• Plan and specify intrusion detection systems, video and video analytics, access control and PSIM – from first concept to detailed engineering
• Prepare technical specifications, functional and interface descriptions and support tenders and technology selection
• Steer and challenge security integrators worldwide, review their designs and implementation quality and correct course where needed
• Take over (sub-)project management in critical phases
• Advise our internal security managers and actively contribute to the further development of our security standards

Your Profile:

• Degree in Security & Safety Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Information Technology or a comparable STEM field; alternatively, a relevant technical qualification with matching experience
• At least 5 years’ experience in planning or managing demanding security or infrastructure projects, ideally in an international context
• Strong expertise in several of the following: intrusion detection, video surveillance/analytics, access control, control room / PSIM solutions
• Plus: experience with fire detection systems or the design of fire protection concepts, and with video analytics and security-related AI
• Ability to explain complex technical topics clearly, take decisions and confidently coordinate international stakeholders and suppliers
• Very good English skills; German is an advantage, willingness to travel internationally
