Senior OT Security Expert (M/V/X)

Is this machine, product, process, or company safe, trustworthy and compliant? That is the question our customers bring to us, and answering it is our mission. For more than 150 years, Vinçotte has helped industry, government, and society answer exactly that question. Since a few years we are expanding our cybersecurity and AI security team to bring that same trusted, independent perspective to the digital world.

Vinçotte has been Belgium's most trusted inspection and certification authority. You may know us best as the team that inspects your elevator, your electrical installation, or the safety of your industrial process. In 2022 Vinçotte became part of Kiwa Group, a global TIC (Testing, Inspection & Certification) leader with more than 15,000 experts across 35 countries. In the past decade the world has changed. Safety can no longer be guaranteed without addressing cybersecurity and AI security. A connected machine, an AI-driven process, or a digital product carries risks that are just as real as a faulty industrial process, and the consequences of getting it wrong can be just as severe. That is why Kiwa has built a dedicated "Trust in Digital" team.

We approach cybersecurity and AI security the way we have always approached safety: independently, rigorously, and from a position of trust. Not as an IT vendor, but as a neutral third-party assurance partner with deep industrial roots. The mission of our Trust in Digital team is to allow our customers to innovate in confidence and to uphold trust in digital. A wave of new regulation (NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the AI Act, the Machinery Regulation) is creating both urgency and opportunity. Our customers need a partner who understands both the technology and the regulatory landscape, and who can provide independent, credible assurance. That is exactly where we stand. We recently launched the Kiwa Trust in Digital Partner Program, bringing together an ecosystem of expert partners to deliver end-to-end assurance: from training and design to independent verification, testing, and certification. The program is growing fast, and so is the team behind it.
