Engineering Team Lead, Sandbox

This is a people-leadership role from day one. You will manage the team — hiring, coaching, performance, growth paths, honest feedback — while staying close to the code: roughly half your time in architecture decisions and the hardest technical problems the team faces, the other half leading your squad. If you are looking for a senior IC role, this is not it.

AI agents don't run in browsers. They run in sandboxes — and you will lead the team building ours.

We build secure, isolated, network-controlled environments with snapshotting primitives, designed for AI agents and reinforcement-learning workloads. An RL training run doesn't need one environment; it needs thousands, created and destroyed every second. An agent needs to be sandboxed from the world while still feeling fast enough to be useful. That tension — airtight isolation, at fleet scale, at low latency — is the product.

Your customers are the people building the next generation of AI software on our infrastructure; the primitives you ship become the runtime their agents live in.

• Build the isolation layer: microVMs or containers, namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, snapshot and restore.
• Own the security boundary. Customers run code they didn't write and can't fully trust — your systems make that safe.
• Scale to fleets: creation latency, density, and lifecycle management for thousands of concurrent environments.
• Write Go alongside your team and own the architecture and the hardest implementation decisions.
• Grow the engineers, not just the software — set the standard for ownership and coach people past their comfort zone.
• Own people management for the team: hiring, performance, growth paths, and honest feedback.
• Partner with Product Managers to turn frontier research needs into shippable primitives.
