We build governance and intelligence infrastructure that enables artificial intelligence to operate safely, explainably, and at institutional scale.

By combining AI with deep institutional infrastructure, we help financial institutions deliver more personalized, responsible, and life-changing financial support to millions of individuals. We’re building mission-critical systems in a highly regulated domain, and we care deeply about doing it right. If you’re motivated by meaningful problems, high standards, and shaping infrastructure that improves financial outcomes, you’ll feel at home here.

You'll own our GCP infrastructure, build out scalable environments, and establish the standards and tooling that make our engineers productive. At the same time, you'll be the guardian of our security posture and compliance commitments, ensuring we meet NIST and SOC-2 requirements without slowing down innovation. What You'll Do Enable Engineering Velocity Build and maintain our GCP infrastructure, creating consistent, repeatable environments across development, staging, and production Design and implement CD pipeline standards that enable teams to deploy confidently and frequently Develop internal tooling, templates, and automation that reduce friction for software engineers Create
