About Us
At Tessian (formerly CheckRecipient), we have the ambitious goal of protecting enterprise networks against new and intelligent cyber threats, making it impossible for sensitive information to end up in the wrong hands.
Through advanced machine learning and natural language processing (NLP), Tessian prevents breaches in real-time, outsmarting traditional rule-based, admin-intensive approaches which can only report a breach after it has occurred.
Founded by a team of Imperial College engineers, we’re backed by some of the world’s leading technology investors. We work with international clients in the financial, legal and professional services sectors who trust us to find the most intelligent ways to keep their data secure.
We’ve recently closed a Series B fundraising round of $42m led by Sequoia and we are looking to work with the brightest minds to help us accomplish our goal and help us defend our clients against the biggest cybersecurity problems.
In the Engineering Team we...
- build quickly and follow both agile and continuous delivery paradigms
- design reliable distributed systems that handle high volumes of data with low latency
- maintain and support business-critical systems
- ship code to production every day using CI/CD techniques
- tackle the challenges that come with processing highly sensitive data
- value security over box-ticking
