Information Security Architect (f/m/x)

HEY THERE!

We are Mercedes-Benz.io. Our mission is to ignite and build the digital solutions for Mercedes-Benz by forming a tribe of digital enthusiasts that drive Mercedes-Benz digital future.

Therefore, we offer you flexibility! You can choose to work from our offices in Lisbon or Braga, or remotely from any location in Portugal.
