Today, we are looking for a Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Engineer for our client based in Avry, in the canton of Fribourg.
This position is part of an international environment.
Your role includes:
* Contributing to the design, deployment, and improvement of security solutions across on‑premises and cloud environments, with a strong focus on Microsoft and Azure ecosystems (SIEM, endpoint protection, vulnerability management, cloud-native security controls).
* Helping to monitor and analyze security events, supporting alert triage, incident investigation, and response activities in collaboration with security and infrastructure teams.
* Participating in vulnerability assessments, remediation follow-up, and continuous hardening of systems (servers, networks, endpoints, and cloud services).
* Contributing to the implementation of security baselines, configuration standards, and alignment with recognized frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks, Zero Trust, and MITRE ATT&CK in a pragmatic way.
* Working on identity and access security with solutions like Active Directory, Entra ID (Azure AD), MFA, conditional access, RBAC and PAM, together with the infrastructure team.
* Supporting root cause analysis for security incidents and proposing long-term improvements to strengthen the overall security posture.
* Documenting policies, procedures, configuration standards, and incident reports, and sharing knowledge with colleagues and stakeholders.
* Providing security guidance to IT teams and projects, and participating in security committees and technical reviews as a trusted partner.
You:
* Have around 3 years of experience in IT security engineering, security operations, or infrastructure security, ideally in a multi-technology environment (on‑premises and/or cloud).
* Bring a solid foundation in some of the following areas (and a willingness to grow on the others): SIEM and endpoint security, IAM (AD / Entra ID / MFA / conditional access), Windows Server security, Azure and cloud security, or basic network and endpoint security.
* Are familiar with several security technologies such as EDR/XDR, firewalls/IDS/IPS, vulnerability scanners, DLP, and have exposure to at least one security framework (NIST, ISO 27001, CIS, Zero Trust, MITRE ATT&CK).
* Enjoy working collaboratively with infrastructure and operations teams and feel comfortable communicating with different technical and non-technical stakeholders.
* Are structured, curious, and detail‑oriented, with a strong interest in continuous learning and improving security practices over time.
* Ideally hold or aim to obtain security-related certifications (e.g. AZ‑500, SC‑200, Security+, CISSP, CEH); the company will support your development and certification path.
* Speak fluent English (C1 level); French or German are a strong asset in the local context.
