Deputy CISO at Esh. We’ll keep it in your applied jobs, so you can see it later and be warned before applying to the same employer twice.

About us

At esh, we’re not just building another bank, we’re transforming banking in Israel from the ground up with a tech-first approach.

Job Description

We are looking for a highly skilled, technical, and multidisciplinary Deputy CISO to join our Bank's Information Security team. Reporting directly to the CISO, this key position serves as a right-hand lead in shaping technological strategy, managing risk, and implementing security policy. The role operates as a Senior Individual Contributor (IC) requiring high independence and real-world hands-on capabilities, and a strong 'all hands on deck' mindset.

Responsibilities

  • Strategic & Tech Partnership: Collaborate with the CISO and CIO to design security architecture, implement advanced solutions, and lead end-to-end tech projects.
  • Cloud Security & DevSecOps: Guide development teams, define secure cloud architectures, and enforce SSDF.
  • Hands-on Execution: Evaluate and deploy security technologies, analyze cyber/infrastructure incidents, and write/review code and scripts.
  • GRC & Banking Compliance: Lead GRC end-to-end, manage external pen-testing vendors, handle third-party/supply chain risk, ensure compliance with Bank of Israel regulations, and support audits.

Requirements

  • 5–10 years of experience in InfoSec and technology as a senior independent function.
  • Strong cloud security expertise (AWS preferred; Azure/GCP accepted).
  • Hands-on development background or deep technical understanding of CI/CD, containers, Microservices, and API Security.
  • Hands-on proficiency at the code, network, and infrastructure levels.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and broad business vision, and strong collaborative abilities.

Advantages

  • Certifications: CISSP, CISM, CISA, CCSP, or AWS/Cloud Security certifications.
  • Experience with financial platforms or core banking systems.
  • Real-time Incident Response (IR) experience.
  • Deep acquaintance with banking GRC and Bank of Israel guidelines.
