness for basic security clearance approval from Finnish authorities
  • Previous work experience in consultancy is an advantage.

What We Offer

  • A key role in developing our cyber security offering and internal capabilities.
  • Opportunity to influence customer solutions across multiple domains (industrial, medical, defense, energy, etc.).
  • Access to a wide network of experts and modern tools for secure product development.
  • A position where both technical depth and process-level perspective matter.
