Newsletter: We’re hiring a Director of Technology, supporting memory safety, and kicking off conference season
Email on 14 September: We’re hiring a Director of Technology, supporting memory safety, and kicking off conference season There’s a new position open in our leadership team: we’re looking for a Director of Technology to shape and develop the technology strategy of the Sovereign Tech Agency. Together with the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), we’re endorsing a statement that calls for more support for the large-scale adoption of memory-safe technology, a crucial part of cybersecurity that’s often overlooked. You will lead a team of technologists and research-focused colleagues, and work as part of our management team to ensure that our mission remains grounded in technical understanding and our work strengthens the most critical open infrastructure that digital sovereignty depends upon. In an increasingly digital world, software bugs are no longer merely technical issues, they can be security challenges of strategic significance. In Europe, ensuring that software is memory safe is crucial for building open digital infrastructure, protecting sensitive data, supporting economic stability, and fostering innovation. That’s why we are, together with the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI), endorsing the statement "Improving Europe's cybersecurity posture through memory safety," which calls for more support for the large-scale adoption of memory-safe technology.
