Founding AI / ML Engineer
Concourse is seeking a Founding AI Engineer to lead the engineering efforts of its AI agents for corporate finance teams. This role involves building and scaling infrastructure, fine-tuning models, integrating finance data sources, and experimenting with the latest AI advancements to enhance product functionality and accuracy.
Concourse is building AI agents for corporate finance teams. Concourse works alongside finance teams to assist in day-to-day operations by taking on the most manual and time-consuming work. Core to the platform is an AI analyst tailor-built for finance teams that is available at any hour of the day, accessible via natural language, and built with full connectivity to a company’s existing financial systems. It enables team members to more effectively retrieve and analyze data, generate charts and reports, and answer ad-hoc questions.
At its core, Concourse is reimagining how companies interact with financial data. Traditional finance tools haven’t changed in decades, teams still rely on fragmented point solutions and static spreadsheets. Our mission is not only to automate routine tasks but to transform decision-making by giving finance teams a deeper understanding and generating net-new insights into business performance.
Since launching less than a year ago, Concourse has grown rapidly. Our AI agents are deployed across 50+ customers, including unicorn startups (Persona, Front, Lightmatter) and large public companies (including a Fortune 500). Concourse is a Y Combinator company backed by Andreessen Horowitz, CRV, and 50+ angel investors from companies like Brex, Rippling, Flywire, and DoorDash.
We’re actively hiring for a Founding AI Engineer to assist & lead the engineering efforts of our AI agents. We’re looking for someone who is extremely passionate about AI and its potential to fundamentally change the way work is done across the enterprise. We work with large customers + large amounts of data, so a passion for building production grade agents with best-in-class performance is important to be successful in this role.
We’re looking for someone who is excited about the prospect of joining a lean & high-powered team and tackling the problem space head-on. The right candidate will have a combination of high ownership mentality, infectious energy, and technical expertise to move the company and engineering organization forward.
We are still in the early innings of AI adoption and the deployment of AI agents into the enterprise. You have experience building software products with a key focus on building with LLMs and specifically have pushed AI agents in production. Ideally you are doing this every day but you may have hacked together your own LLM based projects for fun, or are deeply passionate about the space. We’re all in on AI and want you to bring that same passion for the technology and its potential application within finance. You also have experience in prompt engineering and keep up with the latest news & advancements in AI. If you’ve built in fintech, saas, or enterprise technology, this is a plus.
We’re a team of ex-founders & early-stage startup employees. We strongly believe in building a team of self-starters and highly entrepreneurial founding members to create a culture of ownership and autonomy that can handle the ambiguities of fast-paced startups. You have either started a company, been an early startup employee, or someday want to start a company. You want to do some of the best work of your career at Concourse with a very high level of drive & passion.
We’re a small team that asks a lot of everyone who joins it in an effort to build a winning culture. Being able to operate independently, figure out solutions on your own, and having the determination to deliver are all important to be successful at Concourse. At Concourse, things move very quickly, decisions are fast, and we lean heavily on each member to contribute effectively to the product. Going above and beyond and having the energy and drive to crush goals and deadlines is essential to being successful.
You are adept at thinking through challenging technical issues using a variety of tools, including but not limited to: Masterful use of debuggers, quick prototyping and testing of potential solutions, online resources, and your own brain. You will succeed if you like thinking through challenges, finding solutions, and offering creative ways to make an impact.
We offer top-of-the-market compensation in both cash and equity. We want to stay lean and mean with a world-class team and will compensate as such.
Every day will be a new opportunity to learn and expand your skill set. We are focused on increasing the pace of learning for everyone at the company. If you are continuously curious and focused on improving your skills & domain expertise at work, Concourse will be a great fit for you.
As a founding team member, we will look to you to own parts of the product, code base, and culture of the company. We will look for your point of view, feedback, and suggestions, and give you room to run with your ideas.
