Description

At Wheely, we're a luxury brand on the outside, but a technology company on the inside, building the world's first Luxury-as-a-Service. We believe that time is the ultimate luxury and that modern engineering and design, combined with the industry’s highest standards of service, can unlock an unparalleled experience for our customers. From on-demand chauffeuring, concierge service, to our best-in-class app, we exist to help our clients reclaim their time by connecting them to the places and people that matter.

More than 40% of our team works in product & engineering, and both Wheely founders are technical. We are also unapologetically design centric. It’s not about A/B testing one hundred shades of blue, but crafting the perfect shade. We also take a privacy-first approach and believe that where people travel, and who they travel with, is at their discretion. 

We have refused government requests to hand over journey data, and are currently developing bespoke technology to put our clients’ movements beyond even our own reach.

Backed by leading global investors, Wheely is poised for the next phase of our journey. Over the next 5-10 years, we plan to offer a full portfolio of luxury services and expand into more international cities, building on our success in London, Paris, and Dubai.

We at Privacy Squad protect our customer’s data by any means necessary. We redesign and shape our system using modern approaches so that sensitive data is secure from the moment it originates. Daily, we think about what data we store, who can access it, whether access is justified.

Security is part of our long-term goals. That’s why we constantly improve our tools for detecting anomalies, fighting bots, and designing our systems so that the communications of our apps and services are protected from adversaries.

We use a product approach and data to ensure the customer experience doesn’t suffer during the process.

What you will be doing

  • Design and implement features to improve the security of our systems and protect customer’s privacy
  • Develop tools for monitoring and filtering malicious requests
  • Make changes to architecture that ensure sensitive data is well protected and access to it restricted and monitored
  • Foster a culture of writing secure code by helping and educating engineers outside of the Privacy squad

  • Proficiency with Go programming language

  • Basic knowledge of encryption and cryptography is a plus
