Senior Security Expert

We are looking for a highly proactive and organized Senior Security Expert to join our In-Person-Payments (IPP) Security & Certifications team. Adyen's In-Person Payments platform is one of the most complex payment infrastructures in the world, processing billions of euros annually across tens of thousands of merchant locations globally. The Payment Solution is the engine behind it all, governing the payment processing, certified hardware, and the software that keeps every transaction compliant, secure, and trusted by global payment schemes. The IPP Security & Certifications team is the function that keeps this infrastructure compliant, certified, and trusted by global payment schemes.

This is a high-stakes, high-autonomy role where you will take genuine ownership of the PCI certification portfolio that underpins this infrastructure. Your success will not be measured by writing code or implementing fixes, but rather defined by knowing the landscape better than anyone in the room, aligning the right stakeholders, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. If you treat a compliance deadline as a problem to solve six months in advance, and can walk an engineering team through a PCI requirement and a QSA through an engineering decision with equal confidence — this role was built for you.
