Cyber Security Analyst

About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money.
We're building one of the world's leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK's newest unicorns with a team of just over 600 people
• Among the
  fastest-growing tech
  companies in the UK
• Profitable since
  2017
• Backed by top investors including
  Balderton Capital
  and
  Goldman Sachs
• Loved by customers
  with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on
  Trustpilot
  )

So far, we've rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch:
loans, credit cards and car finance
. We get money into our customers' hands in minutes instead of days.

We're growing fast, and there's a lot more to do: we're going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks
with dated systems and painful processes.

Join us if you want to

1. Take ownership
   across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1
2. Work in small teams of exceptional people,
   who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo
3. Build the best technology in-house
   , using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting
