Join Proton and build a better internet where privacy is the default

At Proton, we believe that privacy is a fundamental human right and the cornerstone of democracy. Since our inception in 2014, founded by a team of scientists from CERN, we have dedicated ourselves to providing free and open-source technology to millions worldwide, ensuring access to privacy, security, and freedom online.

Our journey began with Proton Mail, the largest secure email service globally, and has since expanded to include Proton VPN, Proton Calendar, Proton Drive, and Proton Pass. These tools empower individuals and organizations to take control of their personal data, break away from Big Tech’s invasive practices, and defeat censorship. Our work impacts hundreds of millions of lives, from activists on the front lines defending freedom to leaders in governments protecting sensitive information. In some cases, Proton’s services have even been instrumental in saving lives by enabling secure and private communications in high-risk situations.

Proton is a profitable company that does not rely upon VC funding, supporting over 100 million user accounts with a growing team of over 500 people from over 50 different countries, from the world's top companies and universities. We value intelligence, learning potential, and ambition in our hiring process. Adaptability is key as we navigate uncharted territories and redefine how business is conducted online.

Hiring at Proton is highly selective, with less than 1% of candidates hired. We believe smaller teams of exceptional talent will always prevail over larger teams with lower talent density. You will have the opportunity work with many of the world's top minds in their fields, ranging from former international math and science olympiad winners to chess champions.

We have a global mindset and big ambitions but remain a start-up at heart. We value empowerment and flexibility and keep our structure flat to keep moving fast and avoid unnecessary politics.

We are a cross-functional team of (ballpark figure) 60 engineers, product managers, designers and data analysts. We are committed to constantly push the boundaries of what we can achieve. It’s not always an easy journey, but it’s one that offers the chance to create meaningful impact and drive lasting change.

The Inbox Desktop team is responsible for developing desktop clients of Inbox i.e. Proton Mail Desktop App, Proton Mail Bridge, and the Export tool.

URBANFLOODS: Зајакнување на отпорноста на поплави низ Јадранско-јонскиот регион

URBANFLOODS Logo

URBANFLOODS  има за цел да ја подигне јавната свест, да препорача насоки за спречување поплави и да обезбеди стратешки акциски планови на краток, среден и долг рок. Проектот е дизајниран да им користи на локалните власти, заедниците, креаторите на политики и јавноста кои во иднина треба да имаат во предвид овие препораки за градење на градови поотпорни на поплави за иднината.

Инфо за проектот

  • Име на проектот: URBANFLOODS: Зајакнување на отпорноста на поплави низ Јадранско-јонскиот регион
  • Извор на финансирање: Interreg IPA-Adrion
  • Период на имплементација: 2024 - 2027
  • Вкупен буџет: 1.747.583,17 € (80% придонес од ЕУ - 85% придонес од ИПА фонд)
  • Веб-страница: https://urbanfloods.interreg-ipa-adrion.eu/

Опис на проектот

Јадранско-јонскиот регион, со своите уникатни географски и климатски услови, е сè поподложен на сериозни поплави поради комбинацијата на климатските промени и користењето на земјиштето. Овие настани доведоа до значителни геоморфни промени на речните канали и, историски, предизвикаа значителна штета на животот, имотот, земјоделството и туристичката инфраструктура.

Целта на URBANFLOODS проектот е зајакнување на урбаната отпорност против растечката закана од поплави, особено насочени кон реките и потоците во урбаните средини во Јадранско-јонскиот регион. Со развивање на интегриран систем за поддршка на одлуки според Директивата на ЕУ за поплави и иновативна платформа за комуникација и учење, проектот се стреми да го трансформира управувањето и подготвеноста за поплави.

Специфични цели на проектот

  • Заеднички развој на интегриран систем за поддршка на одлуки (СПО): Вклучува создавање на напреден СПО базиран на податоци кој нуди сеопфатни решенија за управување со поплави и системи за рано предупредување.
  • Зајакнување на механизмите за природна и цивилна заштита: Фокус на подобрување на постоечките стратегии за природна и цивилна заштита и воведување нови мерки за понатамошна заштита на Јадранско-јонскиот регион од ризици од поплави.
  • Анализа на воспоставени протоколи за ефективни практики, транснационални стратегии и акциски планови: Процес кој вклучува идентификација, документирање и усвојување на успешни стратегии за управување со поплави и акциони планови, кои можат да послужат како референца за другите региони кои се соочуваат со слични проблеми.
  • Едукација на локалните заедници: Се стреми да го подобри разбирањето на ризиците од поплави меѓу локалните заедници преку охрабрување на културата на „подготвеност“ и промовирање на проактивни мерки за ублажување на потенцијалните влијанија.

Главни очекувани резултати

  • Еден унифициран СПО: Единствен, интегриран СПО ќе го подобри капацитетот на локалните власти да ги намалат ризиците од урбани поплави и да ја зголемат урбаната отпорност преку нудење софистицирани решенија за управување со поплави базирани на податоци. Овој унифициран СПО ќе биде потврден и демонстриран на девет различни пилот локации.
  • Заедничка транснационална стратегија: Ќе се воспостави сеопфатна транснационална стратегија за постигнување ефикасно и ефективно управување со поплавите. Оваа стратегија ќе обезбеди заедничка визија, цели, задачи, политики, акции и мерки, сите засновани на релевантни податоци.
  • Три акциони планови: Ќе се развијат три акциони планови за преточување на транснационалната стратегија во конкретни чекори. Овие планови имаат за цел да го зголемат знаењето и да помогнат во донесувањето одлуки на три категории на клучни институции: (1) локални/регионални власти, (2) органи за цивилна заштита, и (3) национални власти.
  • Меморандум за соработка: Формален договор меѓу партнерите за продолжување на соработката по завршувањето на проектот. Овој меморандум ќе промовира размена на знаења и трансфер на најдобри практики меѓу партнерите и релевантните засегнати страни, зголемувајќи ја видливоста на резултатите од проектот за да се поддржат идните синергии и да се подигне свеста и подготвеноста на пошироката јавност, со што ќе се максимизира потенцијалното влијание на проектот.
