职位要求 / 描述

About the Company: Tools for Humanity (TFH) designs and builds technology behind World. World is building a real human network designed to accelerate people in the age of AI. As bots and autonomous agents reshape the internet, people, institutions, and applications need a trusted way to confirm who is a real human while preserving privacy. The TFH and World tech stacks make this possible: the Orb verifies real, unique people, World ID proves it privately, and World App puts these capabilities, and more, in people’s hands. Together, they add a human layer to an AI-driven internet. World is already running at a global scale. More than 17 million people across 160 countries have verified with World ID, and more new Orb verifications take place each week. World App is already among the most used wallets globally. Developers are integrating World ID to build safer online experiences and create spaces where real people can participate, earn, and be recognized in ways AI simply can’t replicate. Founded in 2019, TFH has more than 400 people across hardware, software, AI, cryptography, mobile engineering, and global operations. Our teams come from OpenAI, Tesla, SpaceX, Apple, Google, Stripe, Meta, Coinbase, Palantir and MIT Media Lab. We’re backed by leading investors, including a16z, Khosla Ventures, Bain Capital Crypto, Blockchain Capital, Variant, Tiger Global, and Coinbase Ventures, as well as prominent operators and founders across fintech and AI. TFH and World have been featured on the cover of TIME Magazine https://time.com/7288387/sam-altman-orb-tools-for-humanity/, highlighted in Fast Company’s https://www.fastcompany.com/91411606/fintech-blockchain-next-big-things-in-tech-2025 Next 5 in Fintech, and explored in a Bloomberg deep dive https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2024-08-12/how-worldcoin-is-building-digital-ids-to-combat-the-ai-apocalypse.

This opportunity would be with Tools for Humanity ABOUT THE AI & BIOMETRICS TEAM: The AI & Biometrics team is building a biometric recognition system that can work reliably with more than a billion users and enables them to claim their free share of WLD. We use cutting-edge machine learning models deployed on custom hardware to enable high-quality image acquisition, identification, and fraud prevention, all while requiring minimal user interaction. We are building a biometric recognition and fraud detection engine that works on the 1bn people scale. Therefore, its performance needs to out-perform all the current recognition technologies. We leverage our powerful custom-made iris recognition and presentation attack detection device, the Orb, combined with the latest research from the field of AI and Deep Learning. ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY: You will join a high-impact team that maintains and evolves the data platform powering our AI pipelines. This is an all-rounder role that combines backend development, data engineering, infrastructure, and lightweight frontend work. Your work will span the ingestion layer, transformation workflows, and the warehouse itself: designing resilient pipelines, building secure APIs, and creating services that make our datasets reliable, discoverable, and ready for large-scale training. You will also play a key role in rearchitecting existing systems into generic, reusable components, moving away from point solutions toward a data collection platform th
