Kanary
Full Stack Engineer | Remote (US)
hn · Remote (US)
Jose is a strong technical match with 12 years of shipping production systems, extensive Python/FastAPI and TypeScript/React expertise, and proven experience building complex data pipelines and AI agents. His background includes web scraping (ecommerce data warehouse, ad performance data integration), security-focused infrastructure work (emergency response systems, geospatial analysis), and hands-on full-stack development. The primary gap is explicit security tooling or adversarial/threat research experience, though his emergency response and data infrastructure background suggests capability in this domain.
Hook: Your founding engineer background building production AI systems at scale and designing data pipelines maps directly to Kanary's need for engineers comfortable with scraping, security workflows, and LLM agents.
Missing: explicit security tooling experience, threat intelligence or adversarial domain knowledge, web scraping frameworks (specific tools like Scrapy), social platform API integration experience

Kanary | Full Stack Engineer | Remote (US) | Competitive Salary + Equity + Benefits | Python / React Kanary is a personal security platform that monitors the web to identify and reduce risk based on an individual's threat model. We've been building since 2020, started in campaign security and data science, backed by Mozilla and Y Combinator. We have 200+ organizations on the platform and are funded by our customers. Attackers have never had better tools. LLMs, social media, and search surface personal data in new ways. A few prompts can launch a deepfake and impersonation campaign. Risk sources appear and disappear across social platforms, telegram chats, and private data broker platforms. Kanary exists to play the cat and mouse game for people at the speed and scale of an agentic internet. Kanary is a combination of software workflows (crawling, scraping, automation), AI (data classification, research, code generation), and people (analysts trained to support customers and escalate). This is an exciting opportunity for those who are interested in building systems and agents to solve hard and often adversarial problems. We’re growing our team, and seeking a multifaceted engineer (2+ years experience). We’re looking for engineers with web scraping, data pipelines, or security tooling experience. Experience with Python/Django, Typescript, React, and LLM APIs is a plus. Must be authorized to work in the US. Email steven@kanary.com with something you've built and why it was hard. Also be sure to include the keyword I’ve put in my HN profile. Learn more here: https://www.kanary.com/join-the-team#senior-software-engineer
