About Themis

Themis is democratizing governance and risk to make it work for companies rather than against them. We are solving the communication gap experienced by most companies that exist between internal departments and external partners by creating simple, intuitive software to monitor and share governance related controls.

What we're looking for

Themis is looking for a talented lead software engineer focused on UI and UX to be part of our team. We are bringing to life our vision of making governance accessible and easy for everyone. 

We are taking workflows typically run on spreadsheets and emails and building beautiful software to make it easier for organizations to adhere to governance requirements and regulations.

We're looking for smart people who are curious, willing to learn, and who can embrace a challenge.
