We power internal agents across government, Fortune 500, frontier labs and hyper-growth startups. Teams use our configurable primitives such as evals, observability, router, authentication, permissions, sandboxes, harnesses and more to deploy internal agents at scale securely. We support 8+ harness and 50+ models, including sovereign deployments. Launches Take a look at some of our previous launches to get an idea of what we’re working on: - Brainbase platform: https://brainbaselabs.com/blog/brainbase-is-now-ga - Universal Managed Agents API: https://brainbaselabs.com/blog/universal-managed-agents - Universal Agent Protocol (UAP) (open-source): [universalagentprotocol.io](http://universalagentprotocol.io) ## About the role Brainbase’s infrastructure consists of a lot of different services for our primitives. These services need to be containerized to run on different environments including our managed cloud, AWS/Azure/GCP and sovereign on-premise deployments, with low latency and high reliability. Some of these services look like Docker containers (e.g. authentication service) while some of them are more complex to control and scale (e.g. sandboxes). You would primarily be contributing to building and improving these infrastructural components. ## About Brainbase Labs ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Brainbase Labs builds an enterprise-grade AI agent cloud that lets businesses create, deploy, and scale AI workers for sales, support, and operations. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage, Y Combinator Winter 2024 batch) - **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States - **Founded**: 2024 (Y Combinator listing); some sources list 2023 [linkedin.com](https://www.linkedin.com/company/usebrainbase) - **Founders**: Gokhan Egri (CEO), Adithya Mahesh (Founding GTM), Luke Mariani (Founding SDR), Abhinav Tumu (Head of Engineering) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: AI infrastructure / Enterprise automation - **Target customers**: B2B – enterprise, government, and SMB teams needing custom AI agents - **Mission or purpose statement**: “The AI Labor Company” – enabling every business to build an AI workforce that works alongside human teams [ycombinator.com](https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/brainbase-labs) ## Products & Services - **[Brainbase AI Agent Cloud](https://brainbaselabs.com/)**: A platform for hosting, scaling, and managing AI agents.
