Software Engineer, Simulation
About the role
We’re looking for an experienced fullstack engineer to help build out our new Simulation product. Simulation is a small, fast-moving team inside Doppel (a Series C company backed by Bessemer and a16z) building an entirely new product line—think of it as a startup within a startup. We crossed six figures within a few months of launching and are on track to hit 1M ARR in Q4.
Our mission: to help companies proactively defend against the next wave of social-engineering attacks. We’re creating AI-powered phishing simulations that use large-language models and voice synthesis to mimic real-world threats—from hyper-personalized emails to high-fidelity “manager calls” that test and train enterprise security teams. You’ll be joining a team led by ex-Meta and YC founders, already working with Fortune 100 customers. It’s the rare mix of startup-level growth and creativity with established-company backing and stability.
Responsibilities
- Build out a “Cursor for phishing simulation” flow that lets users create simulations using natural language
- Build out voice deepfakes that use AI to call employees pretending to be their co-worker
