Hi everyone. We are Costa, and we are building the next generation of network security.
>> who we are
At Costa, we believe in a world where it is easy to share information with good actors, and easy to protect it from bad ones. And we need help from great people to get there.
Our founding team has gone from garage to IPO before. We have experience at big companies (Amazon/Meta) and small. We are remote today, but have a preference for people near us (Bay Area/Chicago). We may not be fully remote in the future. We are early in our journey. We are backed by some great VCs. Now is an exciting time to join.
>> what we do
We are building an infrastructure as code network security platform that runs everywhere. We help our customers easily move their compute between clouds, data centers, the edge by making networking and security understandable, repeatable and seamless.
Our first product gives network and security teams a single, seamless interface to deploy, configure and manage complex hybrid overlay networks and security services running within those networks.
>> seeking great people
We are hiring our first product engineers. We are built on a modern stack: Ruby/Rails + StimulusJS, Golang, Python, Docker, Terraform, Packer and Wireguard. We are looking for backend, frontend and SRE/Devops engineers. Ideally people are familiar with networking and security concepts. Help build our engineering culture, one that embraces mutual respect, shared responsibility and continuous curiosity, and prizes an intellectual honesty that fosters both confidence and humility.
- Lead Platform Engineer - Design and build the Costa Platform Control Plane (Rails+). The Control Plane is responsible for deploying, scaling and managing a distributed mesh of software defined networking (SDN) controllers
- Product Engineer - focus on dev & client tools - build out our CLI in Golang, API SDKs etc.
- Devops Engineer - Build out our infra deployment automation and work with the lead platform engineer for the deployment functionality of our control plane
If you are interested in protecting information and want to be part of a dynamic team that enjoys working together to build something great, we invite you to apply.

AI systems struggle with edge cases and understanding local context despite increasing model sizes. From our research at UC Berkeley into the evolution of intelligence from simple organisms, we’ve discovered the missing link is continuous learning (deep learning is pre-trained by design). Models built with our framework learn through customizable parameters similar to animal instincts, allowing for AI grounded with built-in memory and reasoning. We're a community of 160+ developers and researchers building general intelligence from the bottom-up from places like Berkeley, NYU, Imperial College, and Google.
We're building way outside of the current paradigm and we're looking for collaborators at all levels --hackers, contributors, the curious-- as we'll be making our first hires soon. Reach out: ali at aolabs.ai
