Why Artifact AI
Artifact AI exists to redefine the future of accounting. We’re building the world’s first truly agentic accounting platform—one that eliminates manual work entirely and positions accountants in their highest-value role as trusted advisors. From real-time understanding of every bill and invoice through to perfectly reconciled, audit-ready ledgers, our agents operate end-to-end inside the systems firms already trust. This is not a marginal improvement. This is the foundation of a new profession. We want you to be part of it.

What we’re looking for:
- You’ve hit the top tier in something hard. That could be IOI / ICPC / top ~1% Codeforces, a serious medal in math/physics, national-level sport, elite-level music — or any craft where “good” isn’t remotely close to “best.”

- You understand what real excellence costs: years of repetition, brutal feedback loops, tradeoffs, and consistency when nobody’s watching.

- You don’t deliver “your piece.” You deliver the outcome. If the system is slow, unstable, insecure, or fragile — that’s still on you.

- You’re fine operating without perfect specs. You can navigate ambiguity, define the problem, and hold yourself to a high bar without needing to be pushed.

- You’re not here for comfort. This isn’t a 9–5, and it’s not designed to be.

- You believe “huge teams” are often a symptom — a patch for fuzzy thinking, bad architecture and week leadership.

- You care way too much about data models and invariants, because you’ve watched systems decay when people treat modeling like paperwork.

Strong signals (big bonus):
Background at top-tier tech / AI / quant shops
Founder or early-stage startup experience
Experience working with financial data

This is intentionally not a broad search.
If you’ve proven—somewhere in your life—that you can operate at the extreme end of the performance curve, and you want to apply that intensity to building something meaningful at Artifact AI, let’s talk.
