About Farsight AI
Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches. We not only give them that time back to focus on what is important, but we also bring new insights and knowledge to their materials that they wouldn’t be able to uncover without the help of our financial-focused AI.
Our Team
Our team has had a wide range of experience that uniquely equips us to capture this massive opportunity. Our team comes from leading financial institutions like Evercore, General Atlantic and Menlo Ventures, supercharged by scalable engineering and AI skills from companies including Amazon, Hugging Face and the MIT Media Lab.

We are entirely based in Manhattan, New York City, and are in-person 4 days a week (except Fridays, which are remote).
The Role
Farsight operates at the cutting edge of AI to deliver human-like work within some of the world's largest and most critical financial organizations. As a Frontend Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and building the interfaces through which our users experience that work. You'll be turning powerful agentic outputs into seamless, intuitive product experiences for investment banking, private equity, and more!
You will work directly at the interface between customer and product, moving quickly to address real feedback while upholding our standard of clean, efficient, and ready-for-change software.

Job Description
As an AI Engineer at Farsight AI, you'll play a critical role in advancing our state-of-the-art AI platform. You will:
Design, build, and own agentic systems that produce client-ready financial deliverables — decks, models, and memos — end to end, from data ingestion to polished output.
Build the evaluation and quality systems behind generated deliverables: deterministic document checks, model-judged review, grounding and fidelity verification, and regression suites for non-deterministic outputs.
Turn proprietary data from our platform and customers into evidence-backed insight — building pipelines that discover, quantify, and verify patterns, and feed them back into how our systems draft and check.
Build and refine the retrieval systems that ground our deliverables in unstructured and structured financial data, ensuring every number and claim traces to its source.
Drive the next generation of agentic capabilities on the Farsight platform — composability, advanced function calling, and modular orchestration.
Shape what we build next: ideate directly on customer value, and help prioritize across time-to-market, execution risk, and impact.
Desired Qualifications
2+ years of experience deploying machine learning or LLM systems in production.
Experience building agentic systems: function calling, tool use, orchestration, and the reliability engineering that keeps multi-step systems on the rails.
Experience building and validating evaluations for LLM systems. You know why \"ask a model to rate it 1–10\" isn't an answer.
Experience building retrieval over unstructured and structured data, and working with documents as structured artifacts (mixed text, numeric, and tabular content; document formats and their internals; rendered-output analysis).
A real, evolving AI-assisted development workflow, with a verification story proportional to what you delegate.
Strong Python proficiency and deep, current fluency with frontier model APIs and their capabilities.
Above and Beyond Qualifications
Experience evaluating generated documents or other complex, client-facing deliverables — especially combining deterministic checks with model-based judging.
Experience extracting reliable, quantified patterns from large, noisy real-world datasets — discovery pipelines where every claimed finding traces back to specific evidence.
Deep familiarity with financial data, documents, and workflows.
Compensation & Benefits
Salary range: $200,000 to $300,000 annually, commensurate with experience.
Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance
Unlimited PTO
Note: You'll need valid U.S. work authorization to join us.
Please note that a background check and employment verification may be required for this position. We may obtain one or more background screening reports about you, solely for employment purposes.
Equal Opportunity
Farsight is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer. We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, color, national origin, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, gender expression, transgender status, sexual stereotypes, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, or other applicable legally protected characteristics.

