Who you are

You're a builder who thrives on turning AI possibilities into customer value. You’re bold and direct in your technical decisions, and you find a way to make AI work in production even when the path isn't clear. You ship functional AI features quickly, automate complex workflows, and solve hard problems by choosing pragmatic solutions over over-engineered ones, like opting for prompt engineering over full model fine-tuning when speed and cost matter most. You also embody our core values. You prioritize speed over perfection and iterate based on real user feedback. You obsess over customers every AI feature you build is driven by their needs and makes their experience meaningfully better. You focus on measurable outcomes over technical elegance, push your limits, and continuously learn to stay ahead in a fast-moving field.

What you will do

The most critical part of this role is to deliver AI-based features into our customer-facing product . You'll architect and implement AI capabilities that directly enhance how our customers raise capital and manage investor relations. This includes both building net-new LLM-powered features and improving existing ones, such as our customer-service chatbot, to automate complex workflows, guide users through fundraising processes, and extract insights from financial documents.

You'll collaborate closely with the Data & AI team in the creation and usage of MLOps systems, contributing to the design and integration of tools for model deployment, observability, monitoring, retraining, and continuous performance improvement. Your focus will be on ensuring that AI features operate reliably at scale and can evolve quickly based on user needs.

In addition to working with Product and Design, you’ll also partner with data teams across a variety of scenarios to translate business needs into technical AI solutions. You’ll mentor other engineers on AI best practices and drive key technical decisions that shape our broader AI strategy. Your work will directly impact thousands of users who rely on our platform to navigate complex financial processes.
