Each posting is classified from its text, not its title: the kind of work, how much of it is production code, pre-sales weight, time at customer sites, travel, remote arrangement, level and posted base pay. The site also publishes the aggregates: median pay by level, metro, company and kind of work, and which companies started hiring FDEs each week.

## The job description from Obin AI

Posted by Obin AI on Feb 5, 2026

### Build the AI workforce that finance can actually trust.

### We are closing the gap between what AI promises and what regulated institutions can responsibly deploy.

### If you fall in love with hard problems — not easy answers — this is where your work matters.

### The Role

We're looking for **AI Engineers** who can help us build and scale intelligent agents from the ground up. You'll work directly with the founders (ex-Google) and own key technical decisions from day one.

### You’ll be

**Designing and Deploying LLM-Powered Agents**

Build agentic systems using LLMs and RAG to automate complex credit workflows. This includes prompt design, tool use, orchestration logic, and system evaluation.

**Working Directly with Customers**

Partner with technical and non-technical stakeholders at major credit firms to understand workflow pain points and co-develop AI solutions that directly tie to ROI.

**Owning Production Infrastructure**

Architect and maintain backend systems and APIs that connect to data sources and customer platforms. Ensure high availability, performance, and observability.

**Evaluating and Optimizing Systems**

Balance accuracy, latency, reliability, cost, and explainability in our agentic systems. Lead rigorous experimentation and improvement cycles.

**Contributing to Core Platform Design**

Define technical architecture, build reusable infrastructure for agent deployment, and shape the foundation of Obin’s AI engineering best practices.

**Setting Culture and Standards**

Help define Obin’s engineering culture, hiring bar, and long-term technical roadmap

We believe great AI Engineers come from diverse backgrounds and are unified by deep curiosity, pragmatism, and engineering excellence.

### Experience Required

- 3-5+ years of software engineering experience
- 1+ years of hands-on experience building LLM-based agents and/or RAG systems in production
- Logging, evaluating, optimizing AI applications
- Proficiency in Python and experience with modern AI/ML frameworks and cloud infrastructure (GCP preferred)
- Experience with cloud infra (preferably GCP) and APIs
- Hunger to move fast, own outcomes, and build something enduring
- Strong intuition around system architecture, performance, and scaling
- Clear communication, especially in ambiguous, high-stakes problem spaces

### Bonus

- Experience with human-in-the-loop systems, feedback loops, and long-horizon agentic task execution
- Background in financial systems, risk modeling, or decision automation
- Familiarity with PydanticAI, LlamaIndex, Google ADK, Claude Agent SDK, or similar frameworks
- You’ve built or contributed to an internal AI platform or reusable LLM tooling

### Base compensation range

$150,000 - $180,000

Plus **Annual Bonus + Equity**
