TGH Tech
Careers

We’re not for everyone.
And that’s the point.

We build the foundations and systems that let organizations think, decide, and perform better — and, at the frontier, the products that will become the intelligence layer of the next era. It’s work with real weight: put a real organization on a footing it can run without us, then help invent the cognition tools the whole field is still reaching for. We’re straight, generous, and we’ve been inside. If you want your work to matter and to last, you belong here.

01 · What a reviewer actually does all day

Read code somebody else wrote, decide what it risks, and write it down so a non-technical owner can act.

One lens at a time

A cycle is reviewed in parallel by several people, each looking through a single lens — access, isolation, integrity, pipeline. Depth beats breadth per head.

Verified against source

Every serious finding is checked against the actual code before it reaches a report. A false positive costs a client’s trust, so we spend the time.

Written for the owner

Severity, why it exists, what it risks, the specific fix — and what you could not verify. Writing is half the job, not the paperwork after it.

The ratchet

Anything that appears twice becomes an enforced check you build. The aim is to make your own findings rarer, which is an unusual incentive to work under.

02 · What you get out of it

Three things this job gives you that a delivery seat does not.

Depth,
not tickets

One lens, read properly, for a whole cycle. You get to be the person who actually knows how a system behaves rather than the person who closed the most items.

Measured
in public

Guardrails enforced versus written, findings per unit of new work — the same numbers the client sees every cycle. No performance narrative required.

Range across
real businesses

Client work in businesses that are actually running on the thing you are reading. Small team, so the range arrives early.

03 · A career path, not just something we sell

The Forward Deployed Specialist

You sit inside a client’s team — their standups, their backlog, their real deadlines — and own the line between “somebody built a thing” and “the business runs on it.” Then you train your replacement on their side and leave. Being made unnecessary is the promotion, and it is the strangest and best part of the job.

You’ll be measured onGuardrails enforced versus written, and findings per unit of new work. Both published to the client every cycle.

You won’t be measured onBillable hours, ticket counts, or how indispensable you have made yourself.

What you’d needEnough engineering depth to be right, and enough plain language to be understood by someone who isn’t.

Where you’d beKochi, placed inside client teams. Some travel, mostly not.

04 · Who this suits

Four people this job is actually for

If none of these is recognisably you, the honest answer is that you would be bored here within a quarter.

01

Engineers who would rather read a system than add to it

02

People who can write a finding an owner understands without a translator

03

Anyone comfortable saying “I could not verify this” in writing, to a client

04

Builders who want their own findings to get rarer, not their seat to get safer

05 · How hiring works

Three steps, about three weeks, paid at the part that takes real time.

No panel, no personality test, no take-home project built to a brief. We look at work you already care about and we read what you write.

Send it over

Show us

Send one thing you have built that you are proud of — a tool, a system, a piece of writing, a thing you made because it bothered you that it did not exist. Tell us in a paragraph what it does and what was hard about it. We reply either way, with what we thought of it.

One link No CV needed Reply in a week
A page in your words

Write

Then we ask you to write us a page: what you actually want from work, what you want to be excellent at, and the last thing you changed your mind about. We read it properly, and we write back. It is the part of the process most people tell us they enjoyed.

One page Your own words No take-home build We write back
A straight answer

Decide

A working conversation with the two people you would sit beside — we go through the thing you built and the page you wrote, and dig into the decisions in both. Then a straight yes or no with the reason attached, in writing, within a week.

06 · Not ready to apply yet

A small group of people, becoming exceptional together.

Ascent is a small, carefully chosen group of builders who come together, in person, to grow faster than any of them could alone. You come up through it. Then you belong to it for life.

There is very little formal structure here, and that is on purpose. Transformation comes from immersion, not instruction. It is an initiative by YE Stack, the group we are part of — and several of the people we work with came up through it.

06 · Open roles

Two roles open. Small team, so this list stays short and honest.

Both are in Kochi, full time, and both start with the same thing: one thing you built, written the way we write them.

AI Engineer

Build the harness, not the model: context that reaches the agent, routing keyed to a measured quality bar, and evaluation that says whether a cheaper model still cleared it.

Those are the two roles open right now. If neither is you but the work is, write to us anyway — we have hired people for roles that did not exist until they asked.

Want to work here?

Send us one thing you have built that you are proud of — shipped, half-finished, or purely for your own amusement. Tell us what it is, why you made it, and the part you would defend in a room. That tells us more than a CV, and we reply either way.

Not a role — a project? Talk to us instead.
