Are you passionate about cyber security? Do you have the skills to see through the architectural stack, from business to technical solutions? Can you guide a client through the correct choices, both in short term and from the perspective of long-term resilience and risk management?

If your answer is YES,

then you want to APPLY!

Our clients increasingly require architectural insight to cater for their transformation journeys, such as adopting agile development models, cloud and edge infrastructure, and data driven businesses. We need to grow our team to meet this demand. We believe that we are a good match for you who has an entrepreneurial mindset and the drive to shape the future. You will be a part of our Finnish consultant team, but at the same time a respected member of a bigger global consulting team. You will be a key stakeholder in improving the information security posture and cyber resilience of our clients. F-Secure Consulting has a clear vision and is on a strong growth path - for the years to come. We want you to be a part of this journey.

The work as a Security Architect or a Security Management Consultant is characterized by trust and we always strive for long term client-relationships and to be the trusted information security advisor for our clients. Our vision is to provide Finland’s most qualified cyber advisory to our clients, adapted to suit their specific preconditions, so that the client improves their effective security posture, and their risks are mitigated. We help our clients by prioritizing where to focus their budgets to optimize their return on cyber security investments in their quest for cyber resilience. You will also be part of a great team working closely with extremely talented consultants, both security and risk management experts as well as technical security experts. We have a great atmosphere with a lot of fun, collaboration and great learning and development opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

This, on daily basis, translates to that we assist our clients in their information security needs on strategic, tactical and operational level. Typical client engagements include advising clients and their product development staff on their architecture and technology decisions, process improvement, risk assessment and coaching. You will most likely be involved in activities such as:

  • Performing risk assessments on both architectural and business level

  • Defining and guiding architecture and technology choices, especially in the areas of technical architecture

  • Engaging with various stakeholders, including business, IT, product management and software development organisations

What are we looking for?

We are looking for individuals that we believe exhibit ambition, aspiration to continue to learn, passion to assist our clients as a trusted advisor, versatility in skillset and personality traits that will be appreciated both by clients and colleagues. We appreciate and expect professional pride and integrity. Being able to develop and maintain good and long-term working relations with customers and to create a network within F-Secure is pivotal, as is thriving in both independent and team-based settings.

  • 2-5 years of professional experience within information security with a suitable educational background.

  • Your current role is probably a software or security architect, a seasoned developer, a information security consultant, security manager, information security auditor, or similar.

  • You have a track record of guiding technology choices and supporting product management and development stakeholders.

Experience within the following fields is desired:

  • Architectural patterns, particularly those dealing in distributed systems, cloud, and data analysis

  • First-hand experience of working in lean and agile organisations

  • Information security frameworks and standards, including ISO/IEC standards, PCI DSS and others, including national frameworks

  • Legal requirements for information security, such as GDPR and national legislation

  • Risk assessment and threat modeling

  • Proven skills to work with roles within software development, such as technical architects, software developers and product management, on their terms

  • Fluent Finnish and English, both spoken and written

Bonus points

  • Recognized certifications within risk, security and privacy management, agile and lean methods, IT management and project management are a plus, but not a requirement
