Our values are rooted in responsibility, readiness, and long term thinking. We believe sovereignty must be designed into systems from the start.

Position

Role Overview

The IT Manager owns LUXUAVs IT and information-security operations end-to-end. This starts

as a standalone, deeply hands-on role: you personally build and run the corporate and lab IT

environment - network, endpoints, identity and user support - and put in place the security

controls a defence-grade UAV company needs. You do the work yourself today and help scale

the function, including a second hire, as the company grows.

Key Responsibilities

IT Support & Governance

- Run day-to-day IT hands-on: user support, onboarding/offboarding, hardware, software

and the productivity stack.

- Manage the IT budget, licensing, suppliers and the approved-software catalogue.

Infrastructure & Systems

- Install, configure and maintain on-premise servers and infrastructure (compute, storage,

virtualisation, backups) for corporate and lab needs, with hardening and secure remote

management.

- Build and operate the corporate and lab networks: segmentation, firewalls, Wi-Fi and

secure remote access (VPN or zero-trust).

- Manage the endpoint fleet, primarily Windows (with the occasional Linux host)

Applications & Platforms

- Lead the migration to and administration of the Microsoft 365 stack (Teams, Exchange

Online, SharePoint/OneDrive, Entra ID, Intune), with secure configuration..

- Administer the source-code and DevOps platform (GitHub Enterprise or Azure DevOps):

access control, repository and pipeline security, secrets management and SSO

integration, in coordination with the engineering teams.

- Administer business applications and line-of-business solutions (CRM/ERP such as

Odoo, and others): user access, configuration, integrations, updates and vendor

management.

Security & Compliance

- Operate identity and access: SSO, MFA and joiner-mover-leaver workflows.

- Put in place and maintain practical security policies and controls, working towards an

ISMS aligned to ISO/IEC 27001.

- Run vulnerability and patch management with clear priorities and remediation.

- Lead incident response: detect, contain, resolve and learn.

- Support compliance with applicable EU rules (GDPR, NIS2) and customer security

requirements; handle security questionnaires and audits.

Experience & Skills

- Degree in computer science, IT, information security, or equivalent hands-on

experience.

- 9+ years in hands-on IT and/or information security, ideally as a generalist covering

both.

- Practical experience across network security, endpoint management

(MDM/EDR/encryption) and identity (SSO/MFA).

- Experience setting up or operating security controls or an ISMS (ISO/IEC 27001 an

advantage).

- Comfortable as the only IT person: self-directed, pragmatic and genuinely hands-on.

- Clear communicator, patient with non-technical users.

- Fluent in English and French.

- Assets: a recognised certification (e.g. CISSP, CISM, ISO 27001, ITIL); experience in

defence, aerospace or critical-infrastructure environments; familiarity with Luxembourg's

regulatory landscape (CNPD, ILR, national CERTs) and NIS2.

Our Values

What guides our decisions?

Our values are rooted in responsibility, readiness, and long term thinking. We believe sovereignty must be designed into systems from the start. Readiness is achieved through capability, not procurement. Autonomy is infrastructure, not a feature. We build with the understanding that modern systems carry long term consequences. That is why we prioritise reliability over novelty, integration over isolation, and sustained capability over short term advantage.

[01]

Design with scale in mind.

We develop systems as part of an ecosystem that is intended to grow.
Scale is not an afterthought, but a design principle that shapes architecture, integration, and evolution.

[02]

Build a solid foundation.

We prioritise core architecture, interoperability, and long term resilience.
A strong foundation enables systems to adapt without fragmentation.

[03]

Practice over theory.

We value learning through application.
Systems are shaped by real use and continuous refinement, not by abstract assumptions.

[04]

Commitment beyond delivery.

We take responsibility for what we build over time.
Commitment means supporting systems throughout their lifecycle and ensuring they remain relevant, secure, and under control.

Open Positions

We are hiring talent across multiple roles, contributing to Europe’s readiness and long term capability.

We are building a multidisciplinary team across engineering, systems architecture, operations, and supporting functions. Open roles reflect the needs of a growing secure and autonomous infrastructure company, where integration, reliability, and long term thinking matter. If you do not see a position that matches your profile, we still encourage proactive applications from people aligned with our mission and values.
