We're developing real-time, in-band guardrails that make it safe to move from human-driven workflows to fully autonomous, AI-powered systems. The goal: enable builders and security teams to operate with visibility, control, and trust as agents transition from experimentation to production.
We're a small, distributed team of repeat founders and builders who've worked across leading developer, infrastructure, and security platforms. Joining us now means helping shape not just the product, but the company itself.
Who We're Hiring
We're expanding our engineering team and hiring Front End, Backend Engineers and Full Stack Engineers who want to help build the secure foundation for the agent-native future.
You'll work across distributed systems, developer platforms, and AI-driven architectures to create the primitives that power trusted agentic applications.
What You'll Do
Design, build, and scale backend systems and APIs that serve as the backbone for AI-driven workflows.
Contribute to core platform components that enable real-time identity, access, and control.
Collaborate with product, design, and AI research teams to shape new developer-facing capabilities.
Implement secure, reliable systems for high-scale environments.
Help define engineering culture and best practices as an early technical leader.
What We're Looking For
4+ years of experience in front-end, backend or full-stack engineering (or equivalent impact).
Proficiency in languages such as React, Go, Python, or TypeScript.
Strong understanding of distributed systems, APIs, and cloud architecture.
Experience with modern frameworks and developer tooling (React, Next.js, GraphQL, etc.).
Deep interest in AI infrastructure, agent systems, or security.
Curiosity, craftsmanship, and a bias for ownership-you thrive in dynamic environments.
Why Join Us
Impact: Shape the technical foundation of a company building core infrastructure for the AI-native world.
Growth: Join at a pivotal Series B stage-backed, scaling, and shipping fast.
Autonomy: Build across a modern stack with full ownership of your systems.
Team: Work alongside deeply technical peers who care about quality, trust, and developer experience.
Purpose: Help unlock the agent economy by making it safe and scalable for the world to adopt.

After two years of fast iteration and customer growth, the product has evolved into a set of independently built services. They now need a senior IC who can bring coherence, scalability, and long-term architectural stability as the engineering team expands.
This is a high-impact individual contributor role working directly with the CTO. You'll set technical direction, oversee major system redesigns, and help prepare the platform to support significantly larger usage, customer demands, and a future 20-40+ engineer organisation.
What You'll Be Doing
Lead architectural transformation
Redesign major components into a unified, maintainable, scalable system.
Remove legacy code, reduce fragmentation, and introduce sound architectural patterns.
Define technical standards and guide the broader engineering team towards consistent, high-quality design.
Drive high-leverage engineering work
Partner closely with the CTO on long-term technical strategy.
Lead development of workflow systems for real-time identity, income, and document verification.
Strengthen the infrastructure that powers the company's automated decisioning engine (currently >70% auto-approval/denial rate).
Support integrations with internal ML models that perform fraud detection and financial document understanding.
Influence and elevate the engineering culture
Collaborate with senior and junior engineers across backend, full-stack and infra.
Improve developer velocity and support onboarding of larger enterprise customers.
Help the company scale from an early-stage engineering organisation to a mature, high-performance team.
What They're Looking For
7-8+ years' experience as a strong backend or full-stack IC.
Proven ability to re-architect complex systems and scale codebases beyond the “early startup” phase.
Experience in a fast-growing startup (Seed → A → B or similar) where the engineering org expanded meaningfully.
Depth in modern backend or full-stack development (ideal: TypeScript, React, Node.js, Python).
Someone who thrives in ambiguity, makes pragmatic technical decisions, and moves quickly.
A high engineering bar and the ability to raise the standards of those around you.
Tech Environment
Frontend: TypeScript, React
Backend: Node.js, Python
Data: Postgres, BigQuery, Redis
Cloud: GCP
Hybrid working model; candidates must be based in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco Bay Area. (Hybrid flexibility available for senior candidates.)

You're fluent in React, Node.js, and Python, and comfortable designing APIs, services, and data flows end-to-end.
You've shipped large production systems, ideally ones that touch ML, data, or search.
You have experience with AWS databases, and you enjoy thinking about indexing, search, and vector data systems.
You're pragmatic, product-minded, and enjoy owning features from concept to deployment.
You collaborate naturally with AI, design, and data teams, and love turning complexity into clarity.
Bonus points if:
You've worked with large-scale data processing pipelines.
