We're building the ground truth platform for AI.
Generic tools hallucinate data, confabulate reports, and don't show their work. We made accuracy the only possible outcome: every answer traces to its source, every calculation is reproducible, every insight is defensible. We're starting in finance and building the foundational data layer for anywhere decisions depend on trustworthy data.
Kepler was founded by two Palantir veterans (20 years combined) who built core parts of Gotham and Foundry, created Palantir Quiver (the analytics engine behind $100M+ deals with BP and Airbus), led major DoD projects, and served as Head of Business Engineering at Citadel.
Kepler is backed by founders of OpenAI, Facebook AI, MotherDuck, dbt, Outerbounds, and others.
You'll be directly mentored by engineers who built Palantir's core systems. Expect:
Weekly 1:1s with senior engineers who've architected enterprise-scale distributed systems
Deep architectural reviews and guidance on agent system design
Clear growth path toward technical leadership and system ownership
Learn by building—production agentic systems that power real financial research
At Keru, mentorship accelerates strong systems engineers into exceptional technical leaders.

Forward-Deployed with Product DNA: We own customer outcomes while building a product company. That means embedding, iterating, and deploying where our customers are. We don't win if they don't win.
Extreme Ownership: Big vision, shared ownership. If you notice a problem, you own it. Authority comes from initiative, not job titles. Once you step up, you're accountable for the outcome.
Production-First Engineering: We design for critical workloads from day one. Durable execution, blue/green deploys, automated rollbacks, continuous delivery with end-to-end observability. Every change lands safely and stays resilient under real-world load.
Trust as the Default: People do their best work when confidence is mutual. We show our work, keep our promises, and flag risks before they bite. Trust isn't an aspiration. It's the baseline.
Keep Raising the Bar: We block time for training, code-health sprints, and deep-dive tech talks. A sharper team and a cleaner stack pay compounding dividends. Continuous learning isn't a perk. It's part of the job.
