Innovation Engineer / Architect Identity Verification, Enschede NL

This role is offered by Signicat for Inverid, a Signicat company, based in Enschede, the Netherlands.

Inverid is the market leader in NFC-based remote identity verification. Our product ReadID enables companies and governments worldwide to verify identities securely and reduce fraud. Customers include ING, Rabobank, ASB Bank (New Zealand), the UK Home Office, and the Danish Digital Agency.

As an Innovation Engineer / Architect, you’ll help shape new products and prototypes from our roadmap for identity verification. We value curiosity, creativity, and experimentation, and you’ll work closely with a skilled and collaborative team.


What you will do:

• As innovation engineer/architect you are part of our Innovation team, working on new digital identity products and services that go (far) beyond what ReadID offers today.

• For senior persons: you have worked as researcher, (lead) developer or (lead) architect or similar, in an innovative organization.
• You are an expert in some, and a generalist in all of these fields: mobile, SaaS, cryptography, digital identity, machine learning.
• Good command of the English language (both writing and speaking).
