Information Security Specialist - Junior+

Location: Worldwide

Department: HQ

We are looking for an Information Security Specialist to join our Security Investigations team.

 

The Security Investigations team is responsible for protecting the business through proactive security monitoring, background verification, and risk investigations. Working at the intersection of information security, risk analysis, and investigations, the team helps ensure the company grows securely by enabling informed decisions based on reliable and verified information.

As an Information Security Specialist, you will conduct end-to-end background checks and security investigations, analyze verification results, identify potential risks, and support incident response when security concerns arise. You’ll collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, maintain strict confidentiality, and contribute to continuously improving investigation processes that strengthen the company’s overall security posture.


Challenges that await you:
  • Conduct comprehensive background verifications of candidates, including employment, academic, credit, and judicial records
  • Coordinate information gathering with external sources: former employers, educational institutions, and verification providers
  • Analyze and evaluate verification reports, identifying discrepancies, red flags, or potential risks
  • Ensure strict confidentiality and secure handling of candidates’ personal data
  • Monitor, detect, and assess security threats to the business
  • Analyze vulnerabilities across the organization and propose mitigation actions
  • Manage security incidents and participate in emergency response activities
  • Implement internal security policies and ensure regulatory compliance
  • Investigate incidents and continuously improve security and verification workflows
  • Prepare detailed investigation reports and communicate findings to recruitment and security decision-makers
  • Provide strategic recommendations based on investigation outcomes
  • Maintain background verification databases and generate periodic trend and risk reports
What makes you a great fit:
  • Critical thinking & problem-solving: you can connect weak signals into a clear risk picture and make reasoned judgments
  • Organization & time management: you handle multiple verifications/investigations in parallel without losing quality or deadlines
  • Accuracy & attention to detail: you notice inconsistencies, document findings precisely, and avoid assumptions
  • Teamwork & collaboration: you work smoothly with recruiters, security peers, legal/compliance, and external partners
  • Adaptability in critical situations: you stay calm under pressure and act effectively during incidents or tight timelines
 
Our ways of working:
  • Innovative Spirit: A commitment to creativity and groundbreaking solutions
  • Honest Feedback: valuing open, transparent communication
  • Supportive Team: a strong, collaborative community
  • Celebrating Achievements: recognizing our wins together
  • High-Tech Environment: a team full of smart and revolutionary people who date to challenge the status quo of incumbent finances
Our benefits:
  • Relocation support to one of our hubs — Cyprus, Serbia, Georgia or Kazakhstan — with assistance for the employee and their family
  • Flexible work from one of our offices or remote
  • Healthcare Coverage
  • Education Budget: Language lessons, professional training and certifications
  • Wellness Budget: Mental health and fitness activity reimbursements
  • Vacation policy: 20 days of annual leave and paid sick leave
