Identity & Security Engineer (m/f/d)

About the job

As an Identity & Security Engineer, you work on solutions that enable people to navigate the digital world securely. Together with our team, you develop technologies for identification, authentication, and digital verification – aiming to balance security and user-friendliness.

You work on the further development of the Heidi Universe, our platform for digital credentials and secure authentication. This includes developing scalable systems for issuing, managing, and verifying digital credentials as well as secure user authentication. In doing so, you engage with modern cryptographic methods, identity standards, and security architectures.

A central part of your work is also the further development of the Heidi Wallet App, which allows users to securely manage digital credentials on their devices. You work on topics such as secure storage, synchronization between devices, interoperability with various services, and the integration of new standards and protocols.

Together with backend, mobile, and security specialists, you ensure that our solutions are technically robust, secure, and scalable in the long term – always in line with current developments around digital identities, privacy, and modern security architectures.

You want to develop technologies that make a real contribution to security and trust in everyday digital life. You are passionate about working on secure systems, identity solutions, and cryptographic methods – whether designing an architecture, implementing a protocol, or analyzing a security issue. You enjoy engaging with new technologies and standards, such as digital identities, Verifiable Credentials, OAuth 2.0, or the Swiss e-ID ecosystem, and translating these into functional products. You like working in a team, contribute your own ideas, and look for clean, well-thought-out solutions to complex technical challenges.
