Your job

The Crypto Services team ensures that important data within the bank can be encrypted and secured correctly. You will therefore start working with cryptography, which in ancient Greek means so much as "hidden writing", but in modern society it mainly stands for the technology used to secure data. The team provides various encryption-related services to the entire holding. You can think of key and certificate management, in which security keys and certificates are created and stored and renewed in a safe manner when necessary. In addition, the team works with Hardware Security Modules (HSM) to encrypt and decrypt information using complex algorithms. This is a piece of high-tech hardware and software that, when used properly, guarantees the highest level of security for the bank. It is your job to explain these complex processes to the business in a simple way so that they can use them as well and safely as possible. This is called HSM as a service.

• The team works according to the DevOps & Agile methodology. Every morning you attend the stand-up in which the tasks are divided and monitored.
• You are working on improving the Crypto Services, based on user stories.
• You will make sure that the Crypto Services are up and running. Occasionally there are incidents that occur that you are going to look into. It sometimes happens, for example, that a HSM is no longer functioning.
• For your work you often engage with various stakeholders such as other IT departments, software suppliers or, for example, the data center.

Working environment

You can imagine that information security is a major asset within the bank. In this role you will play an important role in this by making data encryption accessible to the entire bank. You will help various departments within the bank with the management of encryption keys and ensure that all applications can use the encryption services the team is offering. A challenging role for someone who likes to explain a complex process such as encryption in a simple way and make it accessible within the bank. The team currently consists of 11 members with different nationalities and is ready for further expansion. The working language within the team is English.
