Private equity has always been a sought-after asset class due to its performance potential.

However, steep entry barriers, including high minimum investments (~€10m), hefty paperwork and the challenge of selecting the right fund have traditionally kept individual investors at bay, with access largely limited to big institutions or a select few.

Enter Moonfare.

We've made investing in private equity more accessible and straightforward with our fully digital investment platform. Now, qualified investors can access some of the most sought-after private market funds at lower minimum investment amounts*.

The diverse Moonfare team – which includes alumni from top private banks, groundbreaking startups and beyond – is united in pushing boundaries and redefining the private equity landscape.

Security Engineer (m/f/d)

We’re looking for a proactive, technically sharp, and security-obsessed engineer to help elevate and protect our systems as we scale. This is a unique opportunity to have a broad impact across the business, influencing how we detect, prevent, and respond to security threats in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

You’ll serve as both a hands-on security expert and a strategic advisor, monitoring and responding to threats, conducting risk assessments, and shaping the evolution of our security infrastructure. Your work will span incident response, vulnerability management, cross-functional collaboration, and continuous improvement of our protocols and tooling. This role sits at the intersection of technical depth and business impact, offering the chance to directly influence security strategy through data-driven insights and trusted partnerships across teams.

You will:

  • Monitor, analyze, and respond to security incidents and alerts across enterprise systems
  • Conduct risk assessments and vulnerability analyses to identify and remediate security gaps
  • Implement, maintain, and improve security measures, protocols, and tools to protect sensitive data.
  • Support and maintain incident response applications and security orchestration/automation tools.
  • Collaborate with IT, Engineering, and business teams to ensure security is integrated into projects and operations
  • Assist in the development and enforcement of security standards, policies, and procedures.
  • Participate in security audits, compliance reviews, and regulatory assessments.
  • Document incidents, investigations, and remediation actions for compliance and reporting purposes

The next Moonfarian:

  • 3–5 years of experience in information security, cybersecurity engineering, or a related technical role.
  • Relevant certifications such as AWS Security Specialist, CompTIA Security+, Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH); advanced certifications (CISSP, CISM) are a plus.
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks relevant to financial services ( SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, DORA)
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities, able to present complex data in accessible formats
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment and manage cross-functional stakeholders
  • High integrity, attention to detail, and a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating risks
  • Adaptability and willingness to learn new technologies and processes
  • Strong sense of responsibility and ownership over assigned tasks

If you feel you do not meet all of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply!
