DevSecOps Engineer

Who we are:

In 2012, we set out to automate the world of market research. Now it’s 2021 and we want to make the world of insights better, to scale expertise and to create the world’s most powerful enterprise research platform.

We knew back then that to have continued success we needed an environment that fosters constant learning and ambitious goals; a place of diverse opinions and experiences, where talented people can do their best work with very little in their way.

To realize our vision, we are constantly in search of people who will bring a different perspective, who will challenge our thinking, create value for our customers and apply themselves passionately to our vision and culture.
