Farsight’s flagship product is our Office Add-in: a native integration inside PowerPoint, Excel, and Word. Rather than asking bankers to leave their existing workflow, we bring Farsight's full AI capabilities into the tools they already live in\nFarsight is also building the first system that learns the judgment, taste, and iteration that goes between a first and final draft for financial deliverables!\nOur Team\nWe're a team built of top-tier ex-banking and engineering talent: Hugging Face, AWS, founding engineers of other startups, JPMorgan, Evercore, General Atlantic, and more.\nWe are entirely based in Manhattan, New York City, and are in-person 4 days a week (except Fridays, which are remote).\nJob Description\nFarsight is building one of the most complex AI products in the market: agentic workflows, streaming outputs, non-deterministic systems, LLM orchestration, and enterprise-grade accuracy requirements.\nYou will be responsible for designing and implementing complete technical systems, informed from business needs and often addressing customer feedback. All while upholding our standard of developing clean, efficient, and ready for change software. The scope of your projects will range from longer term swings to bug fixes alike, each of which crucial to our company's success.\nDesired Qualifications\n2+ years of non-internship software engineering experience\n\nProduction AI and LLM experience: someone who has shipped LLM-powered features to real users, understands how models fail in production, and can build reliable systems around non-deterministic outputs\n\nExperience with Python and cloud-based infrastructure like AWS\n\nSomeone who reasons about failure modes, edge cases, and scale before writing code, comfortable making architectural decisions with incomplete information and adapting when they're wrong\n\nAbove and Beyond Qualifications\nHave previously worked at either an early-stage startup or big tech\n\nUnderstanding of system design patterns and test-driven development techniques in order to create reliable, ready for change code\n\nPrevious experience interacting with customers and receiving customer feedback\n\nCompensation & Benefits\nSalary ranges between $120,000 and $170,000, commensurate with experience\n\nEquity: Meaningful early-stage package with standard vesting (4 year / 1-year cliff)\n\nComprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance\n\nUnlimited PTO\n\nEqual Opportunity\nFarsight is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.
