Don't wait for the future of infrastructure. Be part of it.
Teleport is the AI Infrastructure Identity Company. We're solving one of the hardest problems in security: giving every human, machine, workload, and AI agent a cryptographically secured identity, improving engineering velocity while maintaining security. We make trusted computing simple. This gives you the freedom, power, and autonomy to build and innovate with confidence.
Remote-first and globally distributed, we work with companies like Nasdaq, IBM, DoorDash, and Elastic to secure infrastructure for an AI world.
About Us
Teleport is the Infrastructure Identity Company, modernizing identity, access, and policy for infrastructure, improving engineering velocity and resiliency of critical infrastructure against human factors and/or compromise.
We are a fast-growing, well-funded Y-Combinator company. We value our craft, are strong supporters of work/life balance, and embrace a culture of humility, honesty, and transparency.

The Core Tooling team contributes force multiplication efforts to help engineers developing Teleport and across the org. This team is the backbone to ensuring the rest of the development team remains incredibly productive, and that we operate in the open, with an open source code base.
This team is responsible for the tooling necessary to build and release Teleport artifacts, including container images, AMIs, Helm Charts, and integration/distribution to package managers.
