About Beltic

Beltic is building the trust layer for the next generation of AI agents.

As AI agents increasingly act on behalf of humans, businesses need a reliable way to verify who is behind an agent, what permissions it has, and whether it can be trusted. Our mission is to create the identity infrastructure that enables organizations to safely interact with autonomous agents.

This is an opportunity to join at an early stage and work directly with company leadership to define and build a completely new product category.

Responsibilities

🤓 As a Senior Software Engineer, the company expects you to perform the following tasks.

  • Design and build an agent identity platform from the ground up.
  • Develop systems for issuing, verifying, and revoking digital credentials.
  • Build secure APIs that allow third-party organizations to integrate identity verification workflows.
  • Create delegation and authorization systems that define what agents can do on behalf of users.
  • Design auditability, compliance, and trust mechanisms for agent interactions.
  • Contribute to the architecture and technical direction of a greenfield product.
  • Collaborate closely with leadership to shape the future of agent identity standards.

  • Solid knowledge of cryptography fundamentals, including key management, signing, verification, and secure storage practices.
  • Experience working in startup environments or building products from scratch.

  • Experience with Verifiable Credentials (VCs) and Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs).
  • Familiarity with W3C identity standards and decentralized identity ecosystems.
  • Experience implementing OpenID4VC, SD-JWT, MCP-I, or similar identity protocols.
