About the role
As the Senior Information Security Officer, you will be the subject matter expert and contact point for security controls within DataSnipper.

About DataSnipper 🚀
Audit and finance are still massively manual and we are changing that. DataSnipper is a $1B, bootstrapped unicorn with 600,000+ users across 180+ countries, already embedded in the daily workflows of top audit and accounting firms.
Now, we are taking things further with our Excel Agent, bringing AI directly into where the work actually happens. Unlike generic AI tools, we do not sit on the sidelines. Our AI operates inside Excel, with access to real documents and audit evidence, meaning it does not just generate answers, it does the work, with full traceability.
We are not just applying AI, we are redefining how audit gets done. If you want to build something category-defining at scale, this is the place.
