Innovation Engineer/Architect Identity Verification

Inverid is the market leader in NFC-based remote identity verification. Companies and governments worldwide use our product ReadID, software that verifies identities remotely and reduces identity fraud. Our customers include banks such as ING, Rabobank, and ASB Bank (New Zealand), government agencies such as the UK Home Office and the Danish Digital Agency.

As our innovation engineer/architect you will contribute to creating innovative new products and prototypes we envision in our roadmap for identity verification. We love individuals with fresh new ideas that are well-founded, who are not shy of experiments, and will work closely with the rest of the team. Depending on your seniority as a research engineer, you report to the Head of Product or to a team member in the Innovation team.
