Your responsibilities
CERN runs a plethora of on-site and cloud-based IT services including MS Azure and Google Workspace cloud services as well as local control systems. Based on standard IT technologies but also on in-house developments, these IT services require a permanent adaptation of their security stance commensurate with CERN’s risk appetite. The CERN Computer Security Team is mandated to protect the operations and reputation of the Organization, including those IT services, against any kind of cyber-threat.
As a successful candidate you will take an active role in reviewing and improving the security of those IT services:
Furthermore, we offer you the possibility to delve into pure security operations, running separately your own security project(s), and contributing to incident handling in the CERN CSIRT.

What we offer
About us
At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter – fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.
