Speakeasy provides the AI control plane for enterprises.
We help companies securely scale usage of AI with a platform to centrally manage MCPs, Skills, and Assistants your whole company can use, with fine-grained permissions, threat detection, and full observability.
We are a fast growing venture backed team based out of San Francisco and London. We have a track record of building developer tools and infrastructure widely used from Fortune 500 to well known startups.
Working at Speakeasy as an engineer means being a product owner, collaborating closely with GTM and owning product decisions from inception to customer success. We care deeply about craft, quality and execution.
This is a unique, high-impact opportunity to join a passionate team about an intuitive craft to enable solving green field and hard product problems. You’ll be working on an early product with a fast moving team that’s done this before and collaborating with founders (and customers) directly on a daily basis.
You will collaborate closely with the rest of the product and engineering team to
- Design and ship features that enforce enterprise security policies around MCP usage and access.
- Improve and fine tune our risk policy system. This includes both deterministic and prompt based policies using LLM-as-a-judge techniques.
- Deepen our integrations with identity providers and stay up to date on the latest developments in agent identity.
- Collaborate on hardening our own security posture.
You’re a good fit if...
- You want to join a talent-dense team made up of ex-founders and domain experts across various developer tools, languages, and infrastructure (in fact over a quarter of the team https://x.com/benln/status/1990086675096064379?s=20).
- Ownership excites you in the full lifecycle of development: building, shipping, running support, maintaining infrastructure and measuring impact.
- You have shipped features on products used by security teams
- You have an exceptional ability to learn, pickup new frameworks, and can work across the stack from backend to frontend.
- Ability to participate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents.
- Ability to work in person in our San Francisco Office
