About this role

## About AIUC AIUC’s mission is to underwrite superintelligence. We red-team, certify, and insure agents—so they can be deployed safely in high-stakes settings like hospitals, banks, and governments. We’ve built **AIUC-1**, a gold standard for agent security & reliability, with a consortium of **100+ CISOs** from the Fortune 1000. ## The Role — Forward-Deployed Engineer Every AI company that comes to AIUC needs proof their agent is safe enough for enterprise sale. That requires running **thousands of evaluations** against their live system. In this role, you’ll be the engineer who sits with the customer, understands how their agent works, and wires it into AIUC’s evaluation system—**end to end**. ### What you’ll do - **Own the path** from signed customer to delivered results - **Scope what to test**, work through authentication + interfaces, and get the agent running in our system - Build **one-off versions** when a customer doesn’t fit the product yet - Deliver results directly to the customer and be the trusted technical point of contact - Make the call on whether a customer meets the **AIUC-1 standard** - Partner across Delivery, core engineering, Sales, and Standards (plus the customer’s engineering team) - Turn what you learn in the field into the product (so future evaluations can run **without an engineer in the loop**) ### What we’re looking for - **3–7 years** experience (startup early engineer, or integration/solutions/forward-deployed role selling technical products to technical buyers). Impact matters more than years. - Strong software engineering skills to **build and debug integrations** - Judgment to know when a scrappy approach is the right answer - Comfort owning a **customer relationship directly** - Ability to scope work, set expectations, and deliver bad news early - **Customer obsession**: you see it through - Discipline to make field learnings **reusable** (not one-off fixes) ### Nice to have - Experience founding/co-founding - Experience with **AI evaluations** or **red-teaming** - Executive presence with senior stakeholders ## Compensation & Perks - Competitive salary + meaningful equity - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance - Visa sponsorship and relocation support to **San Francisco** (where applicable) - A team dedicated to doing the best work of your life ## Values - **Strong Back:** High standards, keep promises, work hard - **Fast Feet:** Experiment, cut scope, delight in pace - **Eyes Up:** Feel the AGI across strategy and day-to-day work - **Open Heart:** Say the scary thing, create connection, make room for emotions
