About the role

We are seeking to hire an exceptional AI Product Engineer (Full-Stack) to spearhead product innovation and feature development for AI finance workflow automations. You will work closely with the founding team in a fast-paced, agile environment, contributing to all phases of the software development lifecycle—from conception to deployment.

ProSights is a YC-backed AI finance automation company that is eradicating manual data entry with autonomous agents. In the past year, we have onboarded 15 of the 25 largest PE firms and 4 of the top 15 banks without any sales team. Across junior white-collar roles in investing, 15 - 20% of the job is spent copying data into spreadsheets, CRMs, and templates. We eliminate that work by reading unstructured documents, extracting what matters, and writing it directly into firm-specific systems so teams can focus on analysis, judgment, and relationships.

Who We’re Looking For

  • Startup-Minded & Autonomous: Self-starter who thrives with autonomy, driving ideas from concept to execution. Demonstrates a strong willingness to learn new concepts beyond their comfort zone in a fast-paced environment.
  • Real-World Experience: Strong experience working with production-grade codebases, either at a prior company or through high-impact personal projects. Our codebase is powerful but highly complex, supporting heavy daily usage across the world’s largest financial institutions.
  • AI & LLM Proficiency: Strong understanding of modern AI capabilities to build intelligent, production-grade apps. Comfortable exploring prompts, fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, and integrating AI into core products.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of experience as a full-stack developer or similar role
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field
  • Strong proficiency in Typescript and Python

Bonus Qualifications

  • Technical skills: Rust, Go, C#, Gaming, Mobile App Development
  • Experience: Founder or experience at an early-stage startup
  • Interests: Open source contributions or interesting passion projects

What We Offer

  • Opportunity to lead the development of our core extraction tech that powers thousands of enterprise users
  • Freedom and access to experiment with cutting edge tech: foundational models, open source libraries, cloud providers, dev tools, and other 3rd-party vendors
  • Direct collaboration with the founding team, shaping both culture and product direction
  • Access to NYC startup network and YC community
  • Significant equity as an early technical hire

Culture

  • Navy-SEAL small team ethos with bias to ship value, not just features.
  • Sponsor any visas (including O-1, H-1B1).
  • In-office Mon-Fri (5 days in-person in our Chelsea office)
  • We keep everyone operating at peak performance sustainably:
    • 2-3 hours blocked daily after 6:30pm for workouts/dinner
    • Subsidized gym membership
    • Office nutrition and supplements provided

About the interview

  • Round 1: 30-minute conversation with a ProSights co-founder
  • Round 2: 30-minute conversation with CTO, potential 10-20 hour virtual case study to ensue (paid)
  • Trial: 1-3 day on-site work trial in NYC (paid), with a virtual option available if appropriate.
