Job Type: Full time

Chief Technology Officer (Co-Founder Level)Kentron AI · Remote · Full-time · Equity-only compensationWhy this role existsAI agents now take real actions on real systems. They open pull requests, change cloud infrastructure, and update customer records. When something goes wrong, most teams can't say exactly what the agent did, and they can't prove it.Kentron AI is building Receipt to close that gap. Every AI action is verified and replayable.What we're buildingReceipt is a team chat workspace whose AI coworkers do real work. Agents write and run code in isolated sandboxes, connect to the SaaS tools teams already use, and turn open-ended requests into deterministic, repeatable results.Every step is recorded as an append-only, cryptographically chained receipt. Receipts are not logs sitting beside the system. They are the system's source of truth, which gives you tamper evidence, replay, and crash recovery by design.The platform has two halves. Receipt is the real-time chat experience. Factory is the durable agent execution engine behind it. Customers bring their own AI provider keys, so the platform stays model-agnostic.What you'll ownTechnical vision. Set the long-term architecture for provable agent execution and decide what we build, buy, and defer.The trust layer. Evolve the receipt model from internal consistency toward independent, third-party verifiability.Engineering execution. Ship quickly without cutting corners on correctness, isolation, or security. Own reliability, observability, and incident response.Security and compliance posture. Build the technical foundations enterprise and regulated buyers require, including access auditing, data retention, and tenant isolation.Team building. Hire, mentor, and lead a small team of senior engineers. Set the engineering culture from day one.Customer-facing depth.
