We are an international, hybrid team across Germany, the Netherlands and the UK, working with transparency, respect, collaboration and a healthy sense of fun. At the heart of our work is the OT Security Operations Center (OT SOC), where we provide network monitoring, threat and vulnerability management, asset and configuration support, as well as security assessments, system hardening and red/purple team activities.

Your tasks in this role:

• Monitor and analyse security events and alerts using SIEM, NSM and related tools.
• Respond to incidents in real time, from containment and recovery to reporting and follow-up.
• Develop and maintain detection use cases and incident response playbooks for OT/ICS threats.
• Assess and improve visibility by identifying and closing monitoring and logging gaps.
• Investigate incidents thoroughly, performing root cause analysis and sharing lessons learned.
• Document clearly and consistently all findings, incidents and improvements.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of processes, tooling, documentation, audits and knowledge sharing.

This role includes on-call duties and occasional travel to sites and team meetings in Germany, the Netherlands, the UK and Turkey.

Your profile

• Experience with NSM tools (e.g. Dragos, Claroty, Tenable) and log/security analysis platforms (Elastic, Splunk, Wazuh, Graylog, Zeek, Suricata); Solid knowledge of SIEM, SOAR, IDS/IPS and endpoint security.
• Hands-on experience with incident response and familiarity with the MITRE ATT&CK for ICS framework.
• Familiarity with OT/ICS protocols such as Modbus, DNP3, OPC, PROFINET, S7Comm, IEC 60870-5-104, MMS.
• Strong communication skills in English and German.

Advantageous, but not essential

• Relevant certifications (e.g. GRID, GICSP, GCIH, CompTIA CySA+, Security+).
• Skills in scripting/automation (Python, PowerShell) and security in virtualisation (VMware, KVM, KubeVirt) and container environments (Kubernetes, Docker).
• Experience at a SOC Managed Service Provider or in industrial/OT environments (energy, manufacturing, telecom or critical infrastructure).

RWE is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment – we value your passion, your willingness to learn and your desire to thrive.
