We build software for the people who enable trust between businesses.\nWe're based in San Francisco, CA, and built remote-first. We're backed by Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Floodgate, Y Combinator, and more. Over 50 of the top 100 accounting and consulting firms trust Fieldguide to power mission-critical work.\nWe value diversity - in backgrounds and in experiences. We need people from all backgrounds and walks of life to help build the future of audit and advisory. Fieldguide's team is inclusive, driven, humble and supportive. We are deliberate and self-reflective about the kind of team and culture that we are building, seeking teammates that are not only strong in their own aptitudes but care deeply about supporting each other's growth.\nAbout the Role\nYou'll join a genuine 0→1 team on the ground floor of one of the company's biggest new bets. You will work full-stack on long-horizon agents, ship features that do real audit work, and work alongside practitioners.\nDepending on your experience and what you're looking to own, you may join building within a major agent area, owning one end-to-end, or setting technical direction for agentic audit work across the team. We're hiring across all levels and will calibrate during interviews based on scope and demonstrated experience.\nWhat You'll Do\nDesign and build agent-driven experiences for SOX control testing, deciding where autonomy makes sense and where the auditor stays in the loop\n\nOwn complex, end-to-end workstreams across the full stack\n\nMake long agentic runs trustworthy: improve reliability, repeatability, performance, and observability so the same evidence produces the same defensible conclusion every time\n\nTurn agent output into finished audit deliverables, including structured workpapers that adapt to whatever template a firm brings\n\nShip code from day one and ramp quickly into full ownership of significant product areas\n\nCollaborate daily with product managers, designers, and SOX subject matter experts to work through difficult domain problems\n\nHelp shape technical direction and contribute to how the team thinks about agentic systems, AI tooling, and engineering best practices\n\nWho You Are (All Levels)\nA strong full-stack engineer who writes code every day and wants to continue doing so\n\nYou've built with LLMs in production, not just in prototypes. You know what breaks when real users and real documents hit an agent\n\nComfortable in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where you figure things out as you go\n\nEnergized by 0→1 work: you'd rather define the problem than inherit a spec\n\nHigh degree of ownership; you don't wait to be told what to do\n\nA genuine team player across the organization, not just within engineering. You'll work directly with PM, design, domain experts, and customer-facing teams, and you treat that as the best part of the job\n\nAble to pick up complex domain concepts quickly. You don't need to know SOX or internal controls, but you're the kind of person who can internalize it fast\n\nAlready using AI coding tools in your workflow and curious about where agentic approaches create real leverage\n\nHigher-Level Responsibilities\nAt the Senior level, you may:\nLead complex projects or systems, setting technical direction and ensuring long-term health\n\nCollaborate with PMs and designers to shape roadmaps and define architectural tradeoffs\n\nServe as a domain expert within one or more technical areas (e.g., agent orchestration, evaluation and quality, document processing, frontend architecture)\n\nMentor other engineers and help raise the technical bar across the team\n\nAt the Staff level, you may:\nDrive company-level technical initiatives and influence cross-team architecture\n\nSet and champion engineering standards for scalability, security, and performance\n\nPartner with engineering and product leadership to define long-term technical strategy\n\nServe as a trusted advisor to leaders across Engineering, Product, and Design\n\nRepresent Fieldguide externally through writing, speaking, and open-source contributions\n\nExperience\nMust-have:\nShipped LLM-backed product features to production against real users\n\nComfortable full-stack, with enough backend depth to work in agent orchestration\n\nAutonomy working from an ambiguous spec\n\nA collaborative mindset with an ability to work across PM, design, and domain experts\n\nWillingness to develop an Applied AI skillset including writing evals, using LLM observability tools, and being thoughtful about quality\n\nNice-to-have:\nStartup experience, as a founder or as an early engineer\n\nA track record of 0→1 projects you took from nothing to something people use\n\nExperience working directly with customers, and comfort being in the room when they use what you built\n\nExperience in internal audit, SOX, financial services, accounting, or compliance\n\nFamiliarity with our stack: TypeScript, React, GraphQL, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Python, and Temporal\n\nExperience with document processing, PDF/Excel manipulation, or evaluation frameworks for model output\n\nNot a fit if:\nYou’re not interested in deeply learning about Agents\n\nYou’ve never built a product to scale\n\nYou need a fully specified ticket to start\n\nYou'd rather not be in the room with customers and domain experts\n\nWhat Should Excite You\n0→1 on the biggest bet: You're building the agent and the product from scratch, on the ground floor of where the company is going\n\nReal audit stakes: Your work directly affects what firms put in front of their clients, and what a reviewer is willing to sign\n\nCustomer proximity: Design-partner firms and an embedded SOX expert use what you ship within days of it landing\n\nHigh trust, high autonomy: You're given ambiguous problems and trusted to define the plan\n\nBenefits\nCompetitive compensation with equity\n\nComprehensive health and wellness benefits\n\nFlexible time off and work schedules\n\nTechnology reimbursements\n\n401(k) plan\n\nTwice-yearly in-person offsites across the U.S.\n\nWellness benefits starting on your first day\n\nOur Values\nFearless - Inspire and break down seemingly impossible walls\n\nFast - Launch fast with excellence; iterate to perfection\n\nLovable - Deliver happiness and 11-star experiences\n\nOwners - Execute and run the business with ownership\n\nWin-win - Create mutual value and earn trust for life\n\nInclusive - Scale the best ideas with inclusive teams","description_format":"text","description_chars":6603,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Flexible time off"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"},{"name":"San Francisco","iso":null,"kind":"city"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Workflow & Process Automation (RPA, BPM)","Security Compliance"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-17T01:16:01Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 1","filings_12m":1,"filings_prev_12m":3,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":212500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":1}],"liveness":{"score":62,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.83,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":46,"expected_fill_days":64,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:late"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":280000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/fieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/fieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T23:13:49Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":32705,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4121},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4121"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ffieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ffieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ffieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/fieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ffieldguide-software-engineer-internal-audit-all-levels"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":989143}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"fieldguide.io","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":989143},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people);
