About Minerva

An AI native financial institution. We're making financial services fast and affordable for all, starting with accounting. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

We build agents for marketers. This seat builds them for us. Every company our size runs on work nobody sees. Someone copies a new hire's details into six tools. Someone remembers which contract renews next month. Someone answers the same security questionnaire for the fourth time. Most companies hire a coordinator for that work. We're hiring an engineer. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • You've shipped agents or automations that coworkers use every week, and you can show the usage: who stopped doing what, and how many hours came back
  • Production Python or TypeScript, with LLMs wired into real APIs. You're comfortable with OAuth scopes, webhooks and scheduled jobs, and with the ways each of them fails
  • You know how a company runs. You can talk to a recruiter, a controller and a security auditor in their own terms, and you fix the process before you automate it
  • A controls instinct. Before you ship, you've decided who approves what and what happens when the agent is wrong
  • You're current. You know what shipped in AI tooling this month, and you can show us your own setup
  • You write clearly. People follow your runbooks without asking you
More about this role

Minerva builds AI for marketing leaders. We work together with marketers to automate and accelerate their workflows with AI agents. Our agents augment the end-to-end workflow of the marketer by automating analysis, campaign planning, activation, measurement and reporting.

Customers like the NBA, Ramp, Wander, Hard Rock Stadium Group and Luxury Presence use Minerva to develop a better understanding of their customers and introduce AI specifically built to understand the customer into their commercial organizations. Our campaigns outperform other tools because we built the entire stack: from identity to enrichment to data integration as well as agents to action and report on the analysis.

We've raised $20M from The General Partnership, 8VC, Lingotto, NBA Investments, Topology Ventures, Future Positive, Background Capital and many others. Our team brings together operators and investors from Citadel, Dentsu, Bridgewater, Meta Superintelligence, Growthloop, Amazon and Lazard, alongside engineers and researchers from Berkeley, MIT, Stanford and Cambridge.

Agents: Claude across the company (in Slack, through the API, with skills and MCP), plus Mastra for the agents we build ourselves...
