Requirements

into real, running controls — and then prove to auditors that they work. This is a senior, hands-on role for someone who thrives in fast-paced, heavily regulated environments and knows how to make compliance provable in production rather than on paper. OpenFX is expanding across Europe in a heavily regulated financial environment.

As we scale into EU markets, regulators, auditors, and enterprise partners expect provable, continuously operating security controls — not slide decks or one-off audits.

(DORA, GDPR, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and region-specific regulations) are increasing faster than our ability to operationalize them, and this role exists to close that gap. You will own the security controls and evidence that regulators and auditors care about, end to end — from translating regulatory language into concrete mechanisms through to audit walkthroughs and remediation. You will partner closely with Legal, Compliance, Risk, and engineering to ensure compliance is built into the platform rather than bolted on after the fact.

This role is based in Amsterdam, Netherlands (EU/EEA).

Ensure controls are not just documented, but actually enforced in AWS, Kubernetes, and application layers. Be the technical counterpart to Legal, Compliance & Risk Translate regulatory language into concrete security mechanisms. Partner with Legal and Compliance to monitor new regulations and assess technical impact.

Decide what is "good enough" vs. over-engineered for compliance. Run audits instead of reacting to them Own audit preparation, evidence collection, walkthroughs, and remediation tracking.

Build repeatable, automated evidence pipelines instead of last-minute scrambles. " Embed compliance into the platform Work with engineering to design systems that are secure by default and defensible to regulators. Ensure logging, access controls, encryption, monitoring, and change management meet regulatory expectations.

Automate compliance wherever possible Build tooling and scripts to continuously validate controls (access reviews, logging coverage, config drift). Reduce manual compliance work over time by pushing checks into code and infrastructure.

into technical controls. Strong working knowledge of AWS security fundamentals (IAM, logging, encryption, networking). Comfortable owning auditor interactions and explaining systems clearly.

Key Responsibilities

: Own audit-ready security controls Design, implement, and maintain technical and operational controls for DORA, GDPR, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and future regional

What We Are Looking For

Must-haves: 6+ years in security engineering, cloud security, or compliance-focused security roles. g. ICT risk management, incident classification and reporting, third-party/ICT vendor oversight, and digital operational resilience testing.

GDPR implementation experience is a strong bonus. Experience supporting SOC 2 and/or ISO 27001 audits (strong plus).
