About the role

As a Frontend Software Engineer at Transcend, you will help us build and maintain the core Transcend application, as well as contribute to new products and initiatives, such as:

We help companies process data requests from their customers by directly integrating with 3rd party systems through a proxy application called Sombra, which encrypts the data end-to-end.

• Assessments: A tool to allow companies to systematically identify, analyze, and minimize the data protection risks of a specific vendor, data system, project, or plan.

What you'll do
