About Soria

AI Financial Research Terminal built for Healthcare (and beyond). Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

We do not expect you to have already done every part of this job. We want someone with real depth in backend engineering, data infrastructure, applied AI, or product engineering—and the openness to work across the rest, including unfamiliar infrastructure and scaling problems.

What they're looking for

  • Shipping frontend and customer-facing features, including real-time systems that update customers as information changes
  • Creating data pipelines, tools, and infrastructure that let our internal analysts add new sources and maintain sector coverage faster and more reliably
  • Improving our tools and optimizing skills that make Hermes agents more capable and reliable
  • Owning work end to end: inspecting the data, using and QAing what you build, instrumenting it, shipping it, and fixing it when it breaks in production
  • On your first day: Add a new information source to Soria
  • In your first week: Ship an improvement to the speed or reliability of Soria’s agentic parsing and extraction systems
