Welcoming Maria Rafaela Gkeka
Maria Rafaela Gkeka joins NOFire AI as a Member of Technical Staff on the Runtime & Controls team, working on the Profiler: deriving the policy that governs an agent from what the agent actually did, rather than from a rulebook maintained by hand. She is a systems researcher finishing a PhD at the University of Thessaly, and joins from Nubificus.
Welcoming Maria Gkoutha
Maria Gkoutha joins NOFire AI as a Member of Technical Staff on the Runtime & Controls team, working on the layer that checks every agent action at runtime and blocks anything that would breach a guardrail. She joins from Nubificus, where she spent nearly four years on runtime performance and hardware acceleration.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Every agent platform ships guardrails. Almost nobody asks who watches them. We walk through the trust boundaries of observing an agent from outside its sandbox, why the strongest audit trail is written from a vantage point the agent cannot reach, and how we lift raw boundary events into operations a human can actually read.
Welcoming Anastasia Mallikopoulou
Anastasia Mallikopoulou joins NOFire AI as a Member of Technical Staff on the Orchestration & Context team, working on how production knowledge is retrieved, represented, and served to agents. She joins from Nubificus, where her centre of gravity moved from building machine learning models to building the systems that have to run them.
Following a Kafka Stall Across a Hop
The outcome that matters with Kafka isn't access to the topic. It's visibility end to end: from the application, through the topic, to every application depending on it. Here's what that looks like in practice, following a stall past a healthy consumer into a downstream service that touches no Kafka at all.
Welcoming Panagiotis Mavrikos
Panagiotis Mavrikos joins NOFire AI as a Member of Technical Staff on the Core Infrastructure team, building the isolated, reproducible, and observable environments that let agents run safely in production.
The Sandboxing Manifesto
A sandbox is a falsifiable claim. "Sandbox" has been diluted until it guarantees nothing. Ours is a definition sharp enough to be proven wrong: seven checkable properties, enforced by hardware-level microVM isolation, not by configuration.
