Information Security Engineer - two positions

Information Security Engineer - two positions The Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) develops and operates the compute and data infrastructure behind much of Switzerland’s computational science, from climate and weather to materials and large-scale AI. We are now extending the flagship Alps to compute on sensitive data, including medical data and other regulated datasets, through a Secure Computing Environment built for partners whose data must stay inside a tightly controlled perimeter. For that work, trust is what we deliver. Project background We are building an ISO/IEC 27001-certified information security management system, first for the Secure Computing Environment and then across the whole centre. Our Management Board and Director have approved a lasting expansion of CSCS’s security capability, and we are growing the team that runs it, starting with two Information Security Engineers to strengthen our security operations. We have two positions to fill, both initially offered on a two-year contract. The preferred work location is Lugano , although Zürich may also be considered. These positions are funded through ETH Zurich's strategic HPCN-28 initiative, which supports the continued development of key institutional capabilities in line with ETH Zurich's strategic objectives. Following the initial contract period, the contracts may be extended and, subject to organisational needs and funding, could potentially become permanent over time. description As an Information Security Engineer, you will play a key role in protecting CSCS services, infrastructure and research environments. You will work closely with infrastructure, platform and application teams to strengthen CSCS’s security posture and keep its operating environment resilient and secure. Your responsibilities will include:

Information Security Engineer - two positions
Design, implement and continuously improve security controls across the infrastructure.
Monitor, detect, investigate and respond to security incidents using SIEM platforms (e.g. Wazuh or equivalent) and other security tools, including on-call duties where applicable and subject to an agreed operational arrangement.
Extend security monitoring to the Secure Computing Environment: onboard log sources, manage retention, and operate its circuit-breaker and audit trails.
Conduct threat hunting and security investigations using frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.
Lead and coordinate vulnerability management, including identification, prioritisation, remediation tracking and risk assessment.
Secure containerised and Kubernetes-based environments, integrating security throughout the platform lifecycle.
Develop and maintain security monitoring, detection and response capabilities, automating wherever it pays off.
Collaborate with internal teams to prevent, identify and mitigate security risks.
Promote a strong security culture through awareness initiatives, training sessions and engagement across the organisation and our user community.
