Go backAbout kAIgentic
kAIgentic is building the intelligence layer for the world’s most ambitious enterprises. Headquartered in Singapore with teams in India and Japan, we help large organizations evolve as fast as technology itself by turning the tacit know-how locked inside their people into safe, governed, AI-powered operations.
The hardest part of enterprise transformation is not strategy. It is execution. Institutional knowledge lives in people’s heads, systems are fragmented, and risk tolerance is low. kAIgentic captures how work actually happens, designs better workflows, and runs them inside an intelligence layer that is observable, auditable, and engineered for the most regulated environments on earth. The outcome is an enterprise that continuously improves.
We are backed by SMBC Group as our founding partner and customer zero, and our platform is already being proven inside one of the most complex, regulated operating environments in the world. That means real problems, real data, and real production impact from Day 1.
The Role
As a Senior Software Engineer on the Security & Compliance team, you will own critical security systems that enable kAIgentic to serve global financial institutions. You’ll design and implement bank-grade data isolation,build comprehensive audit infrastructure, and ensure our agentic AI platform meets stringent regulatory requirements.
What You’ll Do
- Design and implement multitenant data isolation ensuring strict separation between legal entities (e.g.,SMBC Japan vs SMBC UK)
- Build hierarchical access control systems where Compliance Groups have different scopes than Finance Groups within the same entity
- Develop immutable audit trail systems that capture every agentic action with full context; implement tenant-aware encryption with tenant-level key management
- Create scoped logging infrastructure where Regional Auditors can query across entities but Local Managers cannot
- Build security monitoring and alerting for anomaly detection; conduct security reviews and threat modeling for new features
- Support SOC2, ISO 27001, and banking-specific compliance requirements; drive AI-native development practices for security tooling and automation
What You’ll Bring
- 4+ years of experience in security engineering or secure software development; expert AI-native development capability (mandatory)
- Strong proficiency in Go and/or Python; deep expertise in 2-3 of the following:
- Multitenant SaaS security architecture; access control systems (RBAC, ABAC, hierarchical permissions)
- Cryptography and key management systems; audit logging and compliance infrastructure
- Cloud security (Kubernetes hardening, network policies, IAM); security monitoring and incident response; familiarity with compliance frameworks (SOC2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS)
- Experience working with regulated industries (finance, healthcare) preferred; strong security mindset and attention to detail

Life at kAIgentic
- Intelligence layer at the core. You will be building the substrate that turns institutional knowledge into governed, production-grade operations. This is not a wrapper on a model. It is enterprise infrastructure with real consequences.

- Ownership from Day One. Your work directly shapes the product, the culture, and the outcomes our customers see.
- Learning and growth. You will work alongside seasoned leaders from leading enterprises who have built and scaled global businesses.
