About the Opportunity
Our client is an applied AI company building accounting software that automates financial workflows for entrepreneurs. Backed by $20M from OpenAI Startup Fund, General Catalyst, and Google Ventures, the team is scaling rapidly ahead of a planned Series A.

* Strong AWS or GCP infrastructure experience
* Practical CI/CD and deployment knowledge
* Solid observability and on-call practices
* Experience operating in fast-paced startup environments
Nice to Have
* Early-stage or scaling startup background
* Exposure to AI/ML-powered products
* Experience working without heavy PM structure
* Python or Ruby familiarity
* DevOps or Terraform experience
* Finance or accounting domain exposure
Why This Role Stands Out
* Backed by top-tier investors (OpenAI Startup Fund, GV, GC)
* Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
* High ownership in a scaling AI product company
