Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Take the product from MVP to something real customers rely on
• Build with LLMs, agents, RAG, and evaluation as core product surface, not as bolt-ons
• Work directly with the founding team on what gets built and why
• Dig into the parts of the system that need real ownership: data pipeline, infra, model integration
• Move fast alongside engineers who already know how to ship

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years shipping production software, with meaningful time at an early-stage company
• You have taken at least one AI-powered product from nothing to real users in production, and can explain the tradeoffs you made along the way
• Deep in modern stacks, typically TypeScript/React/Node and/or Python, comfortable across the full stack and into infrastructure
• Uses AI tooling daily as part of how you actually build
• Comfortable with ambiguity and with being the person who decides
• Can talk to non-engineers about technical tradeoffs without losing either group

🏖️ Benefits

• The product is category-defining. Investment banking has not been rebuilt around AI yet. This is the attempt to do it, not a feature layered onto something that already exists.
• You are early, but not too early. The MVP is nearly built, so you arrive with something real in hand rather than a blank page.
• You will build next to people who know the domain cold. Our partner has spent a career doing these deals. You will not be guessing at what bankers need or designing from secondhand assumptions.
• A high-autonomy team. You'll work alongside senior engineers who move fast and don't need hand-holding, with real say in the decisions that shape the product.
