This is a rare, foundational hire: Mercor's first Agentic Finance Engineer. You'll sit at the intersection of finance, data engineering, and applied AI — building the systems and infrastructure that power how our finance and corporate operations team runs
You will design and deploy the modern data and automation stack from the ground up: architecting scalable financial data models, integrating AI agents into real workflows, and turning manual, spreadsheet-driven processes into reliable, production-grade systems
The ideal candidate has deep finance domain knowledge — you understand how the books actually close, how procurement flows, how revenue is recognized — and the technical fluency to translate that understanding into durable, automated systems. You're equally comfortable in a SQL editor and in a conversation with the CFO, and you're energized by building in a zero-to-one environment
Own the Agentic Finance roadmap – prioritizing use cases and driving features from ideation to deployment
Identify high-value automation opportunities across Finance and corporate operations — month-end close tasks, reconciliations, procurement workflows, variance analysis — and ship solutions that eliminate manual work
Build intelligent, reliable automation via agents (in partnership with engineering teams), AI-powered tools, and multi-step ETL jobs into live finance workflows, using APIs (including frontier models)
Build internal tooling that Finance teams actually use: lightweight apps, workflow automations, and AI-assisted processes that save meaningful time at scale
Stay at the frontier of what's possible with AI in Finance (meeting other finance teams, reading research, etc.), and proactively bring new capabilities to bear on Mercor's highest-leverage operational problems
