Founding Software Engineer - Agentic Systems
At Veriff, we are exploring the next frontier of identity verification: agentic AI systems that can reason, act, and operate safely in high-trust environments.
We are forming a small, high-leverage team to explore and productionize agentic capabilities across identity, KYA, risk assessment, and automation workflows.
We are looking for a Founding Engineer to help build this from the ground up.
You’ll help us protect honest people online by
- Design and build agentic systems that can:
- Use tools;
- Reason across multi-step workflows;
- Operate under strict compliance and safety constraints.
- Prototype and productionize LLM-powered workflows;
- Build internal evaluation frameworks for agent reliability;
- Define system architecture for scalable, secure AI services;
- Work closely with product, risk, and compliance teams;
- Turn ambiguous ideas into working systems.
