- The stack The architecture has two layers working in tandem: an edge-native control plane handling real-time state, data, and API, and isolated secure VMs where agents actually execute, each with a full filesystem, persistent databases, and browser access.
Responsibilities
- the agent systems themselves (how sessions run, how agents communicate, how the VM environment executes work) and the AI practices that govern how we build everything else, including agents-in-the-loop for our own development, evals, and reliability at scale.
- You'll build the systems that make them trustworthy enough to do real work autonomously: human-in-the-loop checkpoints, tiered approval flows, and structured output validation that catches failures before they reach users.
- Each organisation runs its own isolated VM with a full computer, filesystem, and browser.
- Seed (CAD $6M raised) · 7 people What we're building Small businesses are the engine of every economy.

- OpenClaw showed what's possible when an agent gets a full computer and persistent memory.
- Security is in the architecture from day one.
Compensation
