About Us

We're a fast-growing NYC financial services company building aggressive automation systems to scale operations, streamline communication, and modernize how business gets done.

We move fast, solve problems quickly, and care about results. We're looking for someone technical, sharp, and obsessed with AI, automation, APIs, and building systems that actually drive revenue and efficiency.

If you've built automations, connected platforms together, experimented with AI workflows, or created systems that eliminate manual work — this role is for you.

This is not a corporate IT role. We want builders.

The Role

We're hiring an AI Automation Engineer to help us connect systems, automate workflows, optimize communication pipelines, and implement advanced AI-powered processes across the business.

You'll work directly with leadership to identify bottlenecks, engineer solutions, and build scalable automations that improve speed, efficiency, and output across multiple departments.

We want someone who understands how to make systems talk to each other and how to leverage AI tools to create real operational leverage.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building and maintaining automations across multiple platforms and systems
• Connecting software using APIs, webhooks, and custom integrations
• Creating AI-powered workflows and operational tools
• Streamlining communication systems and internal processes
• Optimizing CRM workflows, outreach systems, and operational pipelines
• Testing and implementing new AI tools and automation technologies
• Troubleshooting broken workflows and improving system performance
• Working alongside leadership to rapidly deploy new technical solutions

What We're Looking For

Required

• Real-world experience building automations and integrations
• Strong understanding of APIs, webhooks, and workflow logic
• Experience with tools like Zapier, Make, n8n, or similar platforms
• Familiarity with AI tools and APIs (OpenAI, Claude, etc.)
• Ability to code in Python, JavaScript, or similar languages
• Strong technical problem-solving ability
• Comfortable figuring things out independently without hand-holding
• Fast learner who thrives in high-speed environments

Huge Plus If You Have

• Experience building AI-driven workflows or conversational systems
• CRM integration experience
• Experience with Twilio, SendGrid, Slack APIs, or communication platforms
• Familiarity with LangChain, vector databases, MCPs, or AI orchestration tools
• Startup experience or experience working in high-output environments
• Built systems that directly improved operations, sales, or efficiency

Who You Are

• You're obsessed with AI and automation
• You build things for fun
• You've probably automated parts of your own life already
• You care more about solving problems than job titles
• You move quickly and adapt even faster
• You like being around ambitious, competitive people
• You want to work somewhere where your output actually matters

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary + bonus opportunities
• Direct access to leadership and real decision-making power
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI and automation systems
• Fast-paced NYC office environment
• Massive growth opportunity as the company scales
• Real ownership and ability to build impactful systems from the ground up

To Apply

Send us:

• Your resume
• GitHub, portfolio, or examples of systems/automations you've built
• A short explanation of the most impressive automation or integration you've ever created

We care far more about what you've built than where you went to school.
