Founding Engineer

Company Description: VC-backed wealth tech startup

Job Description:
Join as a founding engineer to build an AI-native personal financial intelligence platform. You will design secure data pipelines, life-event simulators, and tax optimization engines that automate complex wealth management moves. This role offers the chance to own entire systems end-to-end and build technology that democratizes sophisticated financial advice for younger generations.

Location: San Francisco, USA

Why this role is remarkable:

• Opportunity to join as a founding team member and shape the core architecture of a zero-to-one product.

• Founded by a team with elite backgrounds from Stanford and IIT who have built AI systems for millions of users.

• Backed by recent funding to solve the wealth gap through advanced automation rather than simple dashboards.

What you will do:

• Architect secure, SOC 2 compliant data pipelines to aggregate and structure complex financial documents.

• Develop AI agents and simulation engines that model downstream impacts of major financial decisions.

• Take full ownership of the engineering lifecycle, including design, implementation, testing, and production monitoring.

The ideal candidate:

• At least 3+ years of experience shipping production-grade software to real users in a fast-paced environment.

• Deep familiarity with AI-first workflows and building native applications using Large Language Models.

• A systems-thinker with an ownership mentality who thrives in ambiguous, high-growth startup settings.

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.
