Full Job Description
The Role

We're hiring a Member of Technical Staff - AI/ML to design, build, and deploy AI-powered systems that solve real-world financial operations challenges. You'll take state-of-the-art AI research and translate it into production-grade features that deliver measurable customer impact. From intelligent invoice matching to automated payment reconciliation, you'll create scalable, reliable AI applications that integrate seamlessly into our platform.

This is a hands-on role for an engineer who thrives at the intersection of AI innovation and practical business application - turning cutting-edge models into real-world value for mid-market CFOs

What You'll Do
  • Create production-ready AI applications and agentic systems that address customer financial workflow challenges
  • Build tool-using LLM agents that surface insights, recommend next steps, and execute approved tasks - not just chatbots
  • Refine capabilities like invoice matching, payment reconciliation, and financial document processing
  • Apply and optimize LLMs and RAG systems for financial use cases, including fine-tuning on proprietary data where it moves the needle
  • Build robust AI pipelines from ingestion to inference - reliable, maintainable, and cost-efficient through smart model routing
  • Stand up golden datasets, agent tracing, regression-on-PR, and A/B testing so we ship confidently and catch silent regressions
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Data, and customers to translate business needs into AI solutions
  • Treat every AI feature as a continuously-improving system - instrument everything, iterate

You Might Be a Fit If You...
  • Have 5+ years of AI/ML experience
  • Have shipped agentic products in production and understand the failure modes (tool use, planning, state, recovery, human-in-the-loop)
  • Have integrated and fine-tuned LLMs, and built RAG systems for document- or data-intensive workflows
  • Have trained and deployed classical ML models (risk scoring, forecasting, ranking, or similar) - feature engineering, model selection, evaluation, calibration
  • Have strong opinions on AI/ML evals - golden datasets, offline + online evaluation, statistical significance, evals in CI
  • Are familiar with LLM observability tooling (LangSmith, Braintrust, Arize, or similar) and treat tracing as table stakes
  • Understand MLOps fundamentals: deployment, monitoring, A/B testing, model and prompt versioning, feature stores
  • Are fluent in Python and modern AI/ML tooling (PyTorch, Transformers, scikit-learn, XGBoost, vLLM, LangChain/LlamaIndex, or equivalent)
  • Have shipped AI/ML products that solved real business problems, not just prototypes
  • Can translate business requirements into clear technical solutions
  • Bonus: experience with model routing across providers
  • Bonus: fintech, B2B SaaS, or AR/AP domain experience
  • Are plugged into the AI/ML community and energized by bringing AI to real-world use cases

Compensation
  • Top-of-market salary and equity package
  • Benefits (for U.S.-based full-time employees)
  • Medical, dental & vision insurance coverage for you
  • 401(k) & Match
  • Equity
  • Flexible PTO
  • Parental Leave
