  • About Codesphere

    Codesphere is a Virtual Cloud Provider from Germany building the future of sovereign cloud infrastructure. Our platform gives enterprises and governments full sovereignty without giving up modern cloud capability – a vision recently validated by a series of multi-million European government tenders.

    Since our founding in Karlsruhe in 2020, we’ve expanded into an international team of 60+ experts. Based in Karlsruhe and Munich and backed by top-tier investors, we are chasing a bold vision.

    We’re scaling fast and would love for you to join us and grow alongside us 🚀

    About the role

    Codesphere runs cloud infrastructure that enterprises and governments depend on – security is not an afterthought, it's a foundation. As a Senior Security & Compliance Engineer (m/f/d), you own the security posture of our platform: from vulnerability management and incident response to compliance frameworks and developer enablement.

    What you'll drive

    • You conduct security assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning – and drive remediation with development teams

    • You manage security scanning tooling (DAST/SAST) and perform security code reviews

    • You design and implement security controls across our full technology stack, defining and enforcing standards for development, infrastructure, and data

    • You integrate security into our CI/CD pipelines and development processes – Shift Left and DevSecOps in practice, not just on paper

    • You develop and maintain our Security Incident Response Plan, monitor security logs via SIEM, and lead forensic analysis when needed

    • You ensure compliance with relevant standards and regulations – including GDPR and ISO 27001

    • You manage IAM systems with a least privilege approach

    • You develop and deliver security awareness training for the whole company – and specialised secure coding training for engineering teams

    What makes you a great fit

    • 5+ years in a security engineering or similar role, ideally in a cloud or SaaS environment

    • Hands-on experience with penetration testing, vulnerability management, and DAST/SAST tooling

    • Solid understanding of DevSecOps principles and CI/CD security integration

    • Familiarity with SIEM tools, incident response, and forensic analysis

    • Knowledge of relevant compliance frameworks – GDPR, ISO 27001, and ideally BSI IT-Grundschutz

    • Strong communicator – able to translate security risks into clear guidance for both technical and non-technical audiences

    • Fluent in English; German is a strong plus given the nature of our compliance landscape

    What's in it for you

    • 32 days of paid time off – 30 regular vacation days plus Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve off

    • Meal allowance – up to 15 digital vouchers per month, adding up to over €100 net for you

    • Flexibility – hybrid work setup with mobile work options and flexibility around core hours

    • Steep learning curve – fast-moving environment, real ownership, and a front-row seat to scaling a company

    • Job-Rad – lease a bike through us, tax-free

    • Gym access – stay active on site (Karlsruhe office only)

    • Employee events – from team offsites to regular get-togethers

    • Company pension scheme – company-supported pension to set you up for later

    • Great public transport links – both offices are within walking distance of tram and metro stops
