The posting

You'll own the platform our agents run on — event-driven architecture, data pipelines, integrations with customer accounting systems, and the infrastructure that makes everything reliable, auditable, and fast.

What you'll do

- Event store — Append-only PostgreSQL with tamper-evident hash chaining, real-time event distribution, agent replay and recovery, schema versioning.

- Cryptographic signature infrastructure — Key management, signature verification on all agent events, approval chains for external actions.

- Workflow Constraint Engine — The gateway that verifies authorization before any external action (email, payment, API call) proceeds.

- PII Vault & GDPR compliance — Isolated, encrypted storage for personal data. Right to erasure. Data residency per region.

- Multi-tenancy — Row-level security, tenant isolation across all data stores, tenant-scoped LLM API keys.

- Authorization (Cerbos) — Attribute-based access control for agents and humans. Deterministic policy evaluation — LLMs never make auth decisions.

- MCP security layer — Authentication, capability-based scoping per partner, and rate limiting for the Model Context Protocol endpoint.

- Database architecture — PostgreSQL schema design, indexing strategy, performance tuning, read replica topology.

What we're looking for

- 3+ years experience with Python and/or TypeScript in production.

- 5+ years designing backend platforms for production systems.

- Strong systems design skills — this is the primary requirement. You think in boundaries, contracts, failure modes, and scaling characteristics.

- Deep PostgreSQL knowledge — RLS, indexing tradeoffs, event sourcing patterns, schema evolution.

- Strong application security architecture skills: encryption models, key management, auth patterns.

- Experience with policy-as-code authorization (Cerbos, OPA, Cedar, or similar).

- Strong code review skills for security-sensitive AI-generated code.

  • Nice to have:
  • Cryptographic primitives in production (digital signatures, hash chaining, application-layer encryption).
  • Event streaming platforms (Kurrent, Redpanda, Kafka).
  • SOC 2 or GDPR compliance engineering.
  • Fintech or regulated-environment background.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
