We're building a new computing stack with formally verified data, memory, and resource isolation between executions for instant, truly elastic global compute. This includes designing and building a production language in a way that's never been done before, with complete, mechanized formal specifications and a certifying compiler from the start. Our immediate goals include an alternative to eBPF and building the world's first serverless networking infrastructure.
We are VC funded with runway for multiple years. The team is composed of PhDs from Stanford, UW, OSU, and Brown, advised by professors from MIT and UWaterloo.
We are currently hiring for the following positions:
We’re [0] rethinking serverless from scratch, building a new computing stack for instant, globally available, truly elastic, soundly isolated execution. We leverage formal methods and languages to build OS interfaces with low overhead, formally verified isolation without containers or VMs. Our immediate goal is a new programming language to replace eBPF and build the world's first serverless networking infrastructure.
We are a 5-person, VC-funded team with PhDs from Stanford, UW, OSU, and Brown, advised by professors from MIT and UWaterloo. We are currently hiring for the following four positions:

We're building a new computing stack for instant, globally available, truly elastic, soundly isolated execution. We’re building low overhead, formally verified isolation primitives, without containers or VMs. We're taking all of this to the network with new a programming language to replace eBPF and enable truly serverless networking infrastructure.
