About Origin
Origin is building the endpoint AI observability platform for AI-adopting organizations. We believe that organizations should not adopt AI on their endpoints without observability in place, and we want to be the platform that maximizes the productivity & safety of that adoption.
The company exists to maximize the diffusion of intelligence inside an organization, maximize the productivity of agentic systems and the humans driving them, keep agent actions traceable end-to-end so that when a user asks for something in a prompt they can verify the agent actually did what was expected, and give organizations one interface to answer the hardest questions they have about how work gets done.
Our platform monitors and protects some of the most important organizations in the world. We are backed by Sequoia Capital, Brightmind Ventures, IA Ventures and other top firms.

Role
We’re looking for a founding, Senior Account Executive who thrives in undefined markets and wants to help build both the GTM motion and the category. In a world where traditional playbooks don’t yet exist, your job is to help us:
Discover who the real buyer is
Clarify the early wedge and repeatable use cases
Run tightly looped experiments on positioning, pricing, and packaging
Turn founder-led sales into a scalable, learnable motion
You’ll work directly with the founder and early engineers, sitting in the center of product, sales, and market learning.
Responsibilities
Partner with founders on sales cycles: Co-run high-stakes early deals with the founder, especially deeply technical or strategic opportunities.
Bring a clear, compelling story: Focusing on AI agents, endpoint risk, and “semantic security” to CISOs, CIOs, security engineering, and AI platform teams.
Improve our GTM process: Experiment with deal structures (design partners, pilots, land-and-expand) and influence how we price and package early offerings.
Take full ownership of your pipeline: Prospect directly into target accounts and partner with our network, investors, and advisors to open doors, building and maintaining a focused pipeline of high-quality conversations.
Be the voice of the market internally:Bring concrete, structured feedback on buyers, objections, integrations, and workflows back into product and engineering, helping shape messaging, narrative, and content.
Contribute to the foundations of sales at Origin: Help define our first quotas and sales process in a way that fits this stage, creating the first generation of playbooks, talk tracks, and enablement materials that future reps will use.
Model the culture for future sales hires: High ownership, low ego, tightly integrated with product and research.
Skills and Experience
5+ Years of Sales Experience: Enterprise sales into Fortune 2000 organization across complex procurement and budgeting cycles.
Self-starter mindset: Takes ownership of your process, follow-ups, and pipeline without needing a playbook.
You’ve sold into very early or ambiguous markets: You’ve been an early AE / first GTM hire at a seed/Series A infrastructure or security company and you’re comfortable selling when the category name isn’t obvious.
You have real enterprise security or infra experience: You’ve sold products in endpoint security, detection & response, identity, cloud security, devtools, or low-level infra, and are comfortable with CISOs and technical architects.
You have a bias toward action and ownership: You’re happy to prospect, run your own follow-ups, build your own deck, write the follow-up memo, and help tune the demo, without a tight process to be effective (though you know how to build those later).
You care about the mission: You believe that AI and agents on endpoints are going to change how enterprises operate.
Nice to Haves
A short note on why early-market, evangelical sales appeals to you, and
One example of a time you helped shape the GTM motion.

Our platform monitors and protects some of the most important organizations in the world. We are backed by Sequoia Capital, Brightmind Ventures, IA Ventures and other top firms.
Role
Origin is hiring software engineers to help us build across our stack: the agent that collects the data, the service that makes sense of it, and the interface that presents it to customers.
You will own design and implementation from idea through release. The role demands a high degree of agency, product taste, and raw technical aptitude. You will work across all of it, from high-performance data ingestion through inference pipelines to the API design and customer-facing surfaces on top. You will be a heavy user of the product you are building, and the friction you feel in your own workflow becomes the next thing we ship for customers.
This is an AI-native engineering team: most of the code we ship is written by agents. You should already be fluent in the agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode) and able to build your own when an existing one does not fit.
Responsibilities
Obsess over customer problems and ship for velocity and impact over technical pedantry
Ship across the stack - agent, backend, infrastructure, and frontend - wherever the work is that week
Build internal agents that automate the repeatable parts of engineering and distribute them across the team
Define how AI-native engineering works at Origin: the context, permissions, and tooling our agents need to do real work
Design and operate distributed systems using AWS, EKS, Clickhouse, and Kafka against real production SLAs
Drive technical decisions on storage schemas, API contracts, and the patterns that hold up at scale in a multi-tenant environment
Work alongside research and systems-internals engineers to turn their work into reliable production software
Skills & Experience
AI-native engineering practice: prolific use of Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, with the judgment to know when an agent will go off the rails and the skill to redirect it
Track record of building data-intensive systems at scale (millions of concurrent operations, high-throughput event processing, distributed coordination)
Deep understanding of distributed systems principles: streaming, batching, backpressure, recovery, and consistency models
Performance engineering mindset: complexity analysis, profiling-driven optimization, and discipline under resource constraints
Modern systems programming experience, Rust preferred (we value problem-solving ability over specific language expertise)
Strong working fluency in Python across services, inference pipelines, and tooling
Production experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), Kubernetes (EKS or equivalent), and event streaming (Kafka or equivalent)
Comfortable working in our React frontend to deliver functionality to end users
High agency, with a track record of identifying important work and finishing it
Nice to Haves
Background in real-time monitoring or observability infrastructure (Palantir, Datadog, Honeycomb, Chronosphere, the data side of Stripe or Cloudflare)
Background in high-throughput systems (high-frequency trading, real-time telemetry, low-latency distributed systems)
Background in AI infrastructure or applied ML, particularly inference pipelines, embedding and topic systems, or agent orchestration
Prior founding-engineer or early-stage startup experience
Open-source contributions or published research in AI tooling, agent frameworks, or developer infrastructure
Data engineering experience with columnar databases or OLAP / time-series systems
Deep OS internals knowledge (Windows ETW, Apple ESF, eBPF)
Cross-platform systems expertise (Windows and macOS)

","descriptionPlain":"About Origin \n\nOrigin is building the endpoint AI observability platform https://www.originhq.com/blog/what-is-ai-observabilityfor AI-adopting organizations. We believe that organizations should not adopt AI on their endpoints without observability in place, and we want to be the platform that maximizes the productivity & safety of that adoption.\n\nThe company exists to maximize the diffusion of intelligence inside an organization, maximize the productivity of agentic systems and the humans driving them, keep agent actions traceable end-to-end so that when a user asks for something in a prompt they can verify the agent actually did what was expected, and give organizations one interface to answer the hardest questions they have about how work gets done.\n\nOur platform monitors and protects some of the most important organizations in the world. We are backed by Sequoia Capital, Brightmind Ventures, IA Ventures and other top firms.\n\n\n\nRole\n\nOrigin is hiring software engineers to help us build across our stack: the agent that collects the data, the service that makes sense of it, and the interface that presents it to customers.\n\nYou will own design and implementation from idea through release. The role demands a high degree of agency, product taste, and raw technical aptitude. You will work across all of it, from high-performance data ingestion through inference pipelines to the API design and customer-facing surfaces on top. You will be a heavy user of the product you are building, and the friction you feel in your own workflow becomes the next thing we ship for customers.\n\nThis is an AI-native engineering team: most of the code we ship is written by agents. You should already be fluent in the agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode) and able to build your own when an existing one does not fit.\n\n\n\nResponsibilities\n\n - Obsess over customer problems and ship for velocity and impact over technical pedantry\n\n - Ship across the stack - agent, backend, infrastructure, and frontend - wherever the work is that week\n\n - Build internal agents that automate the repeatable parts of engineering and distribute them across the team\n\n - Define how AI-native engineering works at Origin: the context, permissions, and tooling our agents need to do real work\n\n - Design and operate distributed systems using AWS, EKS, Clickhouse, and Kafka against real production SLAs\n\n - Drive technical decisions on storage schemas, API contracts, and the patterns that hold up at scale in a multi-tenant environment\n\n - Work alongside research and systems-internals engineers to turn their work into reliable production software\n \n \n\nSkills & Experience\n\n - AI-native engineering practice: prolific use of Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, with the judgment to know when an agent will go off the rails and the skill to redirect it\n\n - Track record of building data-intensive systems at scale (millions of concurrent operations, high-throughput event processing, distributed coordination)\n\n - Deep understanding of distributed systems principles: streaming, batching, backpressure, recovery, and consistency models\n\n - Performance engineering mindset: complexity analysis, profiling-driven optimization, and discipline under resource constraints\n\n - Modern systems programming experience, Rust preferred (we value problem-solving ability over specific language expertise)\n\n - Strong working fluency in Python across services, inference pipelines, and tooling\n\n - Production experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), Kubernetes (EKS or equivalent), and event streaming (Kafka or equivalent)\n\n - Comfortable working in our React frontend to deliver functionality to end users\n\n - High agency, with a track record of identifying important work and finishing it\n \n \n\nNice to Haves\n\n - Background in real-time monitoring or observability infrastructure (Palantir, Datadog, Honeycomb, Chronosphere, the data side of Stripe or Cloudflare)\n\n - Background in high-throughput systems (high-frequency trading, real-time telemetry, low-latency distributed systems)\n\n - Background in AI infrastructure or applied ML, particularly inference pipelines, embedding and topic systems, or agent orchestration\n\n - Prior founding-engineer or early-stage startup experience\n\n - Open-source contributions or published research in AI tooling, agent frameworks, or developer infrastructure\n\n - Data engineering experience with columnar databases or OLAP / time-series systems\n\n - Deep OS internals knowledge (Windows ETW, Apple ESF, eBPF)\n\n - Cross-platform systems expertise (Windows and macOS)\n\n\n\nWorking at Origin\n\nOrigin is a fully remote team across the US & Canada, built on trust, autonomy, and excellence.

