About MUTX
MUTX is building the operational layer for the agentic web.
We're developing an open-source control plane that helps teams deploy, operate, and govern AI agents as real production systems — not fragile demos. Our work sits at the intersection of backend systems, infrastructure, developer tooling, security, and product design.
We care about the unglamorous but critical parts of making autonomous software actually work in the real world: deployment, identity, secrets, observability, reliability, and control.
The Role
We're looking for a Founding Engineer who wants to build serious systems early, take real ownership, and help shape the technical foundation of the company.
This is not a narrow backend role, and it's not a "do one ticket at a time" job. You'll work across backend logic, infrastructure, product systems, debugging, reliability, internal tooling, and the seams between web, API, CLI, SDK, and operations.
You should want the kind of role where you help make key technical decisions, ship constantly, clean up messy edges, and turn strong ideas into working systems.
This is for someone who cares about how software actually behaves in production.
What You'll Work On
Build and improve core backend services, APIs, and internal platform logic
Design and tighten deployment flows, operational controls, and runtime behavior
Improve auth, permissions, secrets handling, and reliability boundaries
Work across product surfaces including the dashboard, API, CLI, SDK, and infrastructure layer
Debug ugly real-world issues across multiple layers of the system
Help define architecture, standards, and technical direction from an early stage
Make the platform more coherent, more robust, and more real every week
What We're Looking For
Strong backend ability, ideally in Python
Comfort with systems thinking, APIs, debugging, and product implementationFamiliarity with Linux, containers, developer workflows, and practical infrastructure
Good judgment around reliability, failure modes, permissions, and xivgfpx security boundaries
Ability to move fast without becoming sloppy
Clear communication and comfort working closely with a small in-person team
Genuine interest in building infrastructure for real-world AI systems
Nice to Have
FastAPI
TypeScript
React or Next.js
Terraform, K8S, Ansible
Observability, webhooks, auth flows, CI/CD
Experience building internal tools, developer tools, or platform systems
Why Join
Real ownership from the beginning
Direct influence on the product and technical direction
Work on infrastructure problems that actually matter
A chance to help build a serious open-source system for operating AI agents in production
