Working Student - Cyber Security

A Snapshot of Your Day

As a Working Student in the Cybersecurity Services team, you will support the delivery of cybersecurity services for IT and OT environments, including industrial and energy systems. You will help with vulnerability management, security assessments and cybersecurity documentation. All hands-on technical work takes place on digital twins and replica environments, never on live customer systems. This lets you build practical skills in a safe, realistic setting.

How You'll Make an Impact

• Support vulnerability management activities on digital twins and replica environments by running scans, analysing findings, tracking remediation efforts, and preparing structured vulnerability reports.
• Assist with IT/OT security and risk assessments through information gathering, system documentation reviews, and the documentation of findings and recommendations.
• Help develop, maintain, and update cybersecurity policies, procedures, and supporting documentation in alignment with frameworks such as NIS2 and IEC 62443.
• Support system hardening activities by preparing and applying hardening checklists and performing CIS Benchmark checks for Windows and Linux systems in test environments.
• Contribute to customer deliverables, including reports, presentations, and service materials, by preparing input, structuring content, and ensuring consistent quality standards.
• Create security awareness and training materials that explain cybersecurity concepts in a clear and accessible manner, while developing small automations and scripts (e.g., PowerShell, Python, Excel-based reporting) to improve the efficiency of recurring tasks and reporting.

What You Bring

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, Automation/Control Engineering, Electrical/Power Engineering, or a related field.
• No formal work experience required; however, university projects, home labs, or personal IT/cybersecurity projects are considered an advantage.
• Basic knowledge of networking concepts (TCP/IP, IP addressing, VLANs, routing and switching) and Windows/Linux server administration.
• Interest in Operational Technology (OT) environments and industrial protocols such as IEC 61850, IEC 62443, and Modbus is a plus.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills, with a structured approach to work and great attention to detail.
• Very good knowledge of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) and strong English communication skills, both written and spoken.
