Application Security Architect (f/m/x)

Who's behind Deel?

We're a global team that loves to build and solve problems, especially when it comes to the world of remote work. Made up of self-driven people spanning 50+ countries, Deel's unified yet diverse culture keeps us continually learning and improving.

Companies should be able to hire the best talent anywhere in the world, so we're building the tools to make that a reality. Our market-leading tech, expertise, and, most importantly, the team are crucial. As a whole, we find fulfillment in working together towards our shared mission.

So, why now?

A significant shift has occurred within today's workforce, and with it, business as we know it has drastically changed. At Deel, we see a world without hiring borders, but we needed to find a solution to make it happen. A 30-mile hiring radius should no longer limit how companies hire because great talent lives everywhere. Deel exists to stay on top (and ahead) of the accelerating global talent market by offering global teams all the tools needed to hire, manage, pay, and scale at rocket speed.

And speaking of scale, Deel has officially raised $425 million in Series D funding, bringing our valuation to $5.5 billion. There's never been a more exciting time to join Deel - the market leader in international payroll and compliance.
