About Us

Opaque Systems is a data privacy startup born out of UC Berkeley. Our founding team comprises leading computer science researchers in security and systems with extensive prior entrepreneurship experience (Databricks, Anyscale, PreVeil). We've raised a $9.5M Seed, with funding from Intel Capital, Race Capital, The House Fund, and FactoryHQ.

Our mission is to unleash confidential data from its current security constraints by building a next generation platform to drive secure analytics and machine learning directly on encrypted data. Our platform is powered by cutting-edge technology that builds upon years of published research and commercializes the MC² Project.

We believe that diversity in backgrounds and opinions powers growth, creativity, and new ideas. We cherish inclusivity and acceptance, and encourage candidates from underrepresented backgrounds to apply so we can engage in a conversation about how you can amplify our team with your unique experience.

We’re looking for people who:
∙ Will help us set and maintain a high-performance and inclusive culture
∙ Share our passion for consumer and data privacy, and our vision for disrupting big data analytics and machine learning with confidential computing
∙ Are self-starters — those with detail and quality-oriented approaches who want to make impact and who will help shape the company
