Careers

Build the stack the regulated world can actually run.

Banks, hospitals, and agencies can't approve agent products stitched from a dozen SaaS vendors — and self-hosted has always meant inheriting an ops burden. Visca closes both gaps: the whole stack — identity, credentials, runtime, audit — running inside the buyer's walls, maintained by its own operators. The humans here do the three jobs the stack reserves for humans — declare intent, sign approvals, hold the kill-switch — at company scale. If you've built infrastructure that other people trusted with their work, we should talk.

What we believe

The principles we hire against.

Skills can be taught. Calibration on these is what we look for in interviews. If they feel obviously right, you'll fit in. If they feel constraining, you probably won't.

Built to be approved

Everything we ship will be read by a security team before it runs. We design for that reader: explicit identity, scoped credentials, evidence by default. A feature that can't survive a security review isn't finished.

The stack maintains itself

The vendor's ops team was SaaS's secret advantage. Ours is agents — operators that deploy, upgrade, patch, rotate credentials, and answer incidents inside the customer's perimeter. We build the operators alongside the stack, not after it.

Nothing off the record

Every operation is a principal acting within a scope through one governed gateway — including our own maintenance. No tribal knowledge in SSH sessions, no history in console clicks. If it isn't on the ledger, it didn't happen.

Humans keep three jobs

Declare intent, sign approvals, hold the kill-switch. We are explicit about what stays human, and we engineer everything else to run without heroics — in the product and in how the company itself operates.

Fewer surfaces, deeper polish

Integrated, opinionated, secure by default. The engineer who never reads the docs still ships something a security team can approve. That is the bar, and it costs us obvious-looking work we deliberately decline.

Critical peer review

We disagree with each other when we are wrong. Honesty over agreement. We push back, we explain reasoning, and we credit the change-of-mind explicitly. No sycophancy.

Roles

Who we are hiring.

We hire archetypes more than we hire titles — we are early enough that the right person can shape the role. If your experience fits one of these and you would bring it to a self-hosted, self-maintaining stack for regulated industries, write to us.

Distributed-systems engineering

You have built systems that other people trusted with their work. You think in protocols, not features. Comfortable with Go, Rust, and the kinds of papers that distributed-systems engineers cite over lunch.

Apply

Cryptography & identity

Production cryptography practitioner. You've designed identity systems, attestation chains, capability schemes, or PKI. Equally comfortable with the math and the operational realities of key custody.

Apply

Developer experience

You have designed developer surfaces (CLIs, SDKs, eval harnesses, paved paths) that thousands of engineers depend on. You believe defaults are the product and that the best documentation is the one that doesn't need to exist.

Apply

Field engineering & solutions

You've stood up production deployments of enterprise infrastructure inside regulated organizations. You speak both CISO and platform-lead, and you can read a code repository as well as you can read a procurement RFP.

Apply

Technical writing

You write the kind of documentation that engineers cite back to other engineers years later. Specifications, architecture references, the documents a security review actually reads — all of it.

Apply

Don't see your fit?

Write us anyway.

Practicalities

The honest details.

Where

Remote-first, with optional in-person time at the founding office. We hire across time zones that overlap with one of our two core working windows.

Hours

Asynchronous defaults; meetings only when synchronous is genuinely cheaper. Maker time is protected — engineers should expect long uninterrupted stretches every week.

Process

Conversation first, structured interview second, paid trial project for finalist roles. We do not do whiteboard puzzles. We will ask you to read a real internal document and tell us what you'd change.

The Autonomy Stack for regulated industries

The stack that gets you approved — and then maintains itself.

Identity, credentials, runtime, and audit — shipped as part of your product, run inside your customer's walls, operated by agents under the same ledger as everything else. Nothing leaves the perimeter. Nothing is off the record.
