What's the role:

As Cyber Resilience & Security Lead at Rauva, you will play a pivotal role in protecting the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of our systems, data, and digital assets. You’ll be responsible for driving the implementation of our cyber defence and operational resilience programs, ensuring readiness against both internal and external threats, and leading the charge in demonstrating compliance with DORA, NIS2, and ISO/IEC 27001.

  • Align our cyber strategy with regulatory requirements, including DORA, NIS2, EBA Guidelines, and ISO 27001
  • Collaborate with IT, legal, compliance, and product teams to enforce secure-by-design principles across the tech stack
  • Own the playbooks and communication protocols for incident response, crisis management, and disaster recovery
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for cybersecurity audits, penetration tests, and regulator inquiries
  • What’s your ideal background?
  • 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, including operational security, threat detection, and resilience
  • Prior leadership experience within a regulated environment (finance, fintech, banking, or critical infrastructure)
  • Deep familiarity with frameworks like DORA, ISO/IEC 27001, MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF, and TIBER-EU
  • Hands-on knowledge of SIEM, SOAR, vulnerability management platforms, red teaming tools, and cloud-native security tooling (e.g., GCP, AWS, Azure)
  • Strong analytical and incident management skills; ability to translate complex threats into executive-level reporting
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional leadership skills — you're comfortable in both the SOC and the boardroom
  • What we can offer you:
  • Hybrid Policy: 3 days in the office + 2 remote
  • Competitive Salary above the industry average
  • Meal Allowance
  • Leadership Opportunities (chances to lead projects and teams)
  • Enjoy off-site events and getaways to build a strong sense of community
  • Access to the latest accounting software and tools
  • Opportunities to advance within a rapidly expanding organization that aims to be present throughout Southern Europe in the very near future.
