About Qalea

We are Qalea, a fast-growing, early-stage cybersecurity startup on a mission to make digital security intuitive and accessible for every business. We've built a platform that puts simplicity, usability, and real impact at the core of cybersecurity. We've raised 1.5M€ and are backed by top-tier investors, from cybersecurity unicorn founders to leading VC firms. We're also proud to be part of the Google for Startups AI-Cybersecurity program, working alongside some of the brightest minds in product and security. We move fast, stay curious, and care deeply about what we're building. What matters to us is making an impact and building together, while enjoying the ride.

The Mission

You'll combine technical expertise with strong relationship skills to drive onboarding, adoption, and long-term impact. This is a role with real ownership and visible impact from day one.
