About The Role

### What you'll do

  • **Develop and scale the backbone of our core audit product.** You’ll scope, build, and launch product features that will enable our customers to replace work that has traditionally been done manually with a fully agentic approach.
  • **Take ownership of end-to-end workflows.** Including data processing, UI, agent harness, evaluation, and deployment.
  • **Help set product direction.** You’ll contribute to the roadmap, balancing customer feedback with long-term product health.

### You…

  • Are an Software Engineer with experience building, launching, and scaling systems
  • Have built AI-driven solutions for either internal or external use cases
  • Can balance research curiosity with engineering pragmatism
  • Want to move quickly, own problems end-to-end, and iterate with limited guidance
  • Flourish in autonomy, complexity, and ambiguity
  • Are comfortable working client-facing when needed

### This is a great fit if you…

  • Deeply fascinated by artificial intelligence, and how it will shape the future
  • Constantly push the boundaries on what's possible with the latest models in your day to day work and personal life
  • Enjoy building great products and are happy to take ownership end-to-end to get there
  • Have previously or want to found something yourself in a few years time
  • Would like to move from London to SF in the fall 2026 (with visa support)
  • Have high agency and a constant drive for impact
  • Flourish in autonomy, complexity, and ambiguity
  • Want to work in-person from our office in London

### This won't be the right role if you…

  • Are uncomfortable with ambiguity. We are still very early and are constantly adjusting based on what we learn.
  • Are looking to manage others. We're firmly looking for someone who, for now, wants to be an individual contributor.
  • Get satisfaction predominantly by learning new technologies. We are building something new in an old industry, we need to use boring but proven methods where possible.
  • Currently don't have the right to work in either the UK or the US. We're happy to provide visa support in either direction, but not both.

### What we offer

  • Generous compensation: $160k - $210k cash, 0.8-1.5% equity
  • Full medical insurance
  • Relocation and visa support
