About the role
Software Engineering Intern - Unbound
The Problem
AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) can write code, run shell commands, and modify infrastructure across an entire engineering org. Most companies have zero visibility into what these agents are doing and no way to stop a bad tool call before it executes.
We're building the governance and security layer for AI coding agents: agent and tool discovery across dev fleets, usage and token analytics through an LLM gateway, and runtime policy enforcement that intercepts risky actions before they happen.
Who We Are
We're Vignesh and Raj. We come from deep engineering, product, and security backgrounds. We started Unbound because we kept seeing orgs hand AI agents broad access to codebases, infrastructure, and APIs with zero guardrails. That felt like a problem worth solving. We're YC-backed and building out of the Bay Area.
What You'll Do
Ship real features. You'll own features from design through deployment. Your code runs in production and gets used by engineering teams at real companies.
Work across the stack. Our product spans agent discovery, an LLM gateway, and a runtime policy engine. You'll touch Python, Next.js, Kubernetes, and cloud infra. If you haven't used something on this list, you'll learn it here.
Work with founders directly. You'll have full context on what we're building and why. You'll sit in on customer calls, see the roadmap, and understand the business, not just your tickets.
