Engineering Manager – AXIS OS Security & Compliance, Lund
Do you want to lead one of the most strategic cybersecurity initiatives at Axis?
Are you passionate about software security, compliance, and building high-performing engineering teams?
We are now looking for an Engineering Manager to strengthen AXIS OS Cyber Security — with a particular focus on software security compliance.
Your future team
AXIS OS is the Linux-based platform powering Axis devices — from network cameras and speakers to access control and recording solutions. It is the secure foundation of our entire product ecosystem and a key enabler for innovation, scalability, and long-term customer value.
Security is embedded into everything we build. AXIS OS follows the Axis Security Development Model (ASDM) and is reinforced by hardware-based security through Axis Edge Vault. The platform is designed to meet international cybersecurity standards and compliance frameworks such as ETSI EN 303 645 and FIPS 140, while leveraging industry-standard open-source technologies.
As cybersecurity requirements continue to evolve, we are expanding our AXIS OS Security area with a new Engineering Manager position focused on software security compliance and strategic execution.
What will you do?
You will lead a team of 10–15 skilled engineers responsible for developing and maintaining security capabilities within AXIS OS. Your primary focus will be driving software security compliance initiatives while contributing to the broader cybersecurity strategy across the platform.
This is a newly established team within the cybersecurity area, giving you a unique opportunity to shape both the direction and ways of working around compliance and security requirements.
You will work closely with your Engineering Manager peer within AXIS OS Security, as well as other Engineering Managers in the leadership team, together with AXIS OS architects, Product Management, and engineering leaders across AXIS OS. You will also collaborate with stakeholders across the company to ensure that our security roadmap is executed successfully and aligned with future business and regulatory needs.
Your main tasks will be to:
-

-
Driving software security compliance initiatives and certifications by proactively understanding and translating compliance requirements into engineering execution together with the Product Manager
-
Owning the execution of the cybersecurity roadmap and strategic priorities

Collaborating cross-functionally to deliver secure, scalable, and high-quality solutions
-
Partnering closely with Product Management and architects to shape strategic direction
-
Contributing to the evolution of modern, user-focused ways of working
-
Managing line responsibilities such as recruitment, salary reviews, budgeting, and employee development
Who are you?
You are a confident and inspiring leader with a strong technical foundation and a genuine interest in cybersecurity. You know how to create engagement, build trust, and help teams succeed in complex environments. You combine strategic thinking with operational execution and are comfortable navigating both technology discussions and organizational challenges. Most importantly, you enjoy enabling people to grow while driving meaningful impact.
In addition to the above you have/are:
