## About the role

You'll own the runtime behind every agent run: workers, sandboxes, files, skills, authenticated browsers, durable state, retries, recovery, and the API and CLI around the system. You'll work directly with me and a very small engineering team. Our agents touch customer software and real budgets, so "probably worked" is not good enough.

## What they're looking for

- You're a strong full-stack engineer who likes databases, distributed systems, filesystems, and browsers
- You move quickly but care deeply about correctness
- You want broad ownership at an early-stage company
