At Staffbase, security is at the heart of everything we build. Our Application Security and Privacy team helps keep our products and customer data safe while empowering engineering teams across the company. We believe the best security work happens when people bring their authentic selves and diverse perspectives to the table—and we’re proud of the unique mix of talents and backgrounds in our team.

As an enablement team, we provide tools, guidance, and insights that allow developers to integrate security early in the development process. We see security not as a blocker but as a trusted partner that enables better products. With us, you’ll get hands-on experience with modern security practices, mentorship from experienced engineers, and the chance to make a visible impact in a global SaaS environment.

We work together with curiosity, humility, and a growth mindset—supporting each other, taking ownership of our contributions, and celebrating progress along the way. Here, your ideas matter, your work will shape how we build secure products, and you’ll have space to grow into new challenges.
