About the team

Delo is building the next generation of enterprise AI: digital teammates that automate the work humans shouldn't do, starting with Finance and expanding across the back office. Born inside Deloitte and now backed by the firm, Delo is creating Deloitte 2.0: a fully digital, AI-native version of the firm. Our platform orchestrates agentic AI, structured SOPs, and automated workflows across ERPs, CRMs, tax engines, and financial systems. Think: a reusable, multi-agent operating system for enterprise work. We're early, truly 01, and building a scalable engineering foundation that will power dozens of agents, thousands of teams, and millions of automated tasks. If you want to build foundational infrastructure that will power AI-driven work for thousands of organizations, this is the moment to join.

Enough about us, let's talk about you

You are someone who has these skills, experience & qualifications:

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, with strong front-end work in React/Next.js and back-end experience in Python/FastAPI or another modern web framework.
• Track record of designing and operating production systems at scale and setting the technical bar for others.
• Experience with event-driven architectures for orchestrating long-running agent runs and decoupling services.
• Strong with relational data modeling (PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB, Elasticsearch).
• Experienced designing APIs and integrating front-end and back-end components cleanly and securely; solid on secure coding, auth, reusability and performance.
• Shipped LLM-powered features in production and understand the realities of non-determinism: prompting, evals, retries, fallbacks, and guardrails.
• Fluent with AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex) as a daily driver.
• A clear communicator and detail-oriented engineer committed to clean, maintainable, testable code.

It would be great for you to have some of these nice to haves as well:

• Experience building agentic systems and hands-on RAG with vector DBs (pgvector, elasticsearch, milvus).
• Built an LLM eval pipeline and familiarity with tool use, function calling, MCP, and structured outputs.
• Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), containers (Docker, Kubernetes), and DevOps/Infrastructure as Code principles.
• Exposure to data governance, AI ethics, and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA)
• Prior startup or SaaS experience, especially in fintech, accounting, or ERP/CRM domains.
