About the role
As a Software Engineer, you’ll work directly with our Head of Engineering and product team to build the agentic platform that powers how small businesses are bought and sold. Your work will directly impact how thousands of owners navigate one of the biggest financial moments of their lives. This is not a papers-and-prototypes role, it’s product engineering with real AI systems.
What they're looking for
- Shipped and owned production AI systems end-to-end (LLM and/or classic ML) — real users, measurable outcomes, operational responsibility
- Strong software engineering fundamentals with excellent Python skills and experience integrating foundation models in production
- A track record of shipping — you’ve taken ambiguous problems from concept → production and can point to impact
- Strong product sense — you can be your own product manager when needed, translating business needs into technical solutions without waiting for a spec
- Comfort in ambiguity — you thrive with limited structure and turn uncertainty into clarity
