About the role
You’ll work directly with the CEO to shape strategy, improve operations, expand the product to new regions, scale the team & build the foundation for future hires across marketing, product, and customer success. One week you might close a deal with a bank; the next, run a product launch, support a deployment, or manage a key partnership. This obviously won’t be week one, but we do expect you to be comfortable making difficult decisions by month one.
More about this role
tl;dr: We’re automating onboardings in finance with AI agents that work on the browser. Demand is growing more than we can keep up, and we’re looking for a strategic generalist to work directly with our CEO, helping us scale across GTM, product, and operations. If you love building from zero to one, thrive in ambiguity, and get things done without asking for permission, we should talk.
Before you can move money or open an account, someone has to make sure you’re not a criminal. That’s compliance – and it’s broken.
Sphinx builds AI analysts that work inside browsers, APIs, and internal systems just like humans — automating AML, KYC, KYB, and transaction monitoring end-to-end.
Banks and fintechs across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and LatAm use Sphinx agents to handle 90% of their manual work and cut costs by 4x.
Massive, unsexy market: Banks spend $50B a year hiring thousands of analysts to review alerts and fill out reports by hand. The space has seen very little innovation, and customers complain about our most well-funded competitors weekly. It's not glamorous – until you realize you're building the intelligence layer that protects the entire financial system.
