About the role
Perl 5, Go and Node, on a privacy-first search engine and browser. Perl in a 2026 job posting is a fair signal of a long-lived, real system rather than a rewrite-every-two-years codebase. Recent projects include adding AI-assisted answers to search without compromising the privacy model, improving Duck.ai, and building data processing pipelines that keep search relevance up.
Worldwide remote, up to a published ceiling, with mentoring expected over time. Around 300 people, remote-first. The privacy constraint is the interesting engineering problem: doing all of this without the data everyone else assumes they have.
