Intro

Confidential is growing. Fast. And we're looking for software engineers to build the foundations of private, secure, and verifiable compute.

Our team is small but high-agency. You’ll own large pieces of the puzzle.

What You'll Work on: As an engineer at Confidential, you'll design distributed systems, deploy infrastructure globally, and ship software daily.

Here are a few examples of the hard problems you'll work on at Confidential:

Build software for end-to-end private, secure AI inference, training, and fine-tuning.
Publish open source industry standards for TEEs and TEE attestations.
Implement Zero Knowledge (ZK) circuits to secure TEEs, keys, and infrastructure.
Scale infra globally across on prem, bare metal, and every hyperscalar & neocloud.
Write Linux kernel modules for private logging and telemetry.
Optimize AI workloads across TEE hardware from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel.
Build and package software securely in TEEs for attestable builds and supply chain security.
Collaborate with the TEE hardware vendors on next generation TEE implementations.

Requirements

Confidential values these traits above all others:

Consistent: You ship daily. Relentless: You find a way or make a way. Curious: You thrive in the unfamiliar. New problems energize you. Collaborative: People want to work with you. You communicate clearly.

Qualifications

Thats it. Really. We dont care where, or if, you went to school.

Bonus Experience

It's a bonus, not a requirement, if you have experience with any of the following:

Distributed systems
Cryptography
Low level systems engineering
Python, Golang, and/or Rust
Linux
Kubernetes
AMD, Intel, or ARM Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs)
NVIDIA Confidential Computing (CC)
AI inference, training, and/or fine-tuning
