About Autheo
With nearly 100 equity cofounders from leading companies and institutions—many with advanced degrees and PhDs—Autheo is solving the critical challenges blocking business adoption of blockchain technology.
Key Features:
Traction (Testnet Launch):
Compensation & Growth Path
This is a part time equity / token-based cofounder opportunity. You will receive equity in Launch Legends, Autheo, and the WFO Creator Network, along with token allocations in the Autheo blockchain. We have already completed an initial financing round to support infrastructure and marketing, and are currently in discussions with VCs and crypto investors to fund expansion and salaries. Salaried compensation is expected to begin within 4 to 5 months, following our node, token sales or funding.
ROLE: Senior Platform Vector Database Engineer
About the Role
We are seeking an exceptional Senior Platform Vector Database Engineer to join our pioneering team as an Equity Co-Founder at the forefront of native blockchain execution. At Autheo, we are building the platform that redefines decentralized computation, delivering sub-microsecond execution speeds, billions of transactions per second throughput, and mathematically proven security against adversaries.
You will own the planetary-scale encrypted vector database that powers 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.
Key Responsibilities
• Ship production vector engine hitting 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 every result
• Deploy dynamic sharding of 1 trillion+ vectors across 10,000+ global nodes
• Integrate SGX/TrustZone 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
Research, Innovation & Thought Leadership
• Publish encrypted vector search and zk-retrieval breakthroughs at NeurIPS, SIGIR, KDD, ICML
• Keynote at VectorDB Con 2026 on “1 Billion Encrypted Vector Queries/sec at 0.4 μs”
Requirements – Must Have
• 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, diskANN, sharding, and GPU-accelerated indexing
• Proven exabyte-scale vector durability and consistency systems
Nice to Have
• 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
First 90-Day Deliverables
• 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 → 1,500+ stars
• Accepted paper + keynote at VectorDB Con 2026
Top candidates: 6-hour live vector engine design + Rust implementation session building encrypted HNSW from scratch.
