## Job description

## 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. We not only give 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 from previous work as 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 As a Platform Engineer at Farsight AI, you’ll lead the design, implementation, and management of infrastructure critical to delivering our cutting-edge AI products. Your work directly impacts premier financial institutions, enabling scalable, reliable, and secure deployments. You will:

- Architect, deploy, and manage robust cloud infrastructure to support advanced generative AI workloads at scale.
- Streamline and optimize our CI/CD platform to maintain rapid and reliable deployments.
- Design and maintain infrastructure-as-code solutions (AWS CDK, CloudFormation) for repeatable and scalable deployments.
- Develop comprehensive monitoring, logging, and observability strategies to maintain high system availability.
- Ensure infrastructure adheres to rigorous security standards and compliance requirements.
- Manage and orchestrate large-scale microservice architectures and their associated communication protocols
- Proactively identify areas for infrastructure improvements, including efficiency, cost optimization, and performance enhancements.

Desired Qualifications

- Experience with AWS and hybrid deployments within regulated industries.
- 4+ years experience in cloud infrastructure engineering, DevOps, or related fields.
- Extensive experience with AWS services (ECS, EC2, Lambda, S3, CloudFront, CloudWatch, CloudFront, RDS, IAM, SSM).
- Proven expertise in containerization technologies (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes, gRPC).
- Deep knowledge of CI/CD pipeline creation and management (AWS CodePipeline, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD).
- Ability to collaborate closely with developers to ensure infrastructure aligns with product requirements.
- Independent problem-solver, motivated to improve efficiency and solve complex infrastructure challenges.
- GCP and Azure experience is a plus.

## Compensation & Benefits

- Salary range: $140,000 to $180,000 annually, commensurate with experience.
- Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance
- Unlimited PTO

## Equal Opportunity

Farsight AI is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer. We celebrate diversity and do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, veteran status, disability, or other applicable legally protected characteristics.

- **Mission or purpose statement**: To become the AI layer used by every top-tier financial institution, replacing manual work with AI workflows that automate deliverables, surface insights, and give teams back time to focus on strategy.

## Products & Services
- **Farsight Platform (Agentic AI Workflows)**: An end-to-end AI system that automates the production of critical client-facing documents. It replicates a firm’s unique voice, formatting, and analytical style to produce complete deliverables like pitch decks, financial models, investment memos, and portfolio analyses. The platform offers proactive strategic suggestions based on CRM data and past deals.
- **Freeform**: A natural language slide editor that allows users to generate precisely-formatted financial deliverables from a single prompt, grounded in deeper analysis and richer narrative.
- **Deployment Options**: Offers flexible, high-security deployment including a Farsight-Hosted VPC, Customer-Cloud, and On-Premise options, with SOC-2 compliance and full end-to-end encryption.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed.
- **Key Metric**: Total Funding of **$16.0M** (Series A, led by SignalFire, July 2025). The company reports that customers save **90%** of time on core deliverables and generate **$10M+** in new opportunities.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Domain-Specific AI**: Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Farsight is purpose-built for the nuanced, high-stakes workflows of finance, replicating a firm’s unique voice, formatting, and analytical style.
- **End-to-End Automation**: The platform produces complete, client-ready documents (decks, models, memos) rather than fragments or text, dramatically reducing production time from weeks to minutes.
- **Best-in-Class Security**: Offers SOC-2 compliance, full end-to-end encryption, and flexible deployment (VPC, Customer-Cloud, On-Premise) with a strict policy of no model training on customer data.
- **Proactive Intelligence**: The system surfaces insights and generates strategic materials proactively based on CRM data and past deals, acting as a "sharpest team member."

## Strategic Focus
- **Product Expansion**: Continuing to build out the "operating system for finance" with new features like Freeform and the integration of acquired Presentable AI.
- **Talent Acquisition**: Aggressively hiring across engineering, sales, and operations to scale the team (currently 31 employees, growing rapidly).
- **Market Penetration**: Deepening its footprint within top-tier financial institutions and expanding its suite of agentic workflows to cover more use cases across investment banking, private equity, and asset management.

## Why Work Here
- **High-Impact Role**: Employees work on a platform that is redefining how the world’s top financial institutions generate insight and drive outcomes, directly impacting multi-million dollar deals.
- **Culture & Team**: A cross-disciplinary team of builders with deep roots in finance, enterprise AI, and product-first thinking, spun out of MIT. The team includes alumni from Goldman Sachs, Amazon Web Services, and Hugging Face.

- **Growth Trajectory**: The company is in a high-growth phase (nearly 200% headcount growth YoY) with significant funding and a clear product-market fit, offering strong career advancement opportunities.
- **Technology Stack**: Engineers work with modern tools including TypeScript, Python, React, AWS, and Slack.
