OT / ICS Cybersecurity & Product Security Specialist with 15+ years of experience across industrial automation, energy, oil & gas, smart infrastructure and critical infrastructure. Expertise in IEC 62443, NIS2, CRA, ISO 27001, OT risk assessments, secure remote access, network segmentation, vulnerability management, incident response, product security, embedded security and industrial control systems. Experienced with SCADA, RTU, PLC, DCS, BMS and industrial communication protocols including Modbus TCP, IEC 60870-5-104, DNP3, BACnet, KNX and MQTT. Strong experience with Siemens, ABB, Emerson and GE industrial platforms, cybersecurity governance, supplier risk management, security architecture, and compliance programs across Europe.
I would also add a second paragraph with searchable keywords, because freelancermap recruiters often search by exact terms:
Key skills: OT Security, ICS Security, Cybersecurity, Product Security, IEC 62443, NIS2, CRA, ISO 27001, GRC, SCADA Security, RTU Security, PLC Security, DCS Security, BMS Security, Secure Remote Access, PAM, IAM, Network Segmentation, Zero Trust, Vulnerability Management, Incident Response, Risk Assessment, Security Architecture, Embedded Security, Industrial IoT, Critical Infrastructure, Energy, Utilities, Manufacturing.
That will likely perform better than a generic narrative alone because it gives the platform more exact search terms to match against recruiter queries.
