About Sail Research

Sail is the most cost-efficient API for the best open-source models. Pay per token with unbeatable prices, cut costs even further with completion windows, and start with $5 in monthly free credits. Backed by Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia.

About the role

Communicate to customers the security guarantees that Sail offers: for example, what zero-data retention means, or the level of isolation offered by microVMs vs. gVisor. Use massive token volumes to red-team our own services and infrastructure. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

  • Strong systems and infrastructure fundamentals (networking, cloud infra, isolation technologies, OS, etc). Ideally, experience with security for large-scale production systems
  • Interest in using large swarms of agents to protect systems
