Mauritius Jobs (NOW HIRING)

DealX is a technology and data company that builds Software-as-a-Service products for the financial market (Securitization), with customers primarily in the US.

We're a people-first product company that believes in building empowered & autonomous product teams to deliver on our Product Vision & Strategy, with a strong culture of collaboration over and above our core values of Curiosity, Can-do, Accountability, Simplicity, Communication and Wellbeing.

Our offices are primarily in Mauritius & South Africa, although we do have team members in the US, UK and New Zealand as well.
Whilst we started in 2006 as a single company, in 2021 we separated the Consulting (StructureIt) part of the business from the Product (DealX) part of the business. Our shared services group "Enablement" remains employed by StructureIt and provides services to both businesses.

In 2021, Morningstar Credit invested in DealX as part of the reorganisation, and in 2023, we launched a collaborative new product. The platform is powered by DealX Tech & Data and marketed as Morningstar Credit Analytics, a well-known and trusted brand in the US market. We are proud to say that as of March 2025, DealX is wholly owned by Morningstar Credit, with the data exclusively provided by our Mauritius team, and we have tremendous ambition to bring deeper and wider value to the market through additional tech and data products.
We're looking for dynamic Junior Data Analysts to join our mission!
