Cyber Security Developer

Westermo is currently recruiting a Cyber Security Developer to join our R&D team in Västerås.

At Westermo we develop software for our hardware with tough system resource constraints. We develop a Linux based OS, based on Linux as we integrate a variety of Open Source packages along with a large amount of software we develop from scratch.

So, who are we looking for?

As a developer of our networking products, you are primarily working on developing our custom Linux to our network OS - WeOS. In order to assure the quality of our solutions, we use a risk-based test strategy with an advanced automated test framework. The test framework provides the basis of the risk-based testing that is run every night, to provide feedback to all of our developers.

You are responsible for developing WeOS as well as developing new test cases to verify and validate the changes that you and your team work with. The development of WeOS is done in C and the test cases are implemented in Python. You like to support your colleagues with for ex. coordination of your common tasks. You understand what it means to analyze the attack vector in products and want to take part in Westermo's PSIRT.

We use tools like Achilles and Nessus to ensure that the basic level of security in our products are known and meets our requirements.

The work is largely about evaluating and implementing new technologies and solutions. At Westermo there is always room for initiative and creativity. In addition to working with WeOS development, we expect you to contribute with ideas of improvements to our processes. If you like to develop new solutions, solve problems and develop for the future - then Westermo is the place for you to grow.

We believe that you can strengthen both the team and our organization. You will enjoy working with us if you are creative and a team player. You are also structured and willing to walk the extra mile to achieve high product quality. Together we can develop Westermo's WeOS offer at an even higher level.

Requirements
We are looking for someone who is interested in software development and is eager to work with Cyber Security in everything that concerns our products.

As a developer at Westermo, you will become an expert on our products and our network solutions. It is therefore important that you have good experience within data communications, Linux and managing CVEs.

We believe you have at least a Bachelore's degree in Software Engineering and 5 years experience in product and software development. In this position you need to have a very good knowledge in Swedish and English, both written & spoken.

You master the development and analysis of software on Linux both in user space and kernel space and you can also support other developers. You are a very experienced C programmer and you also have a good knowledge in Python and shell script. In addition, you have a good understanding of how different hardware architectural register sets and memory structures affect software from a security perspective.

You have good experience with the Git source code management tool.

You can lead a small team with for example managing CVEs.

It is an advantage if you have experience from industrial product development.
