Job summary

Light is building a Smart Financial Platform and seeks a founding, customer-embedded role to redesign finance workflows using AI-native methods. You’ll map current processes, redesign flows, wire integrations, and deploy AI agents to empower finance teams at multinational SaaS companies.

You’ll work with Financial Controllers, Finance Directors, and CFOs, diagnosing problems, building the solution, and training teams to operate go-live processes.

Qualifications

• 3+ years working close to how finance teams operate (accounting, process design, or financial customer success).
• Able to design workflows, prototype solutions, and ship working software rather than slides.
• Fluency in finance with comfort handling multi-entity consolidation and reporting.
• Ability to bring structure to messy problems and move fast from diagnose to ship.
• Comfort working with CFOs and engineers and delivering without formal authority.
• Experience with AI tools and knowledge of where they help or hinder delivery.
• Fluent English; additional European languages are a plus.
• Bonus: experience in integration engineering or AI agents in production; finance/accounting qualification.

Responsibilities

• Embed with a customer's finance team, map and redesign their workflows AI-first.
• Wire the integrations - pull data from ERPs, banks, and billing into Light.
• Configure, ship, and supervise AI agents in production until the customer trusts them.
• Hand back a workflow the customer runs themselves, and train their team from go-live.
• Diagnose edge cases the playbook doesn't cover, and ship the answer.
• Measure and prove impact against a week-0 baseline.
• Partner with your Account Manager and involve platform and AI engineering as needed.
• Feed repeatable patterns to the Product roadmap.