Role
Origin is seeking a Forward Deployed Engineer to own the gap between a customer having Origin deployed and the customer realizing meaningful, expanding value from it.
This is a customer-embedded product engineering role - not a traditional Sales Engineer, Technical Account Manager, or support role. You will work directly inside customer environments, study how AI is actually being used, uncover valuable problems the customer may not yet know how to articulate, and build the first solution. You will then turn what you learn into reusable product leverage for Origin.
You will spend most of your time building: querying traces, creating signals and analytical workflows, developing integrations, prototyping new capabilities, and contributing production code when a missing capability stands between a customer and a meaningful outcome. The right person is equally credible writing a query or pull request, leading a technical working session, and explaining to an executive why the result matters.
Travel may be required for this role, up to approximately 20%.
Responsibilities
Own technical value realization for a portfolio of strategic customers, from first live data through durable adoption and expansion.
Work directly inside customer tenants and systems to understand their AI workflows, operational constraints, and most consequential problems.
Independently interrogate traces using Origin's dashboard, SQL and ClickHouse, APIs, and MCP-based tools and bring customers useful discoveries rather than waiting for them to specify what should be built.
Turn discoveries into working artifacts, such as queries, canvases, dashboards, signals, integrations, workflows, prototypes, and production code.
Lead technical discovery with customer engineers, security teams, AI platform teams, and executives, translating ambiguous business problems into tractable technical work.
Scope and deliver customer-specific solutions while exercising judgment about what should remain bespoke and what should become part of the core platform.
Design and implement custom telemetry integrations, data adapters, analytical logic, and full-stack experiences for complex customer environments.
Partner with Deployment and Engineering to remove access, integration, reliability, and rollout blockers without becoming the standing support queue.
Write clear technical specifications and contribute directly to the codebase when progress or clarity depends on it.
Establish a concrete narrative of value for every engagement: the problem observed, the evidence in the data, what was built, and the measurable change it produced.
Convert field experience into product leverage by documenting reusable patterns, identifying recurring gaps, and giving Product and Engineering evidence that can change the roadmap.
Help define the operating model, tools, and standards for Origin's growing Forward Deployed Engineering function.
Skills & Experience
At least five years of experience building and delivering production software, data systems, security products, or technically complex enterprise solutions.
Strong hands-on engineering ability across some combination of Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Rust, APIs, backend systems, data pipelines, and cloud infrastructure.
Ability to independently explore unfamiliar, high-volume datasets and find meaningful signals inside noisy operational data.
Experience working directly with demanding enterprise customers and operating credibly with both hands-on engineers and senior executives.
The ability to decompose vague, high-level problems into a sequence of technical decisions and shipped artifacts.
High agency. You naturally explore the environment, form a point of view, and act before being given a detailed task list.
Strong product judgment. You can distinguish a one-customer workaround from a reusable platform capability and synthesize feature requests into the underlying problem.
Clear, direct communication. You can run a technical room, explain complicated systems without hiding behind jargon, and connect engineering work to customer outcomes.
Sound judgment under pressure and comfort making tradeoffs between scope, speed, and quality in ambiguous production environments.
Strong follow-through. You document findings, decisions, delivered artifacts, outcomes, and product implications so the organization can learn from the work.
Genuine enthusiasm for working alongside customers. Customers trust you because you are technically useful, candid, calm, and enjoyable to work with.
Daily fluency with modern AI development tools and excitement about working at the frontier of enterprise AI adoption.
Nice to Haves
Prior experience in forward deployed engineering, technical consulting, professional services, solutions engineering, or another customer-facing role where you personally shipped the solution.
Early-stage startup experience or experience as a technical founder or early engineer who built a product from scratch.
Experience building dashboards, detections, analytical workflows, or data products on top of high-volume event or telemetry data.
Experience with enterprise identity, SSO, endpoint management, observability, SIEM/SOAR, cloud infrastructure, or security operations.
Experience with AI agents, LLM applications, evaluation systems, MCP, model gateways, or agent observability.
Operating system fundamentals across Windows and/or macOS, including processes, memory, system security mechanisms, and resource-constrained software.
Background in security operations, incident response, red teaming, or endpoint security products such as EDR/XDR platforms.
Experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure; Docker and Kubernetes and infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform.
Domain expertise in industries such as healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, supply chain, or technology.
