As a Product Cybersecurity Expert, you will play a key role in ensuring cybersecurity is embedded into the development of Sonova's connected hearing solutions—from embedded software and mobile applications to cloud-based services.
Working closely with software engineers, product teams, architects, quality, and regulatory experts, you'll help integrate security into every stage of the product development lifecycle. Rather than focusing on operational security, you'll enable engineering teams to build secure products by design, balancing innovation, usability, compliance, and customer trust.
If you have a strong software engineering background and have expanded your expertise into product cybersecurity, this is an opportunity to shape technologies that improve the lives of millions of people worldwide.
More about the role
- Integrate cybersecurity throughout the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (Secure SDLC) for connected medical devices, embedded software, mobile applications, and cloud services.
- Lead threat modeling activities, cybersecurity risk assessments, and mitigation planning together with global R&D teams.
- Partner with software engineering teams to embed security into development workflows, DevSecOps practices, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Coordinate product vulnerability management activities, including assessment, prioritization, remediation tracking, and post-market monitoring.
- Support regulatory submissions and quality processes by preparing cybersecurity documentation and evidence.
- Advise engineering, product management, quality, and regulatory teams on practical, risk-based cybersecurity decisions.
- Promote a security-first mindset by coaching teams, supporting security champions, and driving continuous improvement across R&D.
