[Careers]

Location: hybrid, remote from anywhere in Germany or in our office, c/o CHIC, Bismarckstraße 10-12, 10625 Berlin
Hours: part-time (4+ days) or full-time
Experience: Senior, at least 5 years of professional experience
Salary: 90,000 EUR gross per year (Advisor band, see salary structure), plus a share in the profit

The role

You advise companies on the security of their cloud and open source environments and own those projects yourself, from the first look at the infrastructure to the prioritised list of measures. The role is technically deep and it is consulting: you read Terraform, Kubernetes manifests and pipeline configuration yourself and then explain to management what follows from it. With us you work in a team without hierarchy and without a consulting pyramid, with a lot of freedom to decide, fixed and transparent salaries and a share in the profit.

About us

We are different, and we are looking for more people who are different too. Our mission is to defend European values by protecting and strengthening the Mittelstand, Europe's mid-sized companies. We share the vision of creating impact by enabling as many organisations as possible to build real resilience. Everyone at int[cube] shares in our success. More on how we work and organise ourselves: careers at int[cube].

Your tasks

• Cloud and platform security: you assess and harden cloud environments, container platforms and CI/CD pipelines, vendor-neutral and closer to the code than to the licence model.
• Attack surface: together with our clients you build attack surface management that works, from asset discovery and scans to the triage of results.
• Technical due diligence: for private equity mandates you look at the technology of target companies and say clearly, within a few days, where the risks are.
• Project ownership: you run your client projects on your own from planning to completion and are the main contact.
• Knowledge transfer: you bring your knowledge into our cohorts, in sessions with several companies at once.

What you bring

• Depth in at least one public cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP) and in Linux, container and open source stacks
• You read code and configuration and derive concrete, prioritised risks from it
• Several years of consulting or project work for external clients that you planned, steered and completed yourself
• You explain technical results so that admins and management can work with them
• Business-fluent German, English at least C1
• Willingness to work on site, on average about 10% of your time

Nice to have

• Offensive security as a second skill, such as pentesting or thinking in attack paths
• Experience with IaC and DevSecOps tooling (Terraform, Kubernetes, pipeline security)
• Contributions to open source projects
• Knowledge of relevant frameworks such as NIS2, DORA or ISO 27001

We mean the first list; the second is no hurdle. A formal degree does not matter to us, and neither does a straight CV.

Team

You work in the int[cube] delivery team. We are around ten people in all, in Berlin and remote, and we all know each other personally. We are warm with each other and focused at work. Between us we cover security architecture, regulation (NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001), cloud and incident response, so for almost any question you will find someone who has had it before.

How we work

So you can judge whether this suits you:

• You start on your own projects quickly. We have no consulting pyramid and no months of onboarding. After a short time you are in front of clients yourself.
• Nobody is your line manager. We organise ourselves in roles with clear responsibility. You plan your own work, keep your commitments and ask for help when you need it.
• Our clients are demanding. Operators of critical infrastructure and investors on tight deadlines expect clear statements and reliability.
• We are small. You work on several topics in parallel, and not everything is fully defined when you start.
• We work intensively with AI, in client projects and internally.

If you need tight guidelines, a big team behind you or a narrowly defined field, you will not be happy with us. If you are looking for responsibility and like to decide for yourself how you get to the result, you very likely will.

How it works

1. Getting to know each other: a first video call, about an hour. We talk about your path, the role and how we work.
2. Expert conversation: we go through concrete situations from your project work and ours. We do not ask about your weaknesses; we want to see how you think and work.
3. Conversation with the management: expectations on both sides, salary and terms, and any questions you still have.
4. Meet the team (optional): if you like, you meet the whole team before you decide.

The process should let you check just as much whether we suit you. After each step you hear back from us within a few days, even if it is a no.
