[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Researcher","description":"

Mindset

You pick work that teaches you something. You’re the kind of researcher who reads the paper, questions the setup, builds the missing system, and shows the work. Original thinking matters to you, but it is not enough on its own. You turn ideas into code, experiments, prototypes, and products people can actually use.

What you'll do

You will work on the core problems that appear when agents need to act on behalf of people and organizations: identity, delegation, permissions, memory, provenance, and auditability. The work starts with unclear questions and ends with systems others can run. You might study how an agent should inherit authority, how permissions should persist across tools, how actions should be recorded and reviewed, or how memory and context should be structured so behavior stays reliable over time.

Mindset

If you’re someone who cares about our mission, creates a lot of value, and feels you have something to contribute, reach out. Even if we’re not actively hiring for your role, we’re excited to meet exceptional people and explore what we can build together.

Mindset

You think about how cryptographic primitives can be used to secure identity, access, communication, and storage of data. Have opinions on how trust, authorization, and credential systems should evolve with newer advances in computing and algorithms. Understand the principles that go into designing robust and adaptive cryptographic systems. Are able to identify potential flaws in a given cryptographic scheme, protocol, or implementation.

What you’ll do

You will work on the cryptographic foundations that let people, agents, and systems establish identity, delegate authority, and protect sensitive data. The job is to turn messy security requirements into mechanisms that are precise, durable, and usable in practice. You might design identity and access systems, build credentialing and key management infrastructure, develop secure and privacy-preserving protocols, or evaluate existing systems against realistic attack models. The aim is not just elegant cryptography, but systems that remain trustworthy under real-world use.

Preferred Background

Designed and implemented identity and access management systems that use cryptographic techniques to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.
Developed cryptographic protocols to enable secure communication between distributed systems and trusted services.
Designed and implemented privacy-enhancing technologies to enable secure transactions and communication while preserving users' privacy.
Built secure key management systems, credentialing infrastructure, and other tools to enable users to manage cryptographic material securely.
Mindset
You think about infrastructure as part of the product, not as a back-office function. Have opinions on how deployment systems, shared environments, gateways, and audit pipelines should be designed so they are reliable in practice and legible to the people who depend on them. Understand how to turn a local-dev-only system into one that a team can build, test, deploy, and debug together. Are able to balance platform concerns with product realities, and can make infrastructure choices that improve velocity without hiding failure modes.
What you'll do
Half the job is standing up the deployment foundation: CI/CD, shared development and staging environments, and a demo-ready hosting setup that other engineers can use from day one.
The other half is owning product-facing infrastructure, especially the API gateway and audit pipeline that external users and enterprise buyers depend on. You might design deployment workflows, build auth middleware and request routing, implement event logging and observability, codify environments with infrastructure as code, or define the operational patterns that the rest of the engineering team builds on.
Preferred Background
- Built CI/CD pipelines and shared environments that other engineers depended on to ship production systems.
- Deployed and operated containerized applications across staging and production, including secrets, networking, monitoring, and incident response.
- Designed API gateways, reverse proxies, or auth middleware that handled token validation, rate limiting, and request routing between services.
- Built audit or event logging pipel","datePosted":"2023-03-15","employmentType":"FULL_TIME","hiringOrganization":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Mem","sameAs":"https://get.mem.ai/"},"url":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/mem/957b6e94-2bbf-422d-a9de-7387299b96e6","jobLocation":{"@type":"Place","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressLocality":"San Francisco"}}}]
