About the role

I joined Zenity for the opportunity to be at the forefront of securing AI agents at scale. As a leader, I value ownership and transparent, cross-functional collaboration. We move at startup speed with high technical standards, so I look for people who are proactive, customer-obsessed, and unafraid to challenge the status quo - while still keeping the journey fun. This role plays a critical part in our next phase of growth.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience, with proven ability to build - not just maintain - systems, processes, and relationships, and an ownership mindset with accountability for outcomes
  • Expertise with modern programming languages such as Python/C#/Java/Go/TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Experience working on large-scale services based on AWS/Azure/GCP
  • Advanced proficiency with AI coding agents, including skills, rules, etc
  • Comfort operating in evolving, fast-moving, high-growth or venture-backed startup environments
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, and a passionate team player
