Help us catch the crawlers
that look human
We're a small team working on one hard problem: the sophisticated crawlers that scrape publishers while generic CDNs wave them through as real readers. We build the detection that catches them.

Why work at Centinel?
Own your work
You'll own real problems end to end and watch your detection ship against live crawler traffic.
Ship fast, stay careful
We move quickly, but every block has to be right — a false positive is a real reader turned away.
Say what's true
We don't ship unverified numbers or vague claims. That discipline applies inside the team too.
Small team, real ownership
You won't be a cog. What you build is visible, and it matters to the people who use it.
Work that matters to publishers
Publishers are losing the traffic their business runs on. Your detection helps them take it back.
Go deep, not wide
We do one thing — bot protection for publishers — and we go deeper on it than anyone.
