Description de l’offre

Wave is hiring a Security Analyst
Our Mission
Since 2014, our Sendwave app has allowed Africans in the US, the UK, and Canada to send money instantly to mobile money wallets in Kenya, Uganda, & Tanzania, saving our users over 70% relative to Western Union and MoneyGram.

In 2016, we expanded our scope and began building Wave, a mobile money product for domestic markets in Africa.

The problem: Nearly 60% of adults in sub-Saharan Africa have no bank account. That’s for good reason—the fees are too high, the closest branch can be miles away, and nobody takes cards. Without access to financial institutions, people are forced to keep their savings under the mattress. Small business owners rely on lenders who charge extortionate rates. Parents spend hours waiting in line to pay school fees in cash.
How we’re solving it: We’re building financial services to work as they should: no account fees, instantly available and accepted everywhere. In places where electricity, water and roads don’t always function, we’re creating financial infrastructure that « just works. » In fall 2017, we launched a mobile app in Senegal for cash deposit, withdrawal, and peer-to-peer and business payments. We’ve recently expanded to Cote d’Ivoire and are adding more countries this year. Our goal is to make Africa the first cashless continent. That’s where you come in…
