Job description

Noru is building the trust and resilience layer for IT-driven companies, turning the complex, costly, and static world of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) into a living, continuous, and automated system. Our Vision is to empower every company to operate securely, resiliently, and with trust — by design.

We have already secured our first customers — even pre-launch, with strong demand and real-world validation of our approach. The market is shifting fast, and Noru is at the center of that transformation.

We are now hiring a Software Engineer — a rare opportunity to join the core team and take complete technical ownership of the platform and the AI intelligence layer. This role is for a builder, not a theorist: someone who turns ambiguity into production systems and learns by doing.

Tasks

As a Software Engineer, you will have end-to-end responsibility for the most critical technical components of the Noru platform. Your main responsibilities and typical tasks will include:

• Architect & Productionize Core AI: Design, build, and deploy our primary AI systems and LLM workflows that ingest vast amounts of corporate data (logs, configurations, policies) to perform continuous security and trust validation.
• Foundational Platform Decisions: Establish the core technical architecture (data models, infrastructure, services) that ensures maximum scalability, security, and low-latency performance for real-time GRC monitoring.
• Full-Stack Engineering: Own the implementation across the entire stack—from developing robust data ingestion pipelines in the backend to designing intuitive user interfaces in the front-end that present continuous trust insights.
• System Integration: Develop secure, reliable integration frameworks to connect Noru with diverse enterprise systems (SSO, cloud environments, version control, ticketing systems) to establish a truly "living" GRC platform.
• Pioneering Automation: Translate complex security and compliance standards (e.g., ISO, SOC 2) into elegant, automated, and continuously running validation logic, fulfilling our mission to prove compliance automatically.
• Shape the Product With Us: Work closely with the founders and early customers to rapidly iterate based on feedback and emerging needs.

Requirements

We prioritize talent, drive, and demonstrated ability over years of experience. We seek an engineer with exceptional intelligence, high agency, and the "hungry" ambition to build difficult things that matter.

You likely demonstrate this through a combination of the following:

• Proven Track Record: You have a history of successfully building, shipping, and scaling complex software systems, evidenced by strong professional experience, impactful personal projects, or an elite academic background.
• AI/LLM Proficiency: Direct, hands‑on experience building production-grade, data‑driven applications utilizing large language models (LLMs), natural language processing (NLP), or complex data processing pipelines.
• First-Principles Thinking: You are a critical and rapid learner who doesn't wait for specifications. You can identify ambiguous business problems, design robust technical solutions from the ground up, and execute independently.
• Technical Fluency: Comfort and proficiency with modern, full-stack development, and experience with modern cloud environments (GCP, AWS, or Azure).
• Domain Passion: A deep interest in cybersecurity, IT resilience, compliance (GRC), or a rapid willingness to master this complex and crucial domain.

Benefits

Working as a Software Engineer at Noru is about maximizing your impact and accelerating your career trajectory:

• Founding Equity: Meaningful option package aligned with Noru’s long‑term success.
• Clear Path to Leadership: This role is the clear and immediate path to becoming our Head of Engineering, VP of Engineering or even CTO as we scale, with massive organizational responsibility.
• Build the Future Stack: The opportunity to make all foundational technical decisions with a clean slate, free from legacy debt.
• Meaningful Mission: Build a product that genuinely helps companies reduce risk, increase resilience, and build stronger, verifiable trust with their customers and partners.
• Elite Team & Mentorship: Direct collaboration with founders who prioritize technical excellence and high-performance culture.
