- Collaborate with the CISO and GRC team to propose, draft, and implement security policies aligned with frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST CSF, or NIS2, and to ensure AI tools align with applicable regulatory requirements (EU AI Act, GDPR) and internal security policies.
- Support internal audits, risk assessments, and compliance activities related to applicable regulations, ensuring identified risks are documented and remediated.
- Evaluate AI tools adopted or developed by the company, proposing security measures and controls to mitigate risks related to data exposure, model misuse, and unauthorized access.
- Monitor threat intelligence feeds and vulnerability scan results, translating findings into actionable recommendations for IT and security teams.
- Document security configurations applied across the company’s security systems, ensuring all settings, changes, and hardening measures are accurately recorded and kept up to date.
- Participate in access control reviews and enforce least-privilege principles, managing security exceptions with proper documentation and periodic review.
- Collaborate with IT, DevOps, and development teams to integrate security best practices into day-to-day operations, maintaining a shift-left security mindset.

- Familiarity with common attack vectors, including phishing, malware, ransomware, and social engineering.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with an ability to work methodically under pressure.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English; ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
- High level of integrity, discretion, and professionalism when handling sensitive information.
