IT Cloud Security Specialist

Introduction

ASML US, including its affiliates and subsidiaries, bring together the most creative minds in science and technology to develop lithography machines that are key to producing faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient microchips. We design, develop, integrate, market, and service these advanced machines, which enable our customers - the world’s leading chipmakers - to reduce the size and increase the functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics. Our headquarters are in Veldhoven, Netherlands, and we have 18 office locations around the United States including main offices in Chandler, Arizona, San Jose and San Diego, California, Wilton, Connecticut, and Hillsboro, Oregon.

Job Mission

This role is part of the Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE). The CCoE is a global Agile Release Train, with presence in the Netherlands, US and East-Europe. The vision is to provide a flexible and reliable cloud platform to enable accelerated and sustainable adoption of cloud across ASML, and maximizing the ability to realize its benefits, while reducing risks. In this role you will work closely together with Products Owners, Cloud & Security Architects and Cloud Engineers to help build secure and robust enterprise-grade cloud platforms.

The CCoE US Team is responsible for cloud onboarding and solutioning to guide other ASML DevOps teams in their onboarding journey to cloud, which includes aspects around architecture, cost management and security. During the cloud onboarding process there are steps that demand a Security Expert to evaluate and approve the design/solution to ensure that all workloads are fully compliant when they move to production.

When workloads are in ‘run’, the CCoE US Team monitors security vulnerabilities and address those to Workload DevOps teams, ensuring that the given recommendations are actionable and get prioritized. Operational requests related to, or with a possible impact on our security posture, are also in scope of this role. There are topics that are extremely relevant for the US region, like export control, Engineering Top Secrets in Cloud and Generative AI in Cloud. These topics demand security expertise from CCoE; we help ensure workload teams are compliant and have all cloud security requirements in place. As these topics are relatively new, a dedicated Security Architect is paramount in the US Region, ensuring we stay ahead of all requirements.

The Cloud Security Specialist will be responsible for the protection of ASML’s information, Intellectual Property (IP) and assets, and that of ASML’s customers and suppliers developed and used within ASML’s Public cloud (IaaS, PaaS), through the set-up and/or alignment of ASML Information Security strategies and security standards/ guidelines while interfacing with the Business, and enforcing system, application and access security controls within the cloud.
