## **About Asymptote**
[Asymptote](https://asymptotelabs.ai/) is building the **AI Detection & Response layer for the agentic enterprise**. AI agents are becoming enterprise infrastructure, but security teams have no unified system of record for what they're doing.
Asymptote delivers the telemetry, detection, and response layer that makes AI agent activity observable and secure. [**Beacon**](https://github.com/Asymptote-Labs/agent-beacon/tree/main) is our open-source foundation powering that future. It was named one of [the hottest open source cybersecurity tools](https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2026/06/30/hottest-cybersecurity-open-source-tools-of-the-month-june-2026/) in June 2026.
## **The role**
We're looking for our **Founding Developer Relations Lead** to help build the defining open-source community in AI agent security.
**We're looking for a rare profile: an exceptional engineer who loves open source as much as they love people.** Someone who loves contributing to open source, building in public, engaging with developers, and growing technical communities. If you get as much energy from shipping code as you do from speaking at meetups, helping users, and bringing people together, you'll thrive here.
This isn't a traditional DevRel role. You'll help drive adoption of Beacon, contribute directly to our open-source ecosystem, and become one of the leading voices in AI agent security. Working directly with Asymptote's founders, you'll shape our developer strategy, influence product direction, and help establish Beacon as the open standard for AI agent telemetry. You'll have exceptional autonomy and ownership from day one.

### **Influence Product**
- Gather feedback from developers, security teams, and design partners.
