Backed by top-tier venture capital firms including Afore Capital, Audacious Ventures, and Caesar Ventures, we partner with leading consulting firms and investors to unlock new ways of working. Our AI-powered platform delivers expert insights in days rather than weeks, revolutionizing how our clients conduct due diligence, competitive intelligence, and market research. Our culture values speed, entrepreneurial thinking, and the drive to win. As we continue our rapid growth, we're looking for exceptional engineers who want to build world-class AI systems and help shape the future of AI in business. ## The Role We are looking for an experienced Senior AI Software Engineer to join us at one of the most exciting moments in Synquery's growth. This is a broad, high-impact role — you will have your fingerprints across the full product, working directly alongside the CTO to design and build the systems that power our platform end-to-end. Our platform processes hundreds of thousands of data points across a sophisticated expert network automation pipeline: identifying the right experts, vetting their credentials, confirming availability and mutual fit, and running AI-driven interviews that extract meaningful insights — all delivered to some of the most demanding clients in consulting and investing. The technical challenges are real, the stakes are high, and the pace is fast. At our core, we are on a mission to give everyone access to expert-level answers to questions that have no digital answer — the kind of knowledge that lives only in the minds of people who have spent decades in an industry. You will be building the AI infrastructure that makes that possible: resilient, scalable, and genuinely pushing the frontier of what agentic AI can do in the real world. ## What You'll Do Delivery & Execution - Balance two modes of engineering excellence: pushing the boundaries of what's possible with innovative AI-driven automation through rapid PoCs, and delivering the high-quality, production-ready agentic solutions that our clients depend on - Be a strong and reliable partner — own projects end-to-end with a high on-time delivery rate, from early prototype to production release - Hit the ground running: within your first 30 days, deliver a working prototype of an agentic solution integrated into our Sourcing pipeline Architecture & Engineering Standards - Design and build extremely resilient, horizontally scalable systems that support the business as it grows in speed and complexity - Champion extensible, clean interfaces so new features can be added without reworking existing foundations - Proactively collaborate with security teams to meet compliance requirements (e.g. SOC2) and maintain our uptime standards AI Engineering, Product Collaboration and Culture - Work closely with the CTO, Ops, and Product to translate customer and business needs into well-designed AI solutions — agentic AI is core to what we build and you'll be at the center of it - Be an active contributor to our engineering culture: share relevant articles, research, or learnings with the team regularly and promote a mindset of continuous improvement and personal accountability ## What We're Looking For - Experience: 5+ years as a Python developer, with strong depth across web development, distributed systems, and AI — including LLMs and agentic systems - AI, GenAI & Agentic AI: 5+ years building on a strong foundation in traditional AI — ML, NLP, statistical learning — complemented by demonstrated hands-on experience with LLM frameworks and agentic tooling such as LangChain, LangSmith, LiveKit, Pipecat, or equivalent - Engineering Fundamentals: Excellent command of OOP and functional programming; expertise in scalable, high-reliability system design - Security & Compliance: Familiarity with compliance standards such as SOC2 and a proactive approach to working with security teams - Collaboration: Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders; you write clean code and give clear, constructive code reviews - Mindset: Passion for innovation, continuous improvement, and personal accountability — you thrive in a fast-paced environment and don't wait to be told what to do - Travel: This role may require occasional domestic and international travel; all standard travel expenses are covered per company policy Why Join Synquery? - Be at the forefront of AI research and real-world deployment - Work on hard technical problems that directly shape our product and platform - Join a high-growth startup backed by leading investors - Competitive salary, benefits, and meaningful equity package ⚡ Synquery is for people who want to win.

The company is in a high-growth phase with strong investor backing. - **Tech Stack**: Modern infrastructure including PostgreSQL, Python, Kubernetes, Docker, and React — appealing for engineers who want to work on AI-native products. - **Founding Team**: Led by experienced founders from consulting and expert network backgrounds (BCG, BCG X) who deeply understand the problem they're solving. ## Sources 1.
