Security Engineer – Third-Party Software Security - Specialist IT Security Management (m/f/d)

This is a hands-on engineering role within Security Governance, with guidance from experienced colleagues and opportunities to develop your skills. You will help assess the security of third-party software, open-source components and packages used in software development and infrastructure, and contribute to practical controls and technical recommendations. The focus is software and component security—not supplier questionnaires, commercial vendor assessments or ownership of third-party risk management (TPRM).

Your responsibilities
  • Help evaluate third-party software, commercial products, open-source libraries, packages and container images before introduction and throughout their use. Follow established assessment steps to review technical documentation, dependencies and security findings, and carry out targeted checks with guidance from experienced colleagues
  • Support the technical vulnerability-management process for third-party components across software development and infrastructure engineering. Help identify and validate findings, track remediation and verify fixes using established procedures
  • Review component provenance, software composition and dependency chains, including Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) where available. Investigate known vulnerabilities and unsupported components, and discuss suitable versions or alternatives with the team
  • Apply established security evaluation criteria, minimum technical requirements and software onboarding checks. Document findings to support approval decisions by accountable owners, and help maintain records of exceptions and compensating controls
  • Use and help configure security tooling such as Tenable, Aikido Security, Microsoft Defender and Nexus Repository Firewall. Support the integration of component checks into development pipelines and package repositories
  • Help validate findings and assess remediation priorities using exploitability, exposure, asset criticality and deployment context, with guidance on CVSS, EPSS and CISA KEV. Work with developers and infrastructure engineers on agreed fixes, escalating complex findings to experienced colleagues
  • Support secure deployment and hardening reviews of third-party software in relevant Windows, Linux, network, VMware, Kubernetes, AWS or Microsoft Azure environments. Use checklists to review permissions, configuration and integration boundaries, with support where needed
  • Assist with reviews of AI-related third-party software, packages and integrations, including data handling, permissions and external services. Check AI-assisted analysis with experienced colleagues and flag uncertain results
  • Help automate repeatable assessment tasks, collect evidence and track remediation. Maintain clear technical records and contribute to reporting on findings, exceptions and remediation progress for Security Governance and audit stakeholders
  • Work with software engineering, infrastructure, architecture and application owners to apply agreed security requirements during software development. Help prepare technical findings for TPRM and compliance colleagues when needed, without owning their supplier-risk processes
How to convince us
  • Some hands-on experience in security, software development or IT infrastructure, gained through a role, internship, apprenticeship, studies or personal projects. A specific degree or formal qualification is not required; curiosity, practical foundations and willingness to learn matter most
  • Basic understanding of software vulnerabilities and dependencies, with an interest in learning how to investigate findings and support remediation. You do not need to have owned a vulnerability-management process or meet a minimum number of years of experience
  • Foundational knowledge of software development or IT infrastructure, and an interest in building skills across both. Familiarity with topics such as the SDLC, OWASP Top 10, dependency management, package repositories or CI/CD is useful. Exposure to Windows/Linux, networking, Active Directory, VMware, Kubernetes or cloud platforms is welcome; you do not need experience across every area. An interest in AI-enabled software and its security risks is a plus
  • Initial exposure to vulnerability scanners, software composition analysis or repository controls is helpful. You will have the opportunity to learn tools such as Tenable, Microsoft Defender, Aikido Security and Nexus Repository Firewall. Experience with these specific tools or ServiceNow is not required
  • Basic scripting skills and an interest in using APIs and automating repeatable tasks. You can explain what your scripts do and are willing to learn how to produce clear, reproducible results
  • Willingness to learn how security requirements translate into technical checks and how to document findings, evidence and exceptions. Prior regulatory or IT compliance experience and certifications are welcome but not required
  • A careful, analytical approach, willingness to ask questions and readiness to seek support when needed. You enjoy working with developers and infrastructure colleagues, follow through on agreed tasks and can explain your findings clearly
  • Good written and spoken English (German a plus)
  • Basic understanding of software permissions, secure settings and system hardening, with a willingness to learn how to apply benchmarks such as CIS. Prior penetration-testing or red-team experience is not required
  • Only for holders of EU work permit

  • Erste Berührungspunkte mit Schwachstellenscannern, Software Composition Analysis oder Repository-Kontrollen sind hilfreich. Sie haben die Möglichkeit, Werkzeuge wie Tenable, Microsoft Defender, Aikido Security und Nexus Repository Firewall kennenzulernen. Erfahrung mit diesen konkreten Werkzeugen oder ServiceNow ist nicht erforderlich
  • Grundlegende Skripting-Kenntnisse und Interesse daran, APIs zu nutzen und wiederkehrende Aufgaben zu automatisieren. Sie können erklären, was Ihre Skripte tun, und möchten lernen, klare, reproduzierbare Ergebnisse zu erzielen
  • Bereitschaft zu lernen, wie Sicherheitsanforderungen in technische Prüfungen übersetzt und Befunde, Nachweise und Ausnahmen dokumentiert werden. Vorerfahrung in Regulatorik oder IT-Compliance sowie Zertifizierungen sind willkommen, aber nicht erforderlich
  • Eine sorgfältige analytische Herangehensweise, die Bereitschaft, Fragen zu stellen, und die Offenheit, bei Bedarf Unterstützung zu suchen. Sie arbeiten gern mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen aus Softwareentwicklung und Infrastruktur zusammen, erledigen vereinbarte Aufgaben zuverlässig und können Ihre Befunde verständlich erläutern
  • Gute Englischkenntnisse in Wort und Schrift; Deutschkenntnisse sind ein Plus
