Nexxa is building the best AI systems for heavy industries — enabling machines, systems, and operations to think, decide, and act autonomously across manufacturing, large-scale infrastructure, logistics, and legacy environments.

Our mission is to translate deep technical breakthroughs into operational reality, solving some of the hardest systems-level problems in industry.

About the Role

Selling autonomous systems into manufacturing, infrastructure, and logistics means our customers audit us before they trust us — security and compliance are a precondition for deploying our platform, not a function beside it.

We hold SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, and we're moving toward more certifications because governing autonomous industrial systems responsibly is a commercial requirement in our market. You'll own our certification programs and the security and infrastructure underneath them — across our multi-account AWS organization, GCP footprint, and internal engineering platform. This role covers our own corporate and cloud environments, not customer plant-floor or control-system security.

This role is ideal for candidates who want real, ongoing ownership of a security function, including standing up and running one of the industry's first AI management systems, at a company where trust and compliance directly determine whether customers deploy the platform at all.

What You'll Do

- Own the compliance calendar across SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 — evidence collection, access and vendor reviews, control monitoring, internal audit, management review, policy refresh, and audit readiness

- Triage security findings across cloud posture, code scanning, dependencies, and secrets,



and drive remediation to closure

- Remediate what you triage directly in infrastructure as code, IAM policy, and pipeline configuration

- Administer identity and access across cloud and SaaS, including SSO/federation, least-privilege roles, and the joiner/mover/leaver lifecycle

- Support internal IT operations — endpoint fleet and device compliance, SaaS and license administration, asset inventory, support requests — while keeping the human cost of them flat as the company grows

- Serve as the working interface to external auditors, our certification body, and customer security and procurement reviews

- Build controls into infrastructure so they hold automatically, replacing manual verification with guardrails that fail closed

- Harden CI/CD and the software supply chain — build identity, artifact provenance, dependency and secret hygiene

- Debug production issues across cloud infrastructure, containers, and networking, and write the postmortem that keeps the fix from being forgotten

- Produce documentation others rely on: runbooks, control narratives, architecture notes, postmortems

Required Qualifications

- Skilled experience in security engineering, infrastructure/platform engineering, or a closely related technical role — broad competence across security,



networking, and operating systems, with real depth in at least one

- Deep hands-on experience with:

- Security fundamentals — trust boundaries and blast radius, authentication vs. authorization, least privilege, secrets handling, and judging real-world exploitability of findings

- Networking — diagnosing connectivity issues across routing, firewalls/security groups, DNS, TLS termination, and proxies; comfortable with VPN/private connectivity and packet captures

- Linux operating systems — processes, filesystems, permissions, systemd, resource limits, log analysis, and how containers relate to the host

- Cloud infrastructure — hands-on with AWS or GCP beyond the console: IAM, networking, compute, and their failure modes

- Strong scripting/automation skills (Python, Bash, Go, or similar) — recurring manual work gets scripted away, not tracked by hand

- Strong writing ability: control narratives, runbooks, postmortems, audit responses, risk assessments

- Proven judgment under ambiguity — able to rank findings honestly and defend the ranking

- CS/CE degree or equivalent hands-on experience

Preferred Qualifications

- Hands-on ISO 27001 experience — operating an ISMS, recertification, surveillance audits, internal audit programmes, Statement of Applicability, risk treatment

- SOC 2 experience in practice — producing evidence, answering auditor requests, remediating findings against a real deadline

- Any exposure to AI governance or ISO 42001 — AI risk assessment, model inventory, AI lifecycle controls, the EU AI Act

- Infrastr
