## About the Role

Do you have experience in macOS?, Strong systems engineer - backend, OS internals, endpoint/agent software, or developer infrastructure

 * We use Go, but it's fine if that's not your background (what matters is comfort with concurrent, long-running, low-level software)
 * Experience building production systems that must be fast, reliable, and invisible to the user
 * High-agency, high-responsibility individuals with strong product intuition (you care how developers experience what you build)
 * Excited about developer tools and using data to understand how engineers actually work with AI coding agents
 * Bonus: Git internals, developer tools / dev infra, endpoint or monitoring agents (EDR, sync clients, telemetry agents), SQLite or embedded storage, or cross-platform native development

## Description

What You'll Do
*
Build the core systems that detect and attribute AI-generated code at the line level across real Git workflows (rebases, cherry-picks, resets, and all)

 * Design reliable pipelines for capturing, classifying, storing, and shipping developer + agent activity from the endpoint
 * Work directly with Git internals (reflog, commit identity across history rewrites, blob-level attribution) to collect data without interrupting developers
 * Build and maintain integrations with coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Codex, Gemini CLI, and more) via editor/CLI hooks
 * Own cross-platform behavior across macOS, Linux, and Windows
