About Us

CloudSecure specialise in developing software and cloud infrastructure for customers with critical security and performance needs. Our culture is high-agency, low-bureaucracy and encourages creative thinking.

We are intensely meritocratic – if you add value you will be appropriately remunerated and given increased responsibility. By extension we reward intellectual curiosity; if there's a technology or role you're interested in, we'll help you get there.

We're growing fast but are founder owned so aren't beholden to investor targets, financial hurdles or trend chasing. One of our directors sums CloudSecure up by saying "We build cool stuff, for cool customers." People are the lifeblood of our business so if what we've written resonates, we'd love to hear from you.
