👀 Security at Ageras

As a FinTech, we have a very strong security vision to protect both our clients as our own infrastructure and employees. We are looking for new Security Engineers to help us improving our security standards. You’ll work mainly on technical topics (software, Cloud and endpoint security) but also we expect you to be able to work on organisational ones if necessary (risk assessments, compliance, project management).

In terms of organisation, the Security team is widely cross-functional, partnering with all the other teams, including Engineering (Platform, Data and Feature squads) to improve our product security, but also Internal IT, Operations and Customer Experience, as well as Compliance, Legal, People & Office Management, not forgetting the Finance & Growth teams.
