Ship quality agents at scale. Braintrust is the AI observability platform for tracing production, running evals, and catching regressions before they reach users. Backed by Greylock, a16z and ICONIQ.
About the role
We’re looking for a Detection and Response engineer to design and build systems that identify, analyze, and eradicate threats across the Braintrust stack. You’ll practice detection-as-code, run security operations with agents, lead incident response, and stay ahead of the curve incorporating real-time threat intelligence. Have a big impact with a small team that has outsized capabilities. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Proficient in modern backend technologies and comfortable writing real code in Python, TypeScript, or Go
- AWS experience (IAM, VPC, KMS, GuardDuty, CloudTrail) and working fluency in at least one of Azure or GCP
- Kubernetes detection experience: audit logs, runtime telemetry, and workload identity
- Knowledge of endpoint security (MacOS) and detection and response techniques
- Hands-on incident experience: you’ve been on call, led incidents, and written postmortems
- Strong written and verbal communication
More about this role
Braintrust is the agent observability platform. By actively applying intelligence to agent traces and automatically surfacing the most critical patterns, Braintrust gives teams the visibility to understand how agents behave in production and the tools to improve them.
Teams at Notion, Stripe, Box, OpenAI, and Cloudflare use Braintrust to trace their agents, find the issues in their observability data, and run evals that tell them how to improve.
