Equinitech will be home to new software development and engineering teams responsible for delivering a portfolio of innovations from identity verification and compliant data management platforms to state-of-the-art solutions that protect businesses and their customers from a host of emerging cyber security threats.

The exciting technologies under development include:

Biometric authentication

Stuart Robb, CEO for Equiniti Data commented “This represents a long-term commitment to establishing and developing a cutting-edge software development hub in the heart of the South West.”
“Equiniti offer easily adopted solutions to support our clients in the face of the ever-changing data and security landscapes facing businesses today.”

With the location and strategy in place, Equiniti is now hiring software engineers and cyber specialists with skills in a wide range of disciplines to contribute to this success story in a strengthening local digital economy.

Exeter is fast becoming a destination of choice for technology and digitally-focused companies, areas which are growing consistently despite wider economic uncertainty. The products under development are ground-breaking in their area and represent a new direction for UK homegrown cyber-sophistication and data technologies.
