Zipher is building the Autonomous Execution Layer for cloud data and AI workloads. Backed by $50M in funding , we dynamically orchestrate clusters, predict bottlenecks, and auto-heal infrastructure in real time — with zero human intervention . Our platform runs in production at global enterprise customers, including Fortune 500 companies , delivering mission-critical resilience and sub-second optimization Autonomous execution is a new category, and we are the ones defining it — already running in production inside Fortune 500 environments , where being wrong is not an option. The team is deliberately talent-dense ; every hire changes what we are able to build next. We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 7+ years of development experience at leading startups to own Zipher’s entire product surface — the control plane that turns autonomous decisions into something engineering leaders can see, trust, and act on. You will own it end to end: the services and APIs behind it, and the real-time interfaces built on top of them. This is a backend-heavy role: about 70% backend and 30% frontend. It is best suited for candidates whose primary expertise and passion lie in backend development.
What You’ll Do
* Own the product surface end to end : architecture, services, APIs, and the real-time interfaces built on top of them
* Set the technical direction of the control plane — stack, data contracts, and the patterns every engineer after you builds on
* Build high-throughput services that turn live telemetry from production data and AI workloads into decisions, and the explainability layer that makes those decisions readable
* Work directly with the founders on what gets built next, and lead the technical moves that follow — from what enterprise customers need to the architecture that answers it
* Drive quality end to end: testing, CI/CD, observability, and the operational bar for a product Fortune 500 engineering teams run in production
What We Offer A product that is already winning : a new category of autonomous data platform, in production inside Fortune 500 environments A domain of your own : you lead it end to end — the architecture, the stack, and the patterns every engineer after you builds on A seat on the core team : you are one of the engineers deciding what the platform becomes, not one implementing someone else’s decisions Engineering problems that are genuinely hard : real-time telemetry at enterprise scale, distributed decisions, and an explainability layer teams trust in production Engineers worth learning from : a deliberately talent-dense team, direct work with the founders, and a bar that pulls everyone up Room to grow and to lead : your ownership widens as the platform does, and the people who lead moves here keep leading them Top-of-market compensation and a meaningful equity package Ready to own the control plane for an autonomous data platform? Hit Apply.
Requirements: What You’ll Bring 7+ years of development experience at leading startups – Must
* Experience as a developer in an elite IDF technology unit (e.g. 8200, Mamram, Ofek, Matzpen) – Strong advantage Full stack engineering experience weighted to the backend (about 70% backend, 30% frontend): production services, APIs, and data-intensive systems
* Strong production mastery of Python (FastAPI) and TypeScript/React , plus 2+ years of hands-on production experience with AWS — Lambda, ECS, Fargate, DynamoDB, ECR, S3, API Gateway, or EventBridge
* Experience building cyber, AI, or data-intensive products where scale, latency, and correctness are the hard part
* A track record of taking systems from architecture to production at scale , and owning them once they are there BSc in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related engineering discipline
* A high-agency, maker mindset : strong product intuition, engineering craftsmanship, and full ownership
This position is open to all candidates.
