GSJ · THE ARC / Trust Infrastructure
Trust infrastructure for security-critical work.
Not another background-check platform.
A background check establishes facts at a point in time. High-stakes workforce decisions also depend on the person, the role, the organisation, the evidence — and whether the decision can still be justified as circumstances change. THE ARC is being built to connect those layers for organisations where getting the decision wrong has consequences.
Detailed workflows are available in private walkthroughs for relevant organisations, partners and investors.

Beyond point-in-time screening
Verification is one input — not the product.
Identity, credentials and screening can establish important facts. But security-critical decisions also depend on role requirements, organisational context, changing risk, structured human review and an auditable decision trail. THE ARC is being built around a broader question:
“Can an organisation responsibly place trust in this person, in this role, in this environment, at this moment — and continue to justify that decision as circumstances change?”
From screening infrastructure to trust infrastructure — without collapsing complex decisions into an opaque score. Read how the contextual trust model works, or start with what workforce trust infrastructure means.
Public trust model
From verification to accountable decision context.
A clear path from evidence to accountable human review — without exposing proprietary methods or sensitive workflows.
02
Contextualise
Connect verified evidence to organisation and role requirements.
03
Review
Support structured human review rather than automated final decisions.
04
Accountability
Preserve a traceable basis for how the decision was reached.
Background screening can be an input. It is not the whole trust model.
Who it is for
For organisations where a hiring decision can become an operational risk decision.
01
Security & protective services

02
Defence-adjacent organisations
Structured evidence for high-responsibility environments.
03
Emergency services
Clearer workforce context where readiness matters.
04
Critical infrastructure
Accountable decisions around access and operational roles.
05
Other regulated / high-trust environments

Founder / origin
Built from operational experience, not a market thesis.
More than 20 years around security-critical environments exposed a recurring problem: important workforce decisions are often made from fragmented evidence, inconsistent processes and incomplete context. GSJ exists to make those decisions more accountable.
The problem was never simply how to run another check. It was how to make better trust decisions from fragmented evidence.
Current stage
Approaching pilot stage.
GSJ is preparing for structured pilot and validation conversations focused on whether verified evidence, organisational context and role requirements can support clearer, more accountable workforce decisions in real operational settings.
Founding team
Building the core team
We are speaking with senior technical co-founder / CTO and founding engineer candidates who can help lead the next stage of GSJ.
We are looking for someone technically strong, security-minded and hands-on — but also visionary, constructive, loyal and willing to challenge conventional thinking.
Established foundation
The core direction and foundation are already established. The role is to strengthen, scale and extend what has been built — not to restart it.
Compensation transparency
This is an early-stage founding opportunity. A conventional full-time salary is not currently available; the right co-founder-level structure is expected to include meaningful equity.
Selected conversations
Pre-seed investor conversations
We are open to conversations with selected pre-seed investors who understand trust infrastructure, security-critical environments, GovTech, RegTech and global B2B platforms.
We are particularly interested in investors who can contribute more than capital — through relevant networks, regulatory understanding or access to strategic markets.
The long-term ambition is to strengthen the trust infrastructure surrounding security-critical workforce decisions.
Current conversations are exploratory and pre-seed in nature.
Start a ConversationNext step
Some decisions require a deeper conversation.
For pilot discussions, strategic partnerships, technical collaboration or pre-seed investor conversations, speak directly with the founder.
