Outtake is Next-Generation Digital Risk Protection. Agentic search across your full surface, workflows you control, intelligence that compounds with every takedown. Backed by CRV and ICONIQ.
About the role
This is a staff-level infrastructure generalist role. You will set the technical direction of Outtake’s infrastructure and build the systems that support our next orders of magnitude of growth. The role begins as an individual contributor position; experience growing and leading infrastructure teams will be valuable as the function scales.
What they're looking for
- Experience operating at staff scope: identifying important technical problems, setting direction across team boundaries, and leading complex projects from design through adoption
- A track record of designing and building distributed infrastructure systems used by other engineers or products
- Experience scaling production systems through significant increases in data volume, traffic, or workload complexity
- Deep knowledge of relational database architecture, including data modeling, access patterns, indexing, partitioning, sharding, caching, and migration
- Experience building or evolving high-throughput asynchronous systems, with a strong understanding of scheduling, ordering, retries, idempotency, backpressure, and partial failure
- Experience with large-scale search and retrieval systems, including the tradeoffs among lexical search, vector retrieval, indexing speed, freshness, relevance, and cost
More about this role
Outtake exists to empower and facilitate trust for a digital-first world. Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks.
Built by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team.
Outtake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers.
