Prometeia, founded in 1974, builds risk management, wealth management, and performance consulting software for the financial sector. Its platform manages over €2.5 trillion in assets across millions of private portfolios, serving more than 500 financial institutions in 30+ countries. The technical stack runs on advanced analytics, financial modeling, and cloud-native infrastructure, with AI and machine learning integrated into core product domains.
The threat model here is financial: the systems handle high-value transaction data, sensitive client portfolios, and regulatory-critical risk calculations at massive scale. Security work spans protecting cloud-native platforms that process institutional-grade financial data, securing AI/ML pipelines that drive modeling decisions, and hardening infrastructure across a distributed footprint that includes Bologna, London, Zürich, Vienna, Istanbul, and Cairo. The attack surface is broad - data integrity failures or access control lapses at this scale carry systemic consequences.
Engineers operate across multiple technical domains simultaneously. The stack is not monolithic; it supports wealth management platforms, risk analytics engines, and performance consulting tools that need to stay reliable under continuous institutional use. The company has been in this market for five decades, which means legacy integration challenges sit alongside modern cloud-native architecture decisions.
