We're building the cryptographic guardrail layer for AI agents — the substrate that lets enterprises put high-stakes workflows in production with mathematical certainty. Small team. Real distribution. Compounding work.
Agent governance today is policy theatre: best-effort middleware that fails open under prompt injection. Inherence compiles policy into a deterministic gate plus a zero-knowledge proof — every action is enforced before it executes and verifiable by auditors, regulators, or counterparties without revealing the underlying data. The frameworks that get this right will define how AI ships into healthcare, finance, and infrastructure for the next decade. We're building one.
We hire for craft, judgment, and intellectual seriousness. If your background doesn't match a listed role but you think you'd be a fit, write us anyway.
Own one stage of the policy → circuit pipeline. Translation validation against Z3 / CVC5, side-channel hardening, single-pass compilation. Code you write runs inside regulated production environments.
Apply →Drive circuit optimizations and the soundness proofs that underlie our patent-pending performance. PhD or equivalent depth in zkSNARKs, SNARK-friendly hashing, or pairing-based crypto. Publish if you want; ship either way.
Apply →Translate customer policy docs (HIPAA, AP2, SEC 15c3-5, internal Rego/Cedar) into shipping Inherence deployments. You'll embed with pilot teams for weeks at a time and own outcomes end-to-end.
Apply →Own the surface from marketing through to the developer dashboard. Strong typography and information-design taste required. Comfortable shipping production code is a plus, not a requirement.
