The Mission of the Security Officer

Build and own the classified information security posture that lets ICEYE Intelligence GmbH handle Verschlusssachen (VS) and the NATO and EU equivalents.

You will build the defensible, audit-ready Geheimschutz framework for ICEYE Germany. You design it, run it, and represent it to the competent authorities. You are also the trusted advisor to the Geschäftsführer and the first point of contact for all security matters.

This is a role for a builder: someone who is confident in defining, maintaining and communicating the security framework that enables ICEYE's continued growth and lets us meet our obligations to our customers.

To our customers we provide intelligence with unmatched quality, latency and revisit times, in any weather, day or night. To governments who choose to operate their own constellation we provide this proven capability as a sovereign system.

ICEYE-built constellations serve customers in defence and intelligence, environmental monitoring, insurance and emergency management. We enable fast decisions that contribute to a safer future.

Founded and headquartered in Finland, ICEYE operates globally with over 1000 employees across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

What you'll do

• Own the roadmap. Define and execute the plan that takes ICEYE Intelligence GmbH from today's baseline to fully cleared operations at the required national, NATO and EU levels. This covers admission to the Geheimschutzbetreuung (facility security clearance), personnel clearances, IT approval and the operational processes underneath.

• Be the appointed Geheimschutzbeauftragter. Act as the company's official security officer. Represent ICEYE with the respective authorities. Lead all interactions with these bodies with credibility and precision.

• Build the framework. Partner with Global Security to implement the hardened frameworks and systems.

• Run the clearance pipeline. Coordinate Sicherheitsüberprüfungen (SÜG) and Sicherheitserklärungen across the German organisation, plus NATO/EU personnel clearance certificates, in close coordination with Global Security so the business stays ahead of programme needs.

• Drive IT approval. Work with IT and Global Security to take classified systems through BSI-aligned approval (Zulassung) for the required classification levels.

• Enable the business. Translate security requirements into practical guidance: handling of VS, visit requests, travel, subcontractors and procurement. Run incident reporting and rehearsed crisis procedures.
