Company Description: AI-driven financial compliance startup

Job Description:
You will bridge the gap between engineering and customers, leading end-to-end pilot deployments for high-profile financial institutions. By building custom workflows and integrations, you will solve critical compliance pain points and translate field insights into product requirements, directly influencing the roadmap of a platform automating high-stakes operational review tasks.

• Generous benefits including visa sponsorship, performance equity refreshes, and four weeks of work-from-anywhere annually.

What you will do:

• Lead customer deployments from first engagement through implementation, launch, and post-go-live iteration.

• Build and rapidly ship custom workflows, configurations, and integrations directly within customer environments.

• Partner with leadership to synthesize customer learnings into actionable insights for the long-term platform strategy.

The ideal candidate:

• 3+ years of experience in software or forward-deployed engineering, ideally in customer-facing environments.

• Strong fundamentals in Node.js, React, and TypeScript with the ability to build production-grade data pipelines.

• Exceptional problem-framing skills to translate messy, real-world operational pain points into structured technical solutions.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.
Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.
We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
