      Evervault (https://evervault.com/) | Haskell Engineers + Head of Product | Dublin, Ireland | ONSITE | €60k - €80k + meaningful equity stake

      Love Haskell? Passionate about data privacy?

      At Evervault, we're working to make data privacy simple. We're building simple developer tools that allow companies to process personal data in a secure environment, so they can forget about data privacy and focus on doing what they do best: building their product.

      This is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a world-class team, helping to fundamentally re-architect how companies handle personal data.

      We're VC-backed by some of the best investors in the business and are now building out our team in Dublin.

      You'll be responsible for building out our core tech infrastructure over the coming months and for driving the design and build processes of our platform and company.

      Even if there isn't a role that seems like a good fit, we're always interested in speaking to interesting people. If you, or anyone you know, would be interested then please don't hesitate to get in touch.

      Evervault (data privacy startup) | Product Engineer | Dublin, Ireland | Full Time | ONSITE

      Passionate about data privacy?
      Backed by Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, SV Angel and other leading investors, at evervault we’re building the internet infrastructure for data privacy. Privacy is no longer something that compliance teams look after alone — it’s becoming a core component of your product.
      We’re building simple developer tools that allow privacy to be integrated in the development stack from day one.

      Evervault | Engineers, Designers, PM | London or Dublin | Fulltime | https://evervault.com

      Plaintext is hazmat. Come design the products that kill it.

      We are a developer security and API company on a mission to encrypt the web. We sit at the intersection of:
      Security - we've invested a tonne of time in cryptographic systems and provable secure compute. Blog post - https://evervault.com/blog/optimizing-our-encryption-engine
      Developer infrastructure - think Cloudflare & AWS
      Payments - think Stripe, Adyen etc.

      We're backed by the some of the biggest VCs and have just closed our Series B, bringing out total funding to over $50m.

      All roles here - https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/evervault - please mention Hackernews in submission!

      This is very helpful — thank you!

      On #2, we have carried out security audits with Cure53[0] and others, which we are happy to share. We also have a root of trust which is provably embedded in the AWS Nitro System[1]

      #1 and #3 are great suggestions which we will implement in our next website revamp. Thanks!
