## 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
