About Echo

Echo delivers frontier-hardened software across the enterprise software supply chain.
Echo's containers, libraries, OS packages, VMs, and more are built and patched from source by agentic pipelines, and continuously vetted for supply chain threats. With us, developers and agents can build with secure-by-default software that's compatible with the tools and versions they already use.

We're looking for an AI Engineer to join our team and build the AI agents that build, patch, and secure Echo's artifacts at scale. ​

What you'll do

• Architect and develop autonomous AI agents that build, patch, and validate Echo's artifacts (containers, libraries, and VMs), eliminating vulnerabilities at scale

• Build the agents behind Echo Frontier, our vulnerability research product, using frontier models to find, validate, patch, and disclose vulnerabilities

• Lead some of our biggest initiatives: explore and prototype cutting-edge AI techniques to tackle our hardest challenges, and bring them from concept to production with product and engineering teams

• Monitor and evaluate our AI systems, with feedback loops that continuously improve accuracy, reliability, and performance at enterprise scale

What you bring

Required

• 5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer

• 2+ years of hands-on experience building LLM-based agents and working with AI frameworks

• Low-level or research background, such as C/C++ and operating systems

• Experience building, deploying, and scaling AI agents in production environments

• Proficiency with cloud platforms, particularly AWS, for AI workloads

• Strong problem-solving and communication skills, and the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams

Preferred

• Experience in research or vulnerability research

• Experience building evaluation frameworks for AI agents

• Familiarity with software supply chain security
