Job description

As a Senior or Tech Lead Engineer, you will drive initiatives with broad business and technical impact. The role is not tied to a single area: senior and staff engineers here take on our most important and complex problems, own major product and engineering areas, and work directly with customers. Beyond technical excellence, we value engineers who are curious and take initiative.

Responsibilities:

• Build the agentic systems that power real-world enterprise accounting automation.
• Scale the platform to support large and growing enterprise workloads.
• Architect a durable and scalable financial data processing layer.
• Build the infrastructure that powers our agentic systems.
• Solve intricate accounting workflows through clean and robust abstractions.

Requirements:

• Typically 6 or more years building systems at high-growth companies.
• Strong familiarity with web development, relational databases, and distributed systems.
• A record of owning a product or engineering area end to end and driving initiatives that cut across teams.
• Ability to design, deploy, and iterate on infrastructure that has to be accurate and reliable under high-volume financial data.
• Comfort working directly with customers to understand real-world requirements.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills; you raise the bar for the people around you.

Nice to have:

• Experience with AI agents, data pipelines, mission-critical systems such as fintech, or complex workflow engines.
• Experience with any of our stack: Go, TypeScript, and Python services, React on the front end, GCP and Kubernetes, and LLM integrations throughout.
