About the role

Own technical value realization for a portfolio of strategic customers, from first live data through durable adoption and expansion. Work directly inside customer tenants and systems to understand their AI workflows, operational constraints, and most consequential problems.

What they're looking for

  • At least five years of experience building and delivering production software, data systems, security products, or technically complex enterprise solutions
  • Strong hands-on engineering ability across some combination of Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Rust, APIs, backend systems, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure
  • Ability to independently explore unfamiliar, high-volume datasets and find meaningful signals inside noisy operational data
  • Experience working directly with demanding enterprise customers and operating credibly with both hands-on engineers and senior executives
  • The ability to decompose vague, high-level problems into a sequence of technical decisions and shipped artifacts
  • High agency. You naturally explore the environment, form a point of view, and act before being given a detailed task list

Origin is building the endpoint AI observability platform for AI-adopting organizations. We believe that organizations should not adopt AI on their endpoints without observability in place, and we want to be the platform that maximizes the productivity & safety of that adoption.

The company exists to maximize the diffusion of intelligence inside an organization, maximize the productivity of agentic systems and the humans driving them, keep agent actions traceable end-to-end so that when a user asks for something in a prompt they can verify the agent actually did what was expected, and give organizations one interface to answer the hardest questions they have about how work gets done.

Our platform monitors and protects some of the most important organizations in the world. We are backed by Sequoia Capital, Brightmind Ventures, IA Ventures and other top firms.
