C1.aiis building a horizontal identity platform Identity is becoming the control plane for modern companies. Every organization runs on dozens-sometimes hundreds-of systems that need to answer the same basic question: who can do what, when, and why? The old approach doesn’t hold up. It’s either IT teams duct-taping systems together, or rigid IGA tools that only work across a narrow set of HR and SSO integrations. That’s not going to cut it for the next decade. We’re building something more foundational: a horizontal identity platform that any company-and increasingly, any AI agent-can plug into to understand and manage access. SaaS apps, infrastructure, internal tools, AI agents-if it has a concept of “who,” it should connect to us. We’re still small, and we move fast. If you want to help build this from the ground up, you’ll have real ownership here. How engineering works here We don’t hire into narrow roles-we hire strong engineers. Most work comes from a shared pool of high-impact projects, and we assign it based on where it matters most.
