Job summary

ArcaLabs in Palo Alto is hiring founding engineers to build the platform underneath: the agent, its sandboxes, audit and eval systems, and the surfaces bankers will use daily. You’ll own end-to-end features across core systems, AI engineering, and frontend work.

You’ll ship code that runs inside the world's largest banks and PE firms. It’s a small team, so your contributions are visible from day one.

Qualifications

• Have >= 1 year of software engineering experience with a strong track record shipping production systems.
• Are fluent in Python and TypeScript; have shipped agent-driven features.
• Care about the quality of the deliverable, not just the code; you'd rather ship a working comps file than a beautiful abstraction.
• Have worked on evals, agent architecture, ML, data, and systems, and are excited to put them into a system bankers actually use.

Responsibilities

• Build and own components of our agent runtime including retrieval, memory, evals, and core AI work.
• Build infrastructure for agents: sandboxes, VMs, lifecycle, security, observability, data pipelines.
• Develop evals and observability for agents to ship better results faster.
• Ensure platform deployable in customer VPCs with single-tenant, KMS, audit logs.
• Collaborate with FDEs and sales to harden patterns into reusable platform features.
