Senior Platform Vector Database Engineer

Join AUTHEO as an Equity Co-Founder leading the development of a planetary‑scale encrypted vector database.

We are building a platform redefining decentralized computation, delivering sub‑microsecond execution speeds, billions of transactions per second throughput, and mathematically proven security.

You will own the encrypted vector database powering all RAG/KAG retrieval, agent memory, semantic search, and AI inference—delivering 0.4 µs encrypted ANN queries at 1 B+ QPS, 1 trillion+ vectors, full FHE + zk‑proof results, ε=0.5 differential privacy, and 80 % compression across 10,000+ DePIN shards.

• Ship a production vector engine achieving 0.4 µs encrypted k‑NN/HNSW search at 1 B+ QPS.
• Build DAG‑backed clustering and topological similarity search with zero redundancy.
• Embed CKKS/BFV fully homomorphic encryption for exact search on encrypted embeddings.
• Implement zk‑proof vector search returning 1–5 ms validity proofs for each result.
• Deploy dynamic sharding of 1 trillion+ vectors across 10,000+ global nodes.
• Integrate SGX/Trust Zone enclaves for 1 TB+ encrypted vector storage with remote attestation.
• Ship 80 % lossless vector quantization/compression preserving post‑quantum security.
• Deliver zero‑config vector SDKs (Rust/Go/Python) with built‑in encryption and proof generation.
• Drive GPU‑native ANN graphs and AI‑driven index rebuild prediction.

• Publish encrypted vector search and zk‑retrieval breakthroughs at NeurIPS, SIGIR, KDD, ICML.
• Keynote at Vector
  
  DB Con 2026 on “1 Billion Encrypted Vector Queries/sec at 0.4 µs”.

• 8+ years building production vector databases (Milvus, Pinecone, FAISS, Weavi, Qdrant).
• Multiple deployments storing ≥100 billion vectors with ≥100 M QPS.
• Hands‑on FHE or zk‑proof integration into ANN search engines.
• Deep expertise in HNSW, IVF‑PQ, disk
  
  ANN, sharding, and GPU‑accelerated indexing.
• Proven exabyte‑scale vector durability and consistency systems.

• Core contributor to Milvus, FAISS, or open‑source vector engines.
• First‑author papers at top IR/ML venues.
• Patents in encrypted similarity search, zk‑vector proofs, or vector compression.

• Production vector cluster delivering 0.4 µs encrypted search at 500 M+ QPS.
• Live FHE‑encrypted index with exact k‑NN on encrypted data.
• zk‑proof search layer proving results in 1–5 ms.
• Dynamic sharding live across 5,000+ DePIN nodes.
• 80 % compression pipeline preserving security.
• Open‑source Rust vector SDK with ≥1,500 stars.
• Accepted paper and keynote at Vector
  
  DB Con 2026.
