Responsibilities

  • You'll work side-by-side with Finance subject matter experts to understand how
  • work gets done, identify the highest impact opportunities, and partner with
  • domain teams to chart a transformation plan which balances future ambitions with
  • rapid impact.  You'll work independently to automate manual processes, design
  • and build agents and required data solutions using internal platforms, and
  • enable Finance teams to maintain these solutions long-term.
  • You’ll build with your partner teams, not simply deliver solutions to them.
  • You’ll help colleagues move from a manual workflow, to a first AI-enabled win,
  • to a reliable solution they can confidently operate and improve themselves.
  • Success means the workflow stays transformed after the initial build, the team
  • trusts the output, and the people closest to the process can own what comes
  • next.
  • You’ll favor learning through building. When possible, you’ll put a useful
  • prototype in front of a Finance user, test it against a real deliverable, and
  • improve it quickly rather than spend weeks describing a theoretical future
  • state. When you encounter platform limitations—which you will—you’ll find
  • creative, supportable approaches, collaborate with Engineering to scope and test
  • custom tools, and escalate strategically when needed.
  • This role requires a blend of process automation, data operations, technical
  • problem-solving, and stakeholder enablement. You'll spend your time building
  • agents, optimizing data pipelines that feed them, creating knowledge layers that
  • make them more accurate, and training Finance teams to use and maintain them.
  • Success means Finance teams can independently run agents you've built while you
  • provide light support and focus on the next automation opportunity.
  • opportunities, and translate business, data, and control requirements into
  • practical AI and automation solutions.
  • Build and operationalize AI agents for Finance use cases, delivering
  • end-to-end solutions from prototype through validation, monitoring,
  • documentation, and handoff.
  • Write and optimize SQL for data extraction, transformation, calculation, and
  • validation, ensuring Finance-facing outputs are accurate, explainable, and
  • reliable.
  • Design reusable knowledge layers, evaluation methods, validation patterns,
  • data-quality frameworks, and components that improve agent accuracy and
  • accelerate future use cases.
  • Identify agentic limitations and new possibilities; determine when to use
  • existing capabilities, develop an alternative approach, or partner with
  • Engineering to scope and test custom tools and integrations, including tools
  • using Model Context Protocol where appropriate.
  • Build alongside users, gather feedback through real deliverables, and iterate
  • until the solution fits the workflow and earns user trust.
  • Enable long-term ownership through clear SOPs, runbooks, training, and
  • self-service tooling; coach Finance teams to operate, maintain, and evolve
  • what has been built.
  • Establish monitoring and observability for deployed agents, including
  • metrics, alerting, and incident-response processes that support reliable
  • operation.
  • Diagnose technical and data issues, resolve problems independently where
  • possible, and collaborate with Engineering when solutions require deeper
  • platform changes.
  • Measure adoption and impact, share lessons and wins, and turn successful
  • implementations into standards, components, and playbooks for the broader
  • Finance AI portfolio.

  • programs
  • Hands-on experience building AI-enabled tools, agents, automations, or
  • workflows that changed a real business process—not solely using AI as a
  • conversational tool,
  • Strong SQL proficiency, including experience writing complex queries using
  • CTEs, window functions, and joins for data analysis, transformation, or
  • pipeline logic.
  • A track record of independently scoping and delivering technical solutions
  • for process improvement, demonstrating ownership from problem definition
  • through adoption.
  • Strong analytical and investigative skills, including the ability to identify
  • root causes, debug complex data problems, and resolve inconsistencies.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain
  • technical concepts to non-technical audiences and work effectively with
  • domain experts and Engineering partners.
  • Experience teaching, coaching, enabling users, or transferring ownership of a
  • solution through documentation, training, or self-service tools.
  • Working knowledge of development practices such as version control, testing,
  • code review, and iterative delivery.
  • Experience using low-code tools, scripting, workflow automation, AI-assisted
  • development, or custom integrations, paired with curiosity and the ability to
  • learn evolving technologies.

Preferred

  • (FP&A), Accounting, Treasury, Tax, Payments, or other areas.
  • Familiarity with modern data tools and practices, such as Python, Databricks,
  • ETL/ELT processes, data pipelines, and data-quality controls.
  • Experience with Model Context Protocol or another extensibility or
  • integration framework.
  • Experience navigating financial systems and understanding how data flows
  • through accounting, reporting, reconciliation, forecasting, or payments
  • processes.
  • Experience with change management, organizational transformation, or
  • large-scale enablement programs.
  • Experience building internal tools, templates, components, or playbooks that
  • were adopted beyond the original team or use case.
  • Experience working in a high-growth technology company with rapidly evolving
  • processes and tools.
  • Note on technical depth: This role involves working at the intersection of
  • no-code AI tools and custom development. While software engineering expertise is
  • not required, you should be comfortable applying technical concepts,
  • collaborating closely with Engineering teams, and using AI-assisted development
  • tools to extend platform capabilities when needed.
