About the Role

Own large parts of the AI platform end to end as an AI-native, full-stack generalist who makes every engineer around you better.

What You Will Do

  • Build hands-on across the full stack, from frontend and backend to database migrations, using AI agents to write and review the code.
  • Own large product areas end to end, such as the agent that builds investment-grade presentations and memos for finance teams.
  • Write technical design docs by hand and spend 10 to 20 percent of your time reviewing other engineers' designs and code.
  • Raise the bar on architecture, code quality and engineering practice across the team.
  • Work directly with customers, sales, customer success and product to turn the needs of finance professionals into shipped features.

What We Are Looking For

  • Eight or more years of software engineering experience (seven is the absolute minimum), with clear promotions and progression.
  • A degree in computer science or an engineering field, and strong pedigree at top technology companies or startups, ideally both big tech and startup.
  • Truly AI-native: you build with coding agents day to day.
  • A proven record as a force multiplier, having led a product pillar or large infrastructure project and made senior engineers better.
  • Full-stack production experience with React or Next.js and Python or Node.js, Postgres and background job systems, and practical SOC 2 compliance experience.
  • A clear, specific reason for wanting an early-stage startup.

Benefits & Perks

  • Compensation and Benefits $290,000-$340,000 base salary, higher for exceptional candidates, plus a 25% annual performance bonus, competitive equity and relocation support. Visa transfers are considered.
  • Location and Work Model
  • Full-time and hybrid in San Francisco.
