What's It Like to Work at Kepler ?

In one memorable line, how would you describe day-to-day satisfaction on your team?

Hard problems, shipped in days, with people I'd choose to be around.

Would you recommend working here — and what proof backs that up? 

Yes, and the proof I trust most is who keeps showing up. A good chunk of this team worked together at Palantir and chose to do it again here; people who could work almost anywhere, picking the same room twice. Hiring runs heavily on personal referral, which only happens when people will put their own name behind the place. We're too small for a formal eNPS, but the honest version is the engineers here turned down easier, better-paid options to build something they think matters and they're still here.

How are you perceived externally right now and what signals support that?

The clearest signal is inbound pull. Anthropic published a piece on how we built Kepler, they don't do that for model-wrappers and respected buy-side names came to us. And it's spreading past finance; people in other industries saw the same trust problem and asked if we could point the platform at theirs. We're becoming the team known for making AI outputs verifiable and it's landing before we've chased anything.
