The posting

About Farsight AI

Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches.

Farsight not only gives them that time back to focus on what is important, but we also bring new insights and knowledge to their materials that they wouldn’t be able to uncover without the help of our financial-focused AI.

Our Team

Our team has had a wide range of experience that uniquely equips us to capture this massive opportunity. Our team comes from leading financial institutions like Evercore, General Atlantic and Menlo Ventures, supercharged by scalable engineering and AI skills from companies including Amazon, Hugging Face and the MIT Media Lab. We've learned the ins and outs of building successful startups with a team of former founders and founding engineers. We focus on hiring the best so that we can become the best, so we hope you apply!

We are entirely based in Manhattan, New York City, and are in-person 4 days a week (except Fridays, which are remote).

Job Description

Farsight operates at the cutting-edge of AI to deliver human-like work within some of the world’s largest, and most critical, financial organizations. We have an extensive backlog from customer demand along with immense opportunities for product innovation. As such, we require someone that will not only ship features but will also move the ball forward towards a unified and expansive platform offering.

You will have full ownership of projects that you will have to design, implement, and deploy at scale in a highly fluid and fast-paced startup environment. While you will have to create clean, efficient, and ready-for-change software, you will also have to listen to customer feedback, prioritize work streams, and gauge quality of outputs with a critical lens. On the software side specifically, your work will range from longer-term research projects to bug fixes alike - all of which crucial to our company’s success.

Farsight is a highly collaborative environment where you and your highly motivated, passionate team members will continuously be working together to create new technology and applications that deliver the robust, accurate, market-changing solutions that our customers have come to expect.

Desired Qualifications

- 4+ years of full-time software engineering experience

- Deep knowledge and experience with building full-stack, user-friendly applications ready for scale

- Experience with Typescript, Python, and cloud-based infrastructure like AWS

- Strong interest in learning and understanding generative AI technology and the current, rapidly evolving landscape

- Experience working in unstructured environments, where you took full autonomy in delivering projects from conception to deployment

- You are intrinsically motivated and self-critical of your work, two aspects that are important for rapid innovation on a lean team

- Are able to effectively communicate with and collaborate with a growing team

- Bring a positive and fun attitude to the workplace!

Above and Beyond Qualifications

- Former early engineer or founder at a fast-growing startup

- Previous AI research and/or interactions with AI systems, including utilizing closed-source models, fine-tuning and spinning up open-sourced models, etc.

- Deep understanding of scalable system design, performance optimization, and resilience engineering

- Extensive front-end experience in tandem with some experience in UI / UX design work

- Previous experience interacting with customers and receiving customer feedback

- Have leadership experience in a technical position

Compensation & Benefits

- Base salary ranges between $170,000 and $200,000 annually depending on level of experience of the applicant.

- Equity: Meaningful early-stage package with standard vesting (4 year / 1-year cliff)

- Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance

- Unlimited PTO

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
