About Nebius:

Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.

Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.

Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.

The role

We are seeking a Security Solutions Engineer with a strong background in strategic solution evaluation, vendor assessment, and hands-on Proof-of-Concept (PoC) validation. This role is a crucial bridge between identifying customer security requirements and implementing best-in-class, enterprise-grade solutions. You will be responsible for defining the criteria, researching the market, and executing technical validation for all major security tooling and services adopted by the company.

Key responsibilities:

1. Strategic Research & Requirement Definition

• Threat-to-Solution Mapping: Proactively analyze customer expectations, regulatory/compliance drivers, and threat models to define precise functional and non-functional requirements for new security solutions.

• Market Analysis & Scouting: Conduct thorough market scans to identify cutting-edge security products, platforms, and vendors across key domains (e.g., CSPM/CNAPP, DLP, IAM/IGA, EDR/XDR, data security, Kubernetes security, and AI/ML security).

• Vendor Due Diligence: Evaluate potential vendors based on technical capability, security posture, integration requirements, roadmap, data residency/compliance, and support quality, and shortlist candidates for the PoC phase.

2. Technical Validation & Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Leadership

• PoC Planning & Design: Develop detailed, objective, and threat-aligned test plans and success criteria for all security solution Proof-of-Concepts (PoCs), including quantitative success metrics, coverage of key attack scenarios, and opportunities for automation.

• Hands-on Environment Setup: Independently architect and deploy isolated PoC environments that accurately simulate our production infrastructure (e.g., setting up cloud VPCs, Kubernetes clusters, integrating with test data via IaC, and mimicking typical workloads).

• Testing & Analysis: Execute security research methodologies within the PoC (e.g., simulating attack scenarios, conducting deep feature validation, assessing false positive/negative rates) to rigorously test the vendor solution's effectiveness.

• Artifact Generation: Document all findings, including technical performance data, integration challenges, security gaps discovered, and clear comparative analysis metrics.

3. Decision Support & Communication

• Recommendation & Insight: Deliver comprehensive, data-driven reports and compelling presentations to security and product leadership and engineering stakeholders, providing a clear recommendation for the optimal solution and vendor selection.

• Integration Planning: Work closely with Security Engineering, Platform/Infra, and DevOps teams to ensure selected solutions are feasible to integrate, operate, and scale, and to hand off PoC learnings into implementation plans.

Must-haves:

• Experience: Minimum 6+ years in Security Engineering, Security Architecture, or a dedicated Security Research role focused on solution validation and vendor management.

• Technical Depth: Deep understanding of modern cloud security principles (e.g., AWS/Azure/GCP security models, Kubernetes/containers, network segmentation, IaC scanning, least privilege, identity-centric security, confidential computing).

• Programming and Automation - Strong scripting / programming skills (e.g., Python, Go, or similar) for automating PoCs, building test harnesses, and integrating tools via APIs and CI/CD pipelines.

• Solutions Expertise: Proven, hands-on experience with the architecture, deployment, and testing of two or more enterprise-grade security tools (e.g., SIEM/SOAR platforms, Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Vulnerability Management, Secrets Management).

• PoC Proficiency: Demonstrated ability to plan and execute complex technical Proof-of-Concepts, including setting up test environments and defining quantitative success metrics.

• Soft Skills: Exceptional analytical skills with the ability to translate complex technical findings into clear business risk and strategic recommendations. Strong written and verbal communication.

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience in Cloud or Cloud-Heavy companies.

• Experience in a compliance-focused industry (e.g., finance, healthcare, or cloud infrastructure) and familiarity with frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, or GDPR.

• Advanced professional certifications such as CISSP, CCSK or relevant cloud certifications (e.g., AWS/GCP/Azure Security Specialty).

• Experience contributing to security standards, open-source tools, talks, or publications.

Benefits & Perks:

• Competitive compensation

• Career growth and learning opportunities

• Flexibility and ownership

• Collaborative and innovative culture

• Opportunity to work on impactful AI projects

• International environment and talented teams
