About Us

MintMCP helps companies put agents to work safely. We build the infrastructure that makes a company's own work runnable by them. Our first product is an MCP gateway that gives those agents governed access to company data and tools.

Responsibilities

  • Owning features end-to-end, from conception to production, across our gateway infrastructure, enterprise deployments, and agentic systems.
  • Working with backend and infra, but not limited to these areas: building a better UI when needed, fixing connectors during security reviews, etc.
  • Using Claude and Codex as the primary working environment, and managing a fleet of agents to move faster than a team this size has any right to.
  • Shaping the problem, making architecture, product, and UX calls, hardening enterprise paths, designing connectors, protecting security-sensitive surfaces, and catching generated code that is quietly wrong.
  • Learning directly from the founders and from customers, with roles blurred and shipping within hours.

Requirements

  • A track record of shipping to real users, whether through a product, an internal tool, an open-source project, or a serious side project.
  • Strong fundamentals and the ability to learn fast, with quick pickup matters as much as years of experience.
  • Care about product value and customer needs over technical purity.
  • Comfortable across the stack (TypeScript, Python, CockroachDB), or able to pick up new languages, protocols, and domains fast.
  • Excited to build with agents, and to learn when they help and when they hide a problem.
  • Already build with AI every day and want room to move without heavy process.

Qualifications

  • Developer-facing products, protocol or gateway work, or infrastructure at scale.
  • Background in security, identity, or permission systems.
  • Contributions to open source, MCP servers, or agentic frameworks.
  • Design sensibility: engineers who care about design, designers who think about infrastructure.

Skills

  • Strong fundamentals and the ability to learn fast.
  • Comfortable across the stack (TypeScript, Python, CockroachDB).
  • Experience with AI and working with agents.
  • Understanding of security, identity, or permission systems.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation and meaningful equity.
  • Unusual scope and ownership of features that ship to enterprise customers.
  • Building and deploying agents on the same platform we sell.
  • Direct access to the founders, customer context, and product direction, with mentorship as you grow.
  • Health benefits, on a team that puts family and health first.

Pay

Competitive compensation and meaningful equity.

Schedule

We are looking for someone who can work full-time.
