Most companies bury information security a few layers down, somewhere near legal, where the main job is to say no.
At TechWolf it reports into me, the CTO. Two reasons.
The first is commercial: we sell to the biggest banks, pharma and technology companies in the world, and they all care very deeply about the topic. Doing an exceptional job here can make a huge difference.
The second is AI. Our security and compliance team is small, and between them they carry ISO 27001, SOC 2, ISO 42001, GDPR and the EU AI Act. Answering everything by hand doesn't scale. So the team builds instead: internal tooling that hands their expertise to the rest of the company, so a hundred people can make good security calls without waiting in a queue.
That makes this job different from security work in most organizations. You own a product that you scale to the organization.
We're hiring a Senior Information Security Officer in Ghent to do exactly that. Enterprise assurance end to end, the full audit cycles, the risk methodology, and the AI-first tooling that makes all of it scale. You'd work closely with our Security Officer and with me.
If security at your company feels like the thing people route around, this is the opposite of that. Link in comments.
