Role Description

Join a high-growth startup as a foundational engineer building an AI-native platform for M&A and private equity.

This role offers direct influence over the company’s technical future.

Qualifications

• Expert proficiency across the full stack, specifically Python, React/TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and hands-on AWS infrastructure management.
• Proven ability to make sound architectural decisions independently.
• Genuine enthusiasm for leveraging AI to solve fragmented manual workflows.

Requirements

• Design, build, and operate a production SaaS platform using Python (FastAPI), React, and PostgreSQL, ensuring high performance and security.
• Architect and scale cloud infrastructure on AWS using Terraform, ECS, and Lambda while maintaining multi-tenant security and ISO 27001 standards.
• Develop and optimize hybrid search capabilities and data pipelines, integrating LLMs to automate complex research tasks for dealmakers.

Benefits

• Significant ownership as a foundational hire, working directly with the CTO and founders to define engineering standards and product roadmap.
• High-performance technical stack involving AI-driven search, vector databases (pgvector), and agent-based workflows at the frontier of dealmaking technology.
• Strong commercial backing from the BigChange ecosystem and Cambridge AI researchers, moving rapidly toward product-market fit with active early customers.
