Job Description

Kepler: AI you can trust and verify.

Every AI tool has the same flaw: the model touches the data. It guesses numbers, fabricates sources, and gives you a different answer every time you ask. For the people making million-dollar decisions, that's not a feature gap. It's a dealbreaker.

We built the architecture that makes hallucination structurally impossible. AI interprets your intent. Deterministic code retrieves every figure from source documents. The model never produces a number, so it can't get one wrong. Every output traces to a filing, a page, a line item. Every calculation shows its formula. Every answer is defensible.

Live in production. 950K+ SEC filings. 14K+ companies. 40M+ documents. 27 global markets. Trusted by firms that don't get to be wrong.

The architecture is domain-independent. Finance is first because the pain is sharpest. Healthcare, legal, insurance are next. Same system, new data sources. We're not building a finance product. We're building the verification layer for the entire AI stack.

Founded by Vinoo Ganesh (7 yrs Palantir, Head of Business Engineering at Citadel) and Dr. John McRaven (11 yrs Palantir, created the analytics engine behind $100M+ contracts with BP and Airbus, Ph.D. Physics). Backed by the founders of OpenAI, Facebook AI Research, MotherDuck, dbt, and Outerbounds.

Our Operating Principles

  • Forward-Deployed with Product DNA: We own customer outcomes while building a product company. That means embedding, iterating, and deploying where our customers are. We don't win if they don't win.

  • Extreme Ownership: Big vision, shared ownership. If you notice a problem, you own it. Authority comes from initiative, not job titles. Once you step up, you're accountable for the outcome.

  • Production-First Engineering: We design for critical workloads from day one. Durable execution, blue/green deploys, automated rollbacks, continuous delivery with end-to-end observability. Every change lands safely and stays resilient under real-world load.

  • Trust as the Default: People do their best work when confidence is mutual. We show our work, keep our promises, and flag risks before they bite. Trust isn't an aspiration. It's the baseline.

  • Keep Raising the Bar: We block time for training, code-health sprints, and deep-dive tech talks. A sharper team and a cleaner stack pay compounding dividends. Continuous learning isn't a perk. It's part of the job.

Kepler is an Equal Opportunity Employer and prohibits discrimination and harassment of any kind. We are committed to the principle of equal employment opportunity for all employees and to providing employees with a work environment free of discrimination and harassment.
