About the Role We are a small team of AI builders in Paytm Labs. As a Staff AI Platform Engineer, you will work across inference and agentic systems. You will contribute to Paytm's AI inference platform (Pi), serving internal teams and enterprise customers - running our own coding and domain-specific models (voice, vision, risk, fintech workflows) as well as third-party models. You will also architect and build the platform that enables autonomous AI agents to operate safely and reliably in production - the runtime, orchestration, and developer tooling for agents to reason, plan, use tools, and execute complex multi-step workflows, automating both software development and business processes. You will work at the intersection of LLMs, distributed systems, and production fintech infrastructure, helping define how inference and agentic AI are built and deployed across payments, risk, fraud, collections, support, and developer experience.

Secure Every Identity, from AI to Human Identity is the key to unlocking the potential of AI. Okta secures AI by building the trusted, neutral infrastructure that enables organizations to safely embrace this new era. This work requires a relentless drive to solve complex challenges with real-world stakes. We are looking for builders and owners who operate with speed and urgency and execute with excellence. This is an opportunity to do career-defining work. We're all in on this mission. If you are too, let's talk. Staff FullStack Engineer, AI Acceleration Team The AI Acceleration Team The AI Acceleration Team builds AI features right where identity and agents meet. Companies are handing real access to AI agents faster than their controls can keep up, and two problems show up first: how do you authorize what an agent is allowed to do on someone's behalf, and how do you keep both people and agents from being phished? We take those on directly. Our North Star: to get AI right, you have to get identity right. We are a new team, and we shape the problems as much as we solve them. We bring a product mindset to the work: we dig into what customers actually need, define the outcome, and build toward it. We move fast, stay close to the real problem, and are honest about what works. The Staff FullStack Engineer Opportunity As a Staff FullStack Engineer on the AI Acceleration Team, you will own the technical build for solving agent authorization and phishing resistance. You see what needs doing and start it. This is 0-to-1 work, meaning you will move on problems before they are fully specified, always keeping customer success as the ultimate bar. You will help shape which problems we take on, make architectural calls that outlive any single project, and set the technical bar for how we work. You will enforce least privilege for what agents can do and make phishing-resistant access the default. We build with Vercel and AWS, and you will likely work heavily in JavaScript/TypeScri

At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. As a Staff Software Engineer on the Automation - Foundations team, you will lead the re-platforming of the data layer underneath Vanta’s entire compliance product. This is a migration that spans multiple teams, has to preserve every public API contract along the way, and cannot lose a single customer’s evidence while it happens. Foundations is Vanta’s data platform team. We ingest security and compliance data from across our customer’s environments, currently tens of thousands of resources per second, with single-customer bursts running into the millions. We store the data, catalog it, make it queryable, and turn it into evidence that has to survive a real SOC 2 or FedRAMP audit. We are in the middle of moving our platform from a Mongo-centric architecture to a schema-aware, Postgres-backed architecture, on a Kafka and S3 pipeline that decouples data fetching from processing. Both pipelines run in parallel today, the hard problems here are correctness under migration, eventual consistency, and multi-tenancy, in a domain where “mostly right” is not an acceptable failure mode. Visit our Vanta Engineering Blog to learn more about what our team is working on. What you'll do as a Staff Software Engineer at Vanta: Lead the migration of Vanta’s resource data model from a Mongo-centric solution to a schema-aware Postgres-backed solution and running both generations in parallel without breaking a customer integration. Drive solutions across teams that you do not own but are dependent on the platform built by your team. Design for correctness under eventual consistency with idempotent session handling, conditional writes that survive out
