We are a bunch of humans who are truly passionate about working in privacy.
Some of us were initially drawn through its tech or business aspects; others by its strong ties to human rights and the law. Through PrivacyTeam we get to continue our professional and personal growth, and take a leading role in defining what privacy compliance means in practice.
We get to form meaningful relationships with each other and with our clients, each with their own crazy cool personality and alien-grade skills and ideas. We also get to positively impact and protect the privacy of hundreds of millions around the world, all from our cozy little office in central Tel Aviv.
We finally get to become the privacy heroes our dogs think we are.
We are constantly looking for brilliant, multi-talented and fun individuals to join our team. If you share our passions and believe you will be a good fit - please let us know (and check out our careers page!)
