About Always Further

Always Further builds agent security tooling with a heritage from sigstore.dev, securing npm, pypi, brew, and providing attestations for GitHub releases, Nvidia, and Google for AI model signing. We are now building the Nono agent security runtime and are hiring founding engineers to shape its core architecture and engage with early customers.

Job Description

You will join as a founding engineer to build the core of our agent security runtime. This high autonomy role lets you shape architecture, engage with early customers, and make trade-offs that define the product. You will build the layer between agentic reasoning and system execution intercepting, classifying, and validating every agent instruction against security policy before it runs. Design systems that cryptographically verify every instruction and action, maintaining ground truth in environments prone to hallucination and injection. Architect fine grained, time scoped primitives that allow least privilege permissions with the ability to escalate under controlled auditable conditions. Work with research to stress test our security primitives at scale and turn emerging threat vectors into adaptive defences. Note this posting includes two roles, Principal Software Engineer and Staff Solutions Engineer.
