Who Are We? Postman is the world’s leading API platform, used by more than 45 million+ developers and 500,000 organizations, including 98% of the Fortune 500. Postman is helping developers and professionals across the globe build the API-first world by simplifying each step of the API lifecycle and streamlining collaboration—enabling users to create better APIs, faster. The company is headquartered in San Francisco and has offices in Boston, New York, Austin, Tokyo, London, and Bangalore - where Postman was founded. Postman is privately held, with funding from Battery Ventures, BOND, Coatue, CRV, Insight Partners, and Nexus Venture Partners. Learn more at postman.com or connect with Postman on X via @getpostman. P.S: We highly recommend reading The "API-First World" graphic novel to understand the bigger picture and our vision at Postman. The Opportunity As agentic AI becomes the core fabric of how engineering is done worldwide, we want to be the leaders in how agents interact with APIs. This transformation requires solving agentic identity, extending or building new standards and protocols, building agent-to-agent interactions including authorization, licensing, trust delegation, security and monetization. We are looking for an exceptional Staff Engineer to help us build the next generation of our Business Platform to support the agentic era. You will be responsible for setting the vision for the long term architecture of various components in the Business Platform. You’ll be accountable for strategy, technical roadmap and architecture of the platform. You’ll work with multiple teams, overseeing and contributing to delivery and owning critical operational KPIs such as availability and uptime. Your role involves designing, implementing, and running critical tier 0 services for the company. We’re looking for a seasoned individual contributor leader who can work effectively with product management and engineering leaders within the company and build a high quality pla
At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. You don’t just use tools; you possess an innate curiosity, treating AI as a high-trust collaborator that is core to how you solve problems and accelerate your impact. We look for low-ego individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-moving environments and move with an experimental mindset — who rapidly test emerging capabilities to discover simpler, more powerful ways to deliver results. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. There is only one Data Cloud. Snowflake’s founders started from scratch and designed a data platform built for the cloud that is effective, affordable, and accessible to all data users. But it didn’t stop there. They engineered Snowflake to power the Data Cloud, where thousands of organizations unlock the value of their data with near-unlimited scale, concurrency, and performance. Easily analyze your unstructured data, build data agents and create ML workflows using a comprehensive suite of AI services, all within the same secure and governed environment as your data. This is our vision: a world with endless insights to tackle the challenges and opportunities of today and reveal the possibilities of tomorrow. The identity & access management (IAM) team’s charter is to enable our customers to confidently bring their most sensitive data and workloads to Snowflake. We provide the authentication and authorization capabilities for customers to secure their Snowflake accounts. We are heavily focused on critical AI adoption and security capabilities like Snowflake Intelligence access control, MCP server and clients, Agent identity, Admin guardrails for agents etc. Our feature set includes capabilities like user management, secret-less authentication for both human and service
We're building the platform that lets long-running autonomous agents operate safely inside NVIDIA's enterprise. These are not assistants on a developer's laptop. They are fleets of agents deployed in the cloud, running continuously at scale on shared accelerated compute. They take on real work across enterprise systems, so people get far more done than they could before. This role defines the constructs that agents are built from: the blueprints they start from, the tools, skills, and plugins that power them against enterprise data, the runtime safety harness that keeps them in bounds, and the connections into credential management, sandbox, memory, and observability. The team designs and ships these building blocks so that agent developers across the company can stand up a new agent, wire it in, and run it for days or weeks. Security and safe execution come out of the box, not something each team has to get right on its own. Today an agent runs inside a single harness. Claude, Codex, and open-source agent harnesses each work differently underneath, with their own execution model, tool interface, and telemetry shape. The platform smooths over those differences, so a single skill, safety policy, or trace works the same no matter which harness is running. We want to enable agents that act on a person's behalf, governed and secure, continuously evaluated and self-improving. These agents coordinate and hand work off to each other, with identity and policy following every hop. They route and tune themselves across harnesses from live eval signals, and get better from their own production telemetry instead of waiting on a human to retrain them. Have you run agents on a harness like Claude or Codex and hit the walls that show up when they run for real, for days, against live systems — and wanted them to learn from it on their own? We're building the platform that solves those problems once, for every team. What you'll b
