Keepsafe is a six-year old, profitable, post-series A startup with over 75 million users globally on iOS and Android. Our founders are serial entrepreneurs from Germany who appreciate ambitious and independent thinking, precision, beautiful code, and above all else privacy! 

As identities become increasingly virtual, there’s a growing, urgent need for privacy. Keepsafe has a far-reaching vision for safeguarding people’s privacy today and tomorrow. Our flagship photo vault reflects our belief that protecting personal pictures, videos, and important documents on your phone should be simple and foolproof. This year, we’ll develop and launch multiple new products allowing people to save and share their data without sacrificing control.

Keepsafe’s mission is to make privacy and security simple. We believe that everyone should have the same control of privacy in their digital life as they do in their physical life. We’re working on a family of products to make it easy for people to protect their personal space. With over 75 million users on our existing products—we’re just getting started.  

Our engineering team is at the forefront of security, smart encryption, key management, data transcoding, secure and fast cloud sync, and back-end custom analytics development for the future. By working at Keepsafe, you can expect to collaborate directly with our product and design teams and work with your peers to make impactful decisions about how things get done.
