Opdrachtomschrijving
Role Summary
For the development and commissioning of the PALLAS Reactor, we are looking for an experienced
IT/OT Cybersecurity Architect.
In this role, you will be responsible for supporting and guiding the development, integration, and implementation of cybersecurity within the Operational Technology (OT) environment of the PALLAS Reactor.
You will operate at the intersection of OT, cybersecurity, enterprise architecture, and nuclear safety. Your responsibility will be to ensure that cybersecurity is fully integrated into the architecture and technical implementation of the reactor and production environment, from the design phase through to commissioning.
You will work closely with various disciplines, including OT engineering, IT, cybersecurity, system architecture, suppliers, and project and commissioning teams.

What Makes This Role Unique?
In this role, you will work on cybersecurity within an environment where availability, integrity, safety, and security are all of critical importance. You will have the opportunity to approach cybersecurity not merely as an IT issue, but as an integral part of the architecture and lifecycle of a nuclear installation.
The role therefore requires someone who can think both strategically and architecturally, while also possessing sufficient technical depth to effectively assess and guide cybersecurity challenges within complex OT environments.
This is a challenging architecture role for an experienced OT cybersecurity professional who wants to apply their expertise within a unique nuclear environment.

Key Responsibilities
As an OT Cybersecurity Architect, you will be responsible for supporting and guiding:
- The integration of cybersecurity into the digital enterprise strategy of the PALLAS Reactor for the production environments.
- The integration of PALLAS Reactor OT systems with the PALLAS cybersecurity reference architecture and associated Cyber Security Support systems.
- Guiding the full lifecycle of cybersecurity solutions, including:
- acquisition;
- onboarding;
- installation;
- integration;
- testing;
- acceptance;
- commissioning.
- Ensuring the secure integration of OT systems within the PALLAS Reactor and their connection to IT business systems.
- Assessing and guiding cybersecurity aspects throughout the onboarding, installation, integration, testing, acceptance, and commissioning of these connections.
- Applying cybersecurity principles within critical security and safety systems.
- Ensuring alignment between the cybersecurity architecture, OT architecture, and the broader enterprise architecture.
- Supporting design decisions and translating cybersecurity requirements into concrete architectural and integration solutions.
