Software Engineer

The Role We are looking for software engineers to build the platform that enterprises use to understand and govern their AI agents. Geordie is building category-defining tooling for agent visibility, governance, and risk. The ecosystem around us is moving fast, our customers are moving fast, and we ship product every day to keep up. You will work directly with customers to understand what they need, design solutions together, and get changes in front of them quickly. We use a variety of technologies across the Java, Python, Node, Rust, and Golang ecosystems and cloud-native infrastructure. We make heavy use of agents in our day-to-day work and dogfood our own product extensively. Our engineering culture takes influence from Extreme Programming: collaborative by default, close to customers, iterating in small steps, and shipping at a swift but sustainable pace. We pair often, share ownership of what we build, and lean on automated tests and observability so we can keep moving without breaking what we have already shipped. What You'll Do Build and improve product capabilities for customers, shipping every day. Own outcomes for customers, together with a pair or small team. Discuss, design, and iterate solutions collaboratively with customers. Simplify the complex, refactoring internal systems and streamlining customer workflows. Learn and explore the future of agents and agent risks alongside the rest of the team. Contribute to the technical direction of the product, the platform, and the way we work. Participate in the on-call rota to support our systems and customers. What We're Looking For The most important thing in this role is care for customer outcomes. You build software, solve problems, and keep systems running smoothly for customers, and you own ensuring that what you have built meets their needs. You care deeply about technical quality, automated tests, observability, and the automation that lets us ship fast for customers. You are also pragmatic, favouring simple solutions that work now over engineering for anticipated future needs. You enjoy working closely with other engineers and with customers. You are comfortable pairing, comfortable thinking out loud, and comfortable being wrong in front of other people. You are continually learning, seeking to understand the domain you are working in, the technologies you are working with, and better ways of working. You are always looking to improve yourself and the rest of the team. You give feedback freely and kindly, and receive feedback gratefully. Requirements Coding ability; you can read and understand code quickly. Effective collaboration, whether pair programming or making decisions as a team. Proficiency in one of the programming languages we use (Java, Python, TypeScript, Rust, Golang). Understanding of secure software development practices and common software vulnerabilities. High degree of ownership, adaptability, and willingness to operate in fast-moving environments with evolving processes and tooling. Nice to Haves Familiarity with AI agents, workflow orchestration, or operational automation using modern AI tooling. Security research experience finding and disclosing vulnerabilities. Experience working in high-growth startups. Experience with native systems programming in C++ or Rust. Experience with pair programming or other highly collaborative ways of working. Why This Role AI agents are changing how companies operate, and the question of how to govern them safely is only going to grow. Geordie is building the platform enterprises rely on to answer that question. You will work on a product where the problem space is still being defined, alongside customers who are figuring it out at the same time we are. You will ship real things to real users every week, work closely with people you can learn from, and help shape both the product and the way an early-stage company chooses to build software. Our Values Solve What Matters We listen intently and stay focused on what truly matters to our customers. If it doesn't help them navigate real-world agentic adoption and risk, it's probably not worth building. Build, Learn, Iterate We favour momentum over perfection - testing, learning, and evolving through action. It's how we move fast and get better, together. Kind, Not Comfortable We're honest, respectful, and unafraid to challenge each other. We believe doing great work should feel good, too. Kindness makes that possible. A Platform for Your Best Work We want this to be the most meaningful chapter of your career. Geordie is the place where you grow, lead and lift others, while building something that truly matters.
