IT Risk Engineer

At bunq, we're on a mission to Make Life Easy for our users by creating the most user-centric banking experience out there. To deliver on that promise, our services must be reliable 100% of the time. That's where you come in. We're looking for a IT Risk Engineer who takes ownership of making sure our ICT infrastructure can withstand and recover from disruption. You'll continuously test and challenge our systems, controls, and monitoring so weaknesses are found before they become incidents, protecting user’s trust and letting bunq scale without operational risk growing alongside it. Take Ownership 🚀 As a IT Risk Engineer, you'll show bunq's excellence both inside and out by keeping our critical systems resilient and our controls effective. Here's how you'll do it: Continuously test and challenge bunq's ICT infrastructure to surface weaknesses before they affect our user. Design and own automated control testing and monitoring that detects failures early and validates alerts before they escalate. Lead business continuity and disaster recovery testing, designing realistic drills for technology, business processes, and critical suppliers. Interpret test and monitoring results to distinguish meaningful risk from noise, and prioritize remediation accordingly. Coordinate across technical and business teams, challenging control owners and driving weaknesses through to resolution. Use AI to build and scale testing, monitoring, and risk processes rather than running them manually. You have deep knowledge of operational and ICT resilience and can assess whether critical services can withstand and recover from disruption. You have proven skills in automated control testing and monitoring, and can design continuous tests and alerts that catch control failures early. You have deep expertise in business continuity and resilience testing, and can design realistic drills across technology, process, and supplier risk. You have strong risk judgement and analytical skills, and can prioritize remediation based on what actually matters. You have proven stakeholder management and challenge skills, and can coordinate and push technical and business teams to resolution. You're comfortable using AI to design and build solutions that improve and scale risk processes, not just support your own workflow.
