About the role

Cogentiq I2C is Fractal’s agentic AI Product for invoice-to-cash, covering Collections, Cash Application, Deductions, Invoice Management and Credit Risk. It runs on a Next.js front end, a FastAPI service layer, the Cogentiq agentic runtime, and a data tier on Azure Databricks with PostgreSQL. You own the AI side: the agents, the models and everything that makes them accurate and dependable in front of a finance team. You design it, you lead the team that builds it, and you write code yourself.

What they're looking for

  • Ten to fourteen years in AI, machine learning or software, with at least three leading a team
  • Track record of owning technical design, not only implementing someone else’s design
  • Production experience with LLM and agentic systems: multi-step workflows, tool use, orchestration frameworks, and the failure modes that only appear at scale
  • Real evaluation discipline. Evidence that you have measured agent quality with something more rigorous than manual spot checks
  • Strong Python engineering. Your team ships production code, not notebooks
  • Document understanding and information extraction experience, ideally on messy real-world inputs such as emails, remittance advices and attachments

You own the AI side: the agents, the models and everything that makes them accurate and dependable in front of a finance team. You design it, you lead the team that builds it, and you write code yourself.

  • Technical design of the AI side: agent decomposition, orchestration patterns, tool design, memory and context strategy.
  • The agents across all five modules, from document extraction and matching through to the reasoning steps behind a recommendation.
  • Accuracy and reliability. Evaluation sets, regression suites, and a defensible number for how well each agent performs before it ships.
  • Guardrails and human oversight: confidence thresholds, escalation to a person, audit trails, and traceable reasoning for any decision touching cash.
