About The Company
Every essential dental appliance, from a routine night guard to a complex crown, relies on the precise work of a dental laboratory. But a deepening shortage of skilled dental technicians is creating a bottleneck that limits how much labs can produce and how fast.
Relu, founded in Leuven in 2019, attacks that bottleneck directly. Its Relu® Automate platform uses AI to analyze 3D scans and automatically generate patient-specific designs, such as night guards, surgical guides, and crowns, thereby eliminating the manual CAD steps that slow technicians down. Labs process more cases faster, without compromising quality.
The results speak for themselves: Relu now automates designs for more than 80,000 patients each month across 82 countries. The platform is grounded in 33 peer-reviewed publications and carries ISO 13485 certification, FDA 510(k) clearance, and CE marking.
About the Role
Your mission
Are you passionate about technology with a purpose? Want to make a meaningful impact on people's health? At Relu, we're growing - and we're looking for someone like you.We're looking for a Cybersecurity Engineer to own our Platform / Software security. You will:
- Build our ISMS from the ground up — scope, risk assessment, Statement of Applicability, and core policies — and lead us through ISO 27001 Stage 1 audit
- Get Vanta green across every system, with a live Trust Center that takes manual security questionnaires off sales' plate for good
- Run a penetration test and close every critical and high finding before it becomes someone else's problem
- Stand up vulnerability management across code, dependencies, containers, and Terraform — with a triaged backlog and fix deadlines that actually get met
- Harden our AWS and Kubernetes baseline with least-privilege access, network segmentation, and threat-detection piped straight to on-call
- Write and tabletop-test our incident response playbook, GDPR 72-hour breach notification included, and align it with our MDR technical documentation so we run one evidence set — not two
Your profile
What you should bring to the team:- 2–5 years of hands-on cybersecurity engineering experience, including vulnerability assessment, threat modeling, and incident response
- Solid command of AWS security — IAM policies, network segmentation, secrets management
- Proficiency with security tooling: SIEM platforms, IDS/IPS, and penetration testing frameworks like Burp Suite or Metasploit
- Experience securing software development pipelines (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning) and working within a DevSecOps culture
- Working knowledge of compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, or GDPR — ideally in a SaaS or healthtech context
- Ability to write and maintain security policies, runbooks, and incident response playbooks that people actually use
The 'Nice-to-haves':
- Experience in a regulated industry — healthcare, medtech, or dental — with exposure to HIPAA or MDR requirements
- Familiarity with zero-trust architecture and modern identity solutions like Auth0
- Hands-on experience with container security (Docker, Kubernetes) and IaC scanning tools like Checkov
- Relevant certifications: CEH, OSCP, CISSP, or AWS Security Specialty
How you work:
- You take ownership and bring a builder mindset — you're comfortable defining security practices from scratch in a fast-moving environment, not just maintaining what already exists
- You balance thoroughness with pragmatism — you know when to move fast and when the moment calls for slowing down and doing it right
Why us?
- A mission that matters: we're improving dental care and making higher-quality dentistry accessible to everyone, globally
- A fast-growing company where your growth goes hand-in-hand with ours — real impact, real ownership, and skills in the technologies of the future
- A driven and collaborative team
- Fun team culture: after-works, bi-weekly sports, hackathons, retreats
