About OPAQUE Systems - AgenTrust Fellowship to Advance Open Standards for Verifiable AI Agents

AgenTrust Fellowship, a six-month paid, part-time (20 hrs/week) program for engineers, researchers, and governance practitioners to help build the open infrastructure behind verifiable AI

The first cohort will include three to five fellows and begin in September 2026, and it does not require selected participants to quit their jobs. Selected participants will work alongside OPAQUE Chief Platform Officer and Agent Governance Toolkit (AGT) creator Imran Siddique, contributing directly to the open AgenTrust ecosystem and helping advance the next generation of verifiable AI standards.

Over six months, fellows will contribute across the AgenTrust open-source ecosystem, tackling real-world challenges in AI governance, confidential computing, and runtime verification. Their work may include advancing open standards for agent identity, protecting sensitive models and data during execution, and developing cryptographic evidence that allows enterprises and regulators to independently verify how AI systems behaved across open AgenTrust projects such as TRACE, Agent Manifest, Confidential MCP, and the AGT.
