About MirrorWeb

MirrorWeb is an intelligent communications supervision platform built for regulated financial services firms that need to scale supervision safely, defensibly and without operational collapse. 

Compliance teams today are dealing with a permanent shift: channel explosion (mobile, social, collaboration tools), volume that outpaces humans and regulators who didn't lower the bar. The result is simple: teams are drowning in data but starving for signal. 

Most firms get stuck between three flawed options: 

  • Legacy archiving & supervision platforms (manual, queue-based, connector-centric, brittle, slow to adapt) 
  • Point AI compliance tools (narrow, opaque, hard to defend in audits) 
  • DIY + services-heavy approaches (stitched-together systems and spreadsheets that don't scale) 

MirrorWeb was built for this moment: AI-native supervision designed for regulated reality where AI helps prioritize risk and focus human attention, while preserving accountability regulators accept. 

Our mission: help regulated firms communicate freely and confidently, knowing supervision stays scalable, defensible, and auditable as the world changes. 

The Role

  • Optimise Cloud Infrastructure: Leverage AWS services (Lambda, ECS, Aurora) to build cost-effective, scalable solutions

  • Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work with Product, Design, and Customer Success to deliver customer value
