About the Role

Join an early-stage AI-powered financial research company focused on healthcare as a founding engineer. You will build the infrastructure, tools, and systems that help AI agents transform diverse data sources into reliable, continuously updated industry research.

What You'll Do

  • Build and ship features across the frontend, real-time systems, and backend infrastructure.

  • Create data pipelines and tools that help analysts add sources and maintain industry coverage efficiently.

  • Improve AI agent parsing and extraction systems for greater capability and reliability.

  • Own projects end to end, from data inspection and quality assurance through instrumentation, production releases, and debugging.

  • Develop a company ontology and an earnings research product.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 2 years of experience building, shipping, and operating production systems, with approximately 7 years or fewer of professional experience.

  • Hands-on experience building and deploying agentic AI systems or LLM applications in production, with recent AI project work.

  • Full-stack capability, including Python backend development with FastAPI or an equivalent framework, TypeScript, and React.

  • Experience with data pipelines, ETL, data modeling, SQL, and relational database design and optimization, such as PostgreSQL.

  • Experience with AWS, production observability, distributed systems debugging, and real-time data or streaming systems.

  • Strong ownership and sound judgment about when to use AI reasoning versus deterministic software.

  • Financial research, capital markets, investment banking, or broader financial services experience is a plus, as is experience with modern data tools, edge computing, or AI/ML infrastructure.

  • U.S. citizenship is required.

Base salary: $156,000 to $182,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
