Build the infrastructure that makes AI trustworthy.
Kepler is an early-stage company solving a foundational problem: making AI outputs defensible, traceable, and reproducible. We're a small team of senior engineers, product builders, and domain experts working at the intersection of AI, data infrastructure, and finance.
What it's like here.
Foundational problems
We're not building another wrapper on GPT. We're building the infrastructure layer that separates AI reasoning from deterministic data retrieval. This is systems work with real architectural depth.
Small team, high ownership
Every engineer owns their domain end to end. You'll ship features that are in production within days, working directly with customers who depend on what you build.
Exceptional people
Our founding team includes senior engineers from Palantir, Citadel, and Meta. We're backed by the founders of Meta AI Research, OpenAI, dbt Labs, MotherDuck, and Square/Block.
Production-first culture
We design for critical workloads from day one. Durable execution, automated rollbacks, continuous delivery with end-to-end observability. We ship code that people trust with real decisions.
How we work.
Trust as the default
People do their best work when confidence is mutual. We show our work, keep our promises, and give feedback directly. No politics, no posturing.
Forward-deployed with product DNA
We build with customers, not for them. Everyone on the team sees the product used in live sessions. What we ship is shaped by real problems, not assumptions.
Extreme ownership
If you see a problem, it's yours. Authority comes from initiative, not job titles. You'll own your work end to end, from idea through production.
Production-first engineering
We build for critical workloads from day one. The systems we ship are the systems people depend on. Reliability and rigor aren't afterthoughts.
Communicate with intent
Great work disappears without great communication. We share context proactively, match the medium to the stakes, and treat clarity as a core skill.
Earn it every day
The best idea wins, regardless of who says it. We hold everyone to the same high standard and create an environment where strong work gets recognized.
