Opsin Security | Product, Backend & AI Engineers | Full-time | $175K–$250K base + equity | Hybrid / REMOTE (US) | Visa sponsorship

I’m Shay, a founding engineer at Opsin. We build security software that helps enterprises understand which AI agents they have, what those agents can access, and where they pose a risk. We recently raised funding (https://www.opsinsecurity.com/blog/opsin-raises-21m-to-expan...) and are growing our engineering team.

We’re hiring across three roles, from 3+ years of experience through Staff level: - Product Engineer: Build customer-facing features end to end, from understanding the problem to shipping and iterating. https://www.opsinsecurity.com/jobs/product-engineer - Backend Engineer: Build and operate APIs, services, and data workflows behind our security platform. https://www.opsinsecurity.com/jobs/backend-engineer - AI Engineer: Build production AI systems that evaluate agents and turn identity, permissions, data, and activity into explainable risk insights. https://www.opsinsecurity.com/jobs/ai-engineer

Location: San Francisco / San Jose preferred; Boston and NYC areas also welcome. Hybrid means 2–3 days together in person each week. Fully remote within the US is also possible for the right person.

Compensation: $175K–$250K annual base, depending on level and qualifications, plus meaningful early-stage equity and comprehensive benefits through Justworks. Visa sponsorship available.

Apply: [email protected]. No agencies, please.

Re:Monitoring Mint with Microcontrollers Running TinyGo on Sunday September 13, 2026 @03:50AM (#49681160)
Just a fun weekend project, WAY TOO DEEPLY documented. There's a part 2, too, in which I think I found some bugs and opened some issues. And it works!!! Just got this message: mint-front-porch is dry (56176) [1: uptime: 2h0m6s].
Cool stuff. Multi agent orch seems cool but isn't running the agent at the top of a monorepo a good solve?

Re:Do Sheep Under Solar Panels Count as Clean Energy? on Wednesday March 26, 2025 @01:13PM (#43484431)
What is the alternative for these lands? If they are private, and they are used only to raise sheep/only for solar, both options seem clearly worse. To me Argovoltaics seem like a no-brainer. What is this article adding that I'm missing?

Love the fact that I can print these. That's really great. Thanks! I'm debating if to print it in the office printer right now...
The moment you say "Please stop with FUD" I instantly assume that the reason you're actually worried about FUD is because it's directly linked to the value of your tokens.
Re:Daylight Computer – New 60fps e-paper tablet on Friday May 24, 2024 @11:51AM (#40467385)
Just clicked on Order and Checkout, but looks like there's no shipping option to Israel. Any update on when that will be possible?
Re:Daylight Computer – New 60fps e-paper tablet on Friday May 24, 2024 @11:44AM (#40467321)
My thought process is: 1. During a physical meeting (all my team is co-located so it's easier) - note taking, brainstorming, etc. If I need to upload something from the meeting to our shared Canvas (on Slack) or to my notes (on Logseq) or just file them away (on Confluence, Logseq, Hibob, Slack, email) - seems a lot easier to stay connected and focused on the precious 1:1 time and juggle the data later. 2. During any other meeting; connect from my laptop via Zoom and write down notes on the paper. This will almost force me to not do what I usually do, which is lose focus on the meeting, stop thinking, and idly do something else (like zeroing my inbox, reading Slack, or programming). When I was in the Army and carried a physical paper notebook every meeting was actually useful for me.
Re:Daylight Computer – New 60fps e-paper tablet on Friday May 24, 2024 @04:17AM (#40464094)
I'm really thinking about buying one, but I NEED someone (even paid sponsors) on YT to review it and post a real-life video demo of them using it for a real thing in their office to believe the claims.

I can really see how this will make meetings, 1:1s, reviews, blogging, and designs at work way WAY more deep and engaging than with my MacBook. And perhaps it'll help me get into reading more, as well!

I think a nice demo can be Duolingo on it - it's something I do everyday so moving to this device could help me in that :)

Interesting. Some real depth behind this tool.

What other providers are on the Roadmap for y'all?
