Estonian technology company Veriff has announced that it will create over 100 new jobs at its units in Estonia, the UK and the United States by the end of 2021. At the moment, the company is looking for staff in the development, product, verification and support departments.
In April 2021, the start-up has closed its ‘Series B’ funding round by raising €58 million, and it is to develop its services and expand its activities on a global scale, especially in the American market.
A partner of IVP, one of the main investors, told that its company is proud to support Veriff, especially because in 'an increasingly digital world' identification solutions are essential for businesses.
Veriff was founded in 2015. The company is focused on AI-powered identity verification for businesses; it provides authentication services in over 36 languages in 190 countries worldwide. Currently, the company employs 250 employees in offices located in the UK, the United States and Estonia.
