CTO & Co-Founder at SCARCE Labs
SCARCE Labs, Inc. — CTO, Agentic Intelligence Platform (SCARCE Orchestra)
Wellfound Job Posting
The Mission
We are building the central nervous system for tokenized ultra-luxury real estate.
SCARCE Labs is creating the world’s most advanced multi-agent AI orchestration layer for real-world asset tokenization and intelligent portfolio management — the SCARCE Orchestra.
Our platform turns scarcity into scalable, liquid, yield-bearing intelligence. Specialized agents handle investor onboarding, real-time compliance, dynamic yield optimization, risk intelligence, cross-fund synchronization, and scarcity scoring — all working in perfect harmony under a unified objective.
This is not another LLM wrapper. This is production-grade agentic infrastructure with shared memory, tool-use, human-in-the-loop escalation, regulatory-grade audit trails, and deep integration with on-chain systems (ERC-1400/3643, tZERO, Securitize).
We are defining a new category: Agentic Intelligence Platforms for tokenized real assets.
The Role: CTO, SCARCE Orchestra
We’re hiring a CTO who lives and breathes multi-agent systems, production AI, and on-chain infrastructure to lead the technical vision and execution of the SCARCE Orchestra.
You will own the architecture, scaling, and defensibility of the most sophisticated agentic AI system in private markets — the intelligence layer that powers every tokenized fund, every portfolio decision, and every LP interaction.
This role is equal parts deep technical leadership and category creation.
What You’ll Own
Multi-Agent Orchestration Architecture — Design and evolve the shared memory layer, agent coordination protocols, conflict resolution, and global objective optimization that make the Orchestra function as a single, self-improving intelligence system
Production Agentic Systems — Build and scale 8+ specialized agents (Onboarding, Compliance, Yield Optimization, Risk Intelligence, Portfolio Optimization, Scarcity Index™, Intelligent Intake, and more) with full auditability and human-in-the-loop controls
On-Chain + AI Integration — Ensure seamless, secure integration between agentic intelligence and live on-chain NAV, ERC-1400/3643 token mechanics, USDC yield distribution, and secondary trading
Security & Compliance Moat — Own enterprise-grade security architecture (zero-knowledge proofs, secure multi-party computation, HSM integration, agent-level sandboxing, continuous threat detection)
Domain-Specific Intelligence — Lead fine-tuning and continuous learning systems on ultra-luxury real estate behavior, scarcity economics, and tokenized securities dynamics
Team & Culture — Build and mentor a world-class team of agentic engineers, AI infrastructure specialists, and on-chain systems experts
Who We’re Looking For
Deep agentic AI + production systems leader — You have built and scaled multi-agent or orchestration systems in production (not just prototypes). Experience with LangChain/LlamaIndex is table stakes; you think beyond frameworks to custom coordination, memory, and conflict resolution layers.
Strong background in on-chain systems (Ethereum, ERC-1400/3643, tZERO/Securitize, or similar institutional tokenization stacks)
Proven ability to deliver regulatory-grade, auditable AI systems in finance or highly regulated industries
Experience with zero-knowledge, MPC, or advanced privacy-preserving computation is a major advantage
Exceptional architect who can balance rapid iteration with long-term defensibility (proprietary data moat, domain models, network effects)
Bonus: Background in real estate tech, private markets, quant finance, or high-stakes multi-agent systems (robotics, autonomous systems, large-scale trading)
You are obsessed with elegance, precision, and reliability. You want to build systems that feel like conducting an orchestra — many specialized instruments, one unified, beautiful result.
Why This Role Is Different
Category creation — You are not maintaining an existing platform. You are defining what “Agentic Intelligence Platform for tokenized RWA” means.
Unprecedented defensibility — Proprietary transaction + scarcity data, domain-specific models, regulatory-grade compliance layer, and network effects that compound with every new parcel and fund.
Direct impact on the most exclusive assets on earth — Your agents will influence how the world’s wealthiest families and institutions allocate capital into trophy real estate.
Significant equity + potential carried interest economics in the funds the Orchestra powers.
Join an elite founding team (ex-MakerDAO/Compound, ex-The Graph, ex-Fission Labs, elite quant finance + AI systems).
Location: Remote-first with strong preference for Los Angeles / San Francisco Bay Area
Stage: Seed (platform revenue + new business lines already in motion)
Team: Small, elite, high-trust — you will shape the engineering culture
The Metaphor We Live By
“You Are the Conductor Now.”
Before SCARCE, investors managed fragmented vendors, dashboards, and complexity.
With the SCARCE Orchestra, you conduct intelligence — with perfect harmony.
If you want to build the most elegant, powerful, and defensible agentic AI system in private markets — and own the category — we’d love to hear from you.
