Job Description

We’re building accountability infrastructure for enterprise AI in regulated financial environments—the trust, evidence, and audit layer that lets banks and regulators rely on AI. Pre-revenue, ground floor, seeking the founding technical leader who will architect the platform and write production code that becomes the company’s core. You’re likely a current Principal/Staff Engineer, Senior Architect, or Tech Lead ready for your first executive seat while still building hands-on. What matters most: strong software/platform architecture and distributed systems; real security-engineering depth (cryptography, PKI, key management, immutable logging, evidence integrity); cloud-native infra (AWS, CI/CD, IaC) and enterprise API design; and enough fluency with modern AI/LLM systems to grasp why AI needs oversight and accountability. Bonus: RegTech/FinTech/identity background, or nCino/Salesforce/core-banking integration experience. This is a mission and a ground-floor opportunity, not a paycheck play. Equity-first (~2-4% equity) + modest early salary. Compensation discussed directly. Must already have U.S. work authorization; no visa sponsorship. Reach out: david.young@graceaicontrol.com
