The Mission: Reclaiming Privacy in a Hyper-Connected World
Most cellular networks treat your location and identity as a commodity. We treat them as a right.
Founded by veterans of Palantir and Anduril, we are a well-funded, early-stage startup ($V+ from Andreessen Horowitz and other top-tier VCs) building a first-of-its-kind, privacy-centric cellular network. We believe privacy isn’t about doing less—it’s about building better features so citizens and national security leaders can do more without compromise.
We are looking for relentless builders to help us architect the future of global wireless from our offices in DC or NYC.
The Role: SRE Infrastructure Software Engineer
You won’t just be maintaining a stack; you’ll be building “greenfield” infrastructure where personal privacy and national security intersect. You will own the full lifecycle of our telecommunications and deployment systems, ensuring they are as resilient as they are secure.
How You’ll Make an Impact:
- Architect Resilience: Build and maintain the instrumentation and monitoring tools that keep our global system performant and available.
- Bridge the Gap: Integrate modern software practices with complex telecommunications infrastructure (4G/5G cores, IMS).
- Own the Standard: Lead technical accreditation (FedRAMP/ATO) and shape what “great” engineering looks like in a high-stakes environment.
- Balance & Build: Pivot between immediate mission-critical needs and the long-term product vision.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience: 4+ years in Software Engineering or SRE roles, specifically designing high-availability systems.
- The Stack: Fluency in Golang, Rust, Java/Kotlin, or Python, with a strong command of AWS (GCP/Azure is a plus).
- The Mindset: A “scrappy” startup soul. You are comfortable with ambiguity and excited to solve hard problems from the ground up.
- The Mission: A genuine passion for privacy and building software with real-world, national-scale implications.
Why Join Us?
- True Ownership: We hire excellent people, give them outsized responsibility, and trust them to execute.
- In-Person Synergy: While we embrace flexibility and WFH days, our culture thrives on the serendipity of being together in DC or NYC.
- Top-Tier Benefits: * 100% covered medical/dental/vision premiums for you and your family.
- 401(k) matching and meaningful early-stage equity.
- 12 weeks paid parental leave + stipends for family-forming and gender-affirming care.
- Unlimited PTO (that our team actually uses).
Statistics & Diversity
We believe diverse teams build more secure products. We actively seek candidates of every race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, and gender identity. For context, research indicates that diverse engineering teams are 35% more likely to outperform their industry peers. We don’t just value diversity; we require it to win.
