## About the role

We're hiring an AI Engineer to help build the core agent systems that power autonomous financial audits. You'll work on long-horizon reasoning, large-scale data ingestion, and production-grade agent reliability, collaborating closely with auditors and other engineers. This is a high-ownership role with responsibility from architecture through deployment.

## What they're looking for

- Experience building complex agent or workflow-based systems — You can reason about how to rebuild systems like Claude-style agents from scratch. You understand planning, tool use, memory, and failure modes
- Strong fullstack engineering ability — You can be trusted to ship fault-tolerant features end to end. You understand how your changes interact with the rest of the system
- Strong systems engineering fundamentals — You can design concurrent workloads over large datasets without stalling or failure. You think carefully about throughput, backpressure, retries, and observability
- Comfort learning non-engineering domains quickly — You can absorb audit concepts from domain experts and turn them into working systems fast
- Experience with or adjacent to our stack: TypeScript, Python, Temporal, Docker, Terraform, AWS Fargate
