Job description

Sit with auditors, underwriters, and credit teams, turn their SOPs into agent teams, and own the deployment through to sign-off.

Objective

Be the bridge between our AI platform and BFSI customers. You'll sit with auditors, underwriters, and credit teams — turn their SOPs into working agent teams and own the deployment through customer sign-off.

About the role

Be the bridge between our AI platform and BFSI customers. You’ll sit with auditors, underwriters, and credit teams — turn their SOPs into working agent teams and own the deployment through customer sign-off.

This is a deeply technical role that is not a coding role: you will configure agents, design workflows, and reason about controls — but your raw material is the messy reality of a regulated process, and your deliverable is a system a compliance team can sign off.

You are the bridge between two rooms that rarely understand each other: a room of auditors who think in controls, and a room of engineers who think in systems. Both need to trust you. That trust is the job.

Key responsibilities

• Lead solution discovery workshops with BFSI clients (banks, insurers, NBFCs)
• Translate SOPs, policies, and workflows into agent architectures
• Design end-to-end solutions covering data, models, agents, and integrations
• Work with compliance, risk, and audit stakeholders to ensure regulatory alignment
• Serve as the trusted technical advisor throughout the customer lifecycle

Required skills

• 6+ years in solution architecture, consulting, or pre-sales in BFSI
• Deep understanding of banking operations — underwriting, credit, audit, compliance, KYC/AML
• Strong grasp of AI/ML, LLMs, and agentic workflows (you don't need to code, but must speak the language)
• Experience delivering enterprise software into Tier-1 banks or insurers
• Excellent stakeholder management — from C-suite to operations teams
• Strong documentation and solution-design skills
• Willingness to travel across India, UAE, and UK

Nice to have

• Certifications in banking (CFA, FRM) or cloud (AWS/Azure Solutions Architect)
• Prior experience at Big-4 consulting or core banking vendors
• Exposure to regulatory frameworks (RBI, DFSA, FCA, Basel III)
