You give people secure, observable access to computers they own or are authorised to use, wherever those machines are. Much of this happens across home networks, which are hostile in ways data-centre networking is not: NAT, flaky links, and no operator.

The work: Build authenticated device discovery, encrypted connections, NAT traversal and network-aware scheduling. Measure bandwidth, latency, data movement and disconnections. Separate remote task dispatch from tightly coupled distributed training, and enforce limits on data leaving the user's device. What good looks like:

In your first 90 days, deliver a two-site execution prototype with revocation, transfer accounting and clear behavior during network loss.
Evidence we look for:
Bring networking and distributed systems experience, including protocol debugging and practical understanding of home-network constraints. RDMA or high-performance cluster networking is valuable for specialized workloads.

Required:

Networking and distributed-systems experience, including protocol debugging at the packet level
Practical understanding of home-network constraints, not just data-centre assumptions
You can make a connection observable enough to diagnose without making it a surveillance channel
Security instincts about anything that crosses a network boundary

Nice to have:

RDMA or high-performance cluster networking for the specialised workloadsNAT traversal, QUIC, or WireGuard-style tunnelling
You have shipped something that had to work on consumer routers
The exercise:

Compare placing computation beside the data with moving the data across a slow uplink, using explicit assumptions. How we work: We work together in the office, five days a week, and you can be based at any of our garages: Kirkland Garage (Kirkland, WA); UAE Garage (Dubai, Dubai). We hire across the United States, India and the UAE. We are remote-friendly around family: if you need to work from home some days to look after the people you love, we arrange that with you one person at a time, and we encourage people to use it rather than tough it out.

Pay: We publish what we pay. Indicative ranges by market and level are on our compensation page, and they are realistic going market rates rather than headline numbers. Wherever we hire we pay at least the local market rate, and for full-time roles our floor is a living wage, never the statutory minimum. Compensation is reviewed every year and on promotion.

Equity:

Every full-time teammate gets stock options. Four-year vesting with a one-year cliff, sized to role, level and impact, and confirmed in writing at offer. High performers earn refresh grants.
Bonus and commission:
An annual performance bonus tied to clear company and personal goals, indicatively 10 to 20 percent of base for non-sales roles. Customer-facing roles carry on-target earnings, typically a 50/50 split of base and variable, with uncapped commission and accelerators above quota.
Health and peace of mind:

Medical, dental and vision for you and your family, plus life and disability cover. We have chosen the highest plan tier available to us rather than the cheapest one that clears the bar, because the point of this is that you never have to think about it. The specific plan numbers are confirmed in your offer letter.401(k) with company matching: A 401(k) with a company match, so the years you spend here compound into something that is yours whatever happens next. The match formula is confirmed in your offer letter. AI tokens: A budget of AI tokens of your own, because a company that says you should own your AI cannot be the company that rations it. Use them on the work and on whatever you are curious about. Gym, and the everyday things: A gym membership, and a corporate benefits programme with its own app, where you redeem real discounts with a long list of retailers on the ordinary purchases of a life. Family: We are remote-friendly around your family, arranged one person at a time, and we would rather you took it than toughed it out. Referrals: Refer someone we hire full-time who stays a year and you get $1,000 plus $10,000 in referral stock-based equity, on top of your own package.
