Shape how defense intelligence meets the world
Glemad builds autonomous defense systems designed to be auditable, reliable, and accountable. We are researchers, engineers, and operators from a range of disciplines, working to make sure advanced intelligence strengthens security for everyone. If you are drawn to hard problems with real stakes, we would like to meet you.
Principles that guide how we show up
These values shape how we work together, how we evaluate trade-offs, and how we support the people and systems that depend on us.
Design for accountability
Every system we build must be explainable, auditable, and reversible. If an operator cannot understand why a decision was made, the system is not ready for deployment.
Measure real security outcomes
We are not interested in metrics that look good on slides. We judge our work by whether it reduces incident response time, limits blast radius, and lowers risk in production environments.
Assume the adversary is creative
We respect the intelligence of those who seek to do harm. That means we red-team constantly, plan for failure, and build systems that degrade gracefully rather than fail silently.
Publish what we learn
Security improves when knowledge is shared. We commit to publishing research, methodologies, and findings, especially the ones that make us uncomfortable, so the broader community can learn alongside us.
Keep the human in command
Autonomy is a tool, not a replacement for judgment. We design clear escalation paths, override mechanisms, and human review loops into every product we ship.
Move carefully and build things
We believe in deliberate speed. We would rather ship something robust slowly than something fragile quickly. Security infrastructure does not forgive corner-cutting.
Own the mission together
No one at Glemad is a bystander. Whether you are writing code, reviewing contracts, or talking to customers, you share responsibility for making autonomous defense worthy of the world's trust.

How we hire
Our interview process is designed to find thoughtful people with diverse expertise. Here is what to expect.
We care about what you can do, not where you learned to do it
About half our technical staff had no prior ML experience; about half have advanced degrees, but plenty of brilliant colleagues never went to college. If you have done interesting independent research, written a thoughtful blog post, or contributed to open source, put that at the top of your resume.
Engineers do research, researchers do engineering
If you have an engineering background, apply as an engineer. You will perform better in the interviews, and you will have as much input into Glemad's direction as anyone else. All our publications include engineers as authors.
For non-technical roles
We are looking for people who bring clarity, judgment, and a genuine interest in the mission. Our policy, operations, and business teams are small and high-impact. You will shape how we work, not just execute on a playbook.
Conversations, not interrogations
All interviews are conversational. We want to understand how you think through problems and what draws you to this work. You will have time to ask us about Glemad too. We want this to be a two-way conversation.
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer internships?
We do not currently offer internships, but we are open to exceptional early-career candidates for full-time roles.
Can I apply to more than one role?
Yes. Apply to the role that best matches your skills. If we think you are a better fit elsewhere, we will let you know.
How should I prepare for technical interviews?
Be comfortable with basic syntax and standard libraries. We use live coding tools and you can look things up. We will also ask about your experience and what motivates you.
Do you sponsor visas?
Yes. We sponsor visas and work authorization for eligible roles.
What is your remote work policy?
We have offices in select locations and support flexible arrangements. Most staff come into the office regularly, and we can be flexible during transition periods.
Can I reapply if I was not selected?
Yes. You are welcome to re-apply after 12 months, or sooner if something materially changes about your experience or skills.
Open roles
We are always looking for people who want to work on hard problems with real impact. If you do not see a perfect match but believe you can contribute, reach out anyway.
