Original posting

Cybersecurity/AI seed startup | Founding AI Engineer | Bay Area | Full-time We're seed-staged, 3 people, building an AI for cybersecurity, looking for a founding AI engineer who wants to learn/apply SOTA techniques for AI. Ideal background is experience building production agentic AI systems (by this I mean something like Simon's definition: https://simonwillison.net/2025/Sep/18/agents/ definition) who also likes to think about WHAT to build and not just how. We are a Golang/Python shop (although I'm not sure that matters so much any more). Email jobs@polarsky.ai with subject HN.
