Solutions Engineer

Kernel is crazy fast, open source browser infrastructure for AI agents. We handle autoscaling, observability, and the messy details of web interaction, so developers can focus on what their agents do instead of how they do it.

Teams at Cash App, Rye, and 5000+ others use Kernel for deep research, QA automation, and real-time web analysis. We've raised $22M from Accel, YC, and Vercel.

If you're interested in building critical infrastructure for agents on the web, we'd love to chat.

You'll carry a technical sales motion end-to-end: running discovery, architecting solutions, and seeing customers through to production. That means you're as comfortable in a sales conversation as you are in a terminal. You'll work closely with our founders on strategic deals, help developers understand what's possible with Kernel, and design the systems that make our customers successful.

This role sits at the intersection of sales, engineering, and product. You'll influence Kernel's roadmap through direct customer feedback, serve as the primary technical point of contact for strategic accounts, and make sure customers go from demo to production without getting stuck.
