Job description

Red Points is the most widely used solution to recover digital revenue. Over 1.300 companies rely on our platform to fight counterfeits, piracy, impersonation, and distribution abuse. They leverage Red Points to take back the revenue that’s rightfully theirs. With 270+ professionals and offices in New York, Barcelona, Beijing, and Salt Lake City, Red Points has disrupted an industry traditionally led by service providers with a scalable, cost-effective solution.

Be part of the change: join us on our mission to make the Internet a safer place!

The Role

Red Points protects more than 1,300 brands from counterfeits, piracy and online impersonation, using AI to find and remove infringements at scale. Attackers now use AI too. They clone executives’ faces and voices, spin up fake stores and scam ads in minutes, and try to change what AI assistants say about brands. We’re building a new intrapreneurial team to define and launch new prototypes that fight back: AI against AI.

You’ll be a founding member of this team, with C-level reporting. You’ll own the technical side:

• researching what’s feasible
• building prototypes fast
• be a part of market launch and validation

Your day-to-day here

• Turn product ideas into working prototypes in days, using AI-assisted development (Claude Code, Cursor or similar) and language, vision and voice models.
• Run prototypes on real data, so every demo shows a prospect their own problem, not a mock-up.
• Check the technical feasibility of each new idea and sum it up in a short go/no-go note: data sources, platform APIs and their terms, model options, accuracy, and cost per check.
• Explore opportunities to build, partner or license.
• Join technical stakeholder conversations on design, functionality, data and security.

Qualifications

Requirements

• 4+ years in product or engineering software teams, including recent hands‑on work shipping products on top of large language models (agents, tool use, retrieval, evaluations).
• Daily, fluent use of AI coding tools, and the judgement to tell when code is good enough
• Experience working with third-party APIs and messy data sources.
• Basics on data security, privacy and GDPR.
• Comfortable with short cycles and dropping your own prototypes when the data says so.
• Great communication skills in English, written and spoken. Spanish is a plus.

Nice to have

• Background in cybersecurity, fraud, threat intelligence, trust & safety or brand protection.
• Experience with image, video or audio models, deepfake detection or adversarial machine learning.
• A 0-to-1 track record: a startup, a side project with real users, or a product you launched inside a company.

Additional Information

What we offer

• A friendly, diverse, and international team
• You’ll have top-notch Private Health Insurance, fully covered by the company.
• 23 working days of holidays per year, plus the local public holidays.
