This is another proof, after the FIC start-up of the year award, that GitGuardian is an innovative fast-growing company leading the way in Cybersecurity. This award gives the company more visibility and is a differentiator for the employer’s brand.

Further to the Series B fundraising, recruitment is strategic. The team will be strengthened in France through the recruitment of a large number of profiles, particularly technical. The R&D is located in Paris and the team of more than 30 people will double in 2022 by integrating many developers but also QA engineers and engineering managers for the development teams. An office will be opened in Austin, in the US, and sales and marketing profiles will be hired there.
