About the role
About Naive
Naive is building autonomous companies: agent systems capable of operating real businesses end to end.
We release autonomous company templates and benchmarks, alongside a studio—where users can deploy and operate these systems. Our infrastructure platform, Vetta, powers long-running, high-volume agent workloads.
We’ve raised a $28.5M Series A from Nexus Venture Partners, Y Combinator, Zetta Venture Partners, Liquid 2 and leading operators.
The Role
Build Vetta into the best platform for deploying and operating large-scale agent workloads. You’ll work across core infrastructure and customer deployments. Accordingly, you also have the chance to earn significant equity at a fast growing Series A startup.
What You’ll Do
- Build agent orchestration, execution and tool-use infrastructure
- Improve reliability, latency, observability and cost at scale
- Design systems for long-running, stateful and multi-agent workloads
- Work directly with customers to deploy production agent systems
- Turn customer requirements into reusable platform capabilities
- Own projects from architecture through production
Must-Haves
- Strong Python and distributed-systems engineering
- Experience building production LLM agents
- Understanding of orchestration, queues, retries, state and observability
- Ability to debug complex systems across the full stack
- Strong customer communication and high agency
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience with Pi, Hermes, and building your own agent harness
- Built developer infrastructure, agent runtimes or workflow systems
- Founder, founding engineer or forward-deployed engineering experience
