About the role

  • This is a senior individual contributor role.
  • You'll write a lot of code, make architectural decisions that matter, and work directly with the founding team on the things that are hardest to get right.
  • 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.
  • Tell us what you think is hard about building reliable agent systems and how you'd approach it.

Requirements

  • You follow the field closely enough to have real opinions, you know what works in production versus what demos well, and you try new techniques as soon as they're available.

  • Managing the chaos became its own full-time job.
  • Agents that know your business, work continuously, and reach out via WhatsApp, SMS, iMessage, or voice when something needs a human call.
  • OpenClaw showed what's possible when an agent gets a full computer and persistent memory.
  • Security is in the architecture from day one.

Compensation

  • Annual team retreat - Once a year we take the whole team somewhere and spend a week working on how we work together.

Benefits

  • The founders running them started with a vision for where they wanted to take it.
