status, or any other basis protected by applicable law. In
alignment with its business operations, Kodiak adheres to all
relevant statutes, regulations, and administrative prerequisites.
Accordingly, roles that carry more sensitive requirements may be
limited to candidates that can satisfy additional scrutiny and
eligibility for such positions may hinge on verification of a
candidate’s residence, U.S. person status, and/or citizenship
status. Should the position require, and Kodiak determines that a
candidate’s residence, U.S. person status, and/or citizenship
status necessitate an export license, bar the candidate from the
position, or otherwise fall under national security-related
restrictions, Kodiak will consider the candidate for alternative
positions unaffected by such restrictions, under terms and
conditions set forth at Kodiak’s sole discretion, or, as an
alternative, opt not to proceed with the candidate’s application.
If applicable, Kodiak may provide visa sponsorship for eligible
candidates. We use a third-party AI tool (Endorsed) to assist in
the initial screening of applications. As part of the evaluation
process, we provide Endorsed with job requirements and
candidate-submitted applications. Final hiring decisions are made
by our human recruitment team, and no automated system makes the
ultimate decision regarding hiring. Certain features of the
platform may qualify it as an Automated Employment Decision Tool
(AEDT) under applicable regulations. We began using Endorsed on
January 1, 2026. You can review the independent bias audit report
covering our use of Endorsed [here](

application, you acknowledge that your application may be processed
by AI systems as part of the screening and selection process. If

of your application, please contact careers@kodiak.ai with
