About Glean:
Glean is the Work AI platform that helps everyone work smarter with AI. What began as the industrys most advanced enterprise search has evolved into a full-scale Work AI ecosystem powering intelligent Search an AI Assistant and scalable AI agents on one secure open platform. With over 100 enterprise SaaS connectors flexible LLM choice and robust APIs Glean gives organizations the infrastructure to govern scale and customize AI across their entire business - without vendor lock-in or costly implementation cycles.
At its core Glean is redefining how enterprises find use and act on knowledge. Its Enterprise Graph and Personal Knowledge Graph map the relationships between people content and activity delivering deeply personalized context-aware responses for every employee. This foundation powers Gleans agentic capabilities - AI agents that automate real work across teams by accessing the industrys broadest range of data: enterprise and world structured and unstructured historical and real-time. The result: measurable business impact through faster onboarding hours of productivity gained each week and smarter safer decisions at every level.
Recognized by Fast Company as one of the Worlds Most Innovative Companies (Top 10 2025) by CNBCs Disruptor 50 Bloombergs AI Startups to Watch (2026) Forbes AI 50 and Gartners Tech Innovators in Agentic AI Glean continues to accelerate its global impact. With customers across 50 industries and 1000 employees in more than 25 countries were helping the worlds largest organizations make every employee AI-fluent and turning the superintelligent enterprise from concept into reality.
If youre excited to shape how the world works youll help build systems used daily across Microsoft Teams Zoom ServiceNow Zendesk GitHub and many more - deeply embedded where people get things done. Youll ship agentic capabilities on an open extensible stack with the craft and care required for enterprise trust as we bring Work AI to every employee in every company.

Glean is seeking creative engineers to build theDeveloper Platform that external and internal developers rely on to extend Glean. Our team owns the developer experience endtoend: standards and tooling for REST APIs SDKs and client libraries agent SDKs and integrations and the infrastructure and docs that make it easy to build on a rapidly growing startup this means working across multiple layers of the stack backend services developer tools SDKs and docs and partnering closely with product security SRE and other engineering teams. Youll spend most of your time in Go Python and TypeScript building the foundations that power integrations agents and custom applications while also helping define what great looks like for APIs and developer experience across Glean.

- Shape and improve the developer experience on by contributing to documentation quickstarts reference material migration guides and changelogs.
- Work closely with product managers solutions engineers and other product teams to understand realworld developer and partner use cases support escalations when needed and turn those learnings into improvements in standards tooling and SDKs.
- Mentor more junior engineers or learn from battletested ones depending on your experience and interests.

- Building agent or integration tooling (IDEs agents workflows plugins)
- Working with REST APIs and schemabased definitions like OpenAPI
- Designing or integrating OAuth2/OIDC and related auth flows.