About Us
Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches.
Farsight is partnered with S&P Global and has the opportunity to shape the future of financial services!
Our team comes from Evercore, General Atlantic, Amazon, Hugging Face, founding engineers of other startups, and plenty more!
The Role
Farsight is moving fast, and as our product and enterprise customer base scale, the way we coordinate work across our technical teams has become one of our highest priorities. This role exists to make that happen.
As our Technical Project Manager, you will sit at the intersection of our Software Engineering, AI, and Infrastructure & Security teams. You will own our application lifecycle management process end to end: every project — from enterprise feature commitments to internal platform work — will run through the process you operate, with clear requirements, owners, sequencing, and timelines at every stage.
You will work as the direct counterpart to our Product Manager. The Product Manager brings priorities, requirements, and customer context in from our GTM org; you turn those into scoped, sequenced, and tracked projects across the technical teams, and deliver realistic timelines — built from estimates by the engineers doing the work — back up so GTM always knows where things stand. Together, you and the Product Manager will jointly prioritize the roadmap based on customer importance on one side and engineering cost, dependencies, and duration on the other.
Today, much of this coordination is done ad hoc by our engineers on top of their day jobs. Your success means they never have to do it again.
This is not a coordination role for someone who likes to run meetings. It is a high-ownership, high-impact position for someone who gets uncomfortable when things are unclear and fixes them. This is a role reporting to our COO!
What You'll Do
Own our application lifecycle management process end to end — every project moves through clearly defined stages with documented requirements, owners, and definitions of done, and you make sure nothing gets lost, stalled, or misunderstood along the way
Build project timelines from estimates provided by the engineers doing the work, track progress against them, and communicate status and changes to the Product Manager and GTM org so expectations always match reality
Partner with the Product Manager to jointly prioritize projects, weighing customer and GTM importance against engineering effort, dependencies, and tradeoffs
Coordinate requirements, sequencing, and dependencies across the Software Engineering, AI, and Infrastructure & Security teams — including the security and scalability work required to take features from working to enterprise-ready — so no team is blocking another
Manage projects with hard customer deadlines: identify risks early, and when things take longer than expected, drive the decision on what to cut, resequence, or renegotiate to get delivery back on track
Take coordination and process work off our engineers' plates so they can focus on building
Run sprint planning, standups, and retrospectives with a focus on velocity and clarity, not ceremony
Surface blockers early, escalate when needed, and drive resolution without creating overhead
What We're Looking For
4+ years of experience in technical project management, program management, or a closely related role, ideally at a startup or high-growth tech company
Strong technical fluency: you don't need to write code, but you need to understand how software gets built, what makes something technically complex, and why timelines slip
Proven ability to coordinate across multiple technical teams — software engineering, AI/ML, infrastructure, DevOps, security — and translate between them
Experience building realistic delivery timelines from engineering estimates and holding teams accountable to them without burning trust
Highly organized with a low tolerance for ambiguity: you create clarity where others leave things vague
Above and Beyond Qualifications
Experience at an AI-native startup where non-deterministic systems added coordination complexity
Experience delivering into enterprise environments with security, compliance, or infrastructure requirements
Experience introducing or operating a project lifecycle process at a company that didn't have one before
Compensation
Base salary range of $130,000–$180,000. Commensurate with experience
Equity: Meaningful early-stage package with standard vesting (4 year / 1-year cliff)
Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance
Unlimited PTO

This is a role reporting to our COO!\n\n\n\nWhat You'll Do\n\n - Own our application lifecycle management process end to end — every project moves through clearly defined stages with documented requirements, owners, and definitions of done, and you make sure nothing gets lost, stalled, or misunderstood along the way\n\n - Build project timelines from estimates provided by the engineers doing the work, track progress against them, and communicate status and changes to the Product Manager and GTM org so expectations always match reality\n\n - Partner with the Product Manager to jointly prioritize projects, weighing customer and GTM importance against engineering effort, dependencies, and tradeoffs\n\n - Coordinate requirements, sequencing, and dependencies across the Software Engineering, AI, and Infrastructure & Security teams — including the security and scalability work required to take features from working to enterprise-ready — so no team is blocking another\n\n - Manage projects with hard customer deadlines: identify risks early, and when things take longer than expected, drive the decision on what to cut, resequence, or renegotiate to get delivery back on track\n\n - Take coordination and process work off our engineers' plates so they can focus on building\n\n - Run sprint planning, standups, and retrospectives with a focus on velocity and clarity, not ceremony\n\n - Surface blockers early, escalate when needed, and drive resolution without creating overhead\n\nWhat We're Looking For\n\n - 4+ years of experience in technical project management, program management, or a closely related role, ideally at a startup or high-growth tech company\n\n - Strong technical fluency: you don't need to write code, but you need to understand how software gets built, what makes something technically complex, and why timelines slip\n\n - Proven ability to coordinate across multiple technical teams — software engineering, AI/ML, infrastructure, DevOps, security — and translate between them\n\n - Experience building realistic delivery timelines from engineering estimates and holding teams accountable to them without burning trust\n\n - Highly organized with a low tolerance for ambiguity: you create clarity where others leave things vague\n\n\n\nAbove and Beyond Qualifications\n\n - Experience at an AI-native startup where non-deterministic systems added coordination complexity\n\n - Experience delivering into enterprise environments with security, compliance, or infrastructure requirements\n\n - Experience introducing or operating a project lifecycle process at a company that didn't have one before\n\n\n\nCompensation\n\n - Base salary range of $130,000–$180,000. Commensurate with experience\n\n - Equity: Meaningful early-stage package with standard vesting (4 year / 1-year cliff)\n\n - Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance\n\n - Unlimited PTO\n\n \n \n\nFarsight AI is an equal opportunity employer.\n\nFarsight is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.

Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches.
Farsight is partnered with S&P Global and has the opportunity to shape the future of financial services!
Our team comes from Evercore, General Atlantic, Amazon, Hugging Face, founding engineers of other startups, and plenty more!
The Role
Farsight has strong product-market fit, real traction at the most demanding institutions in finance, and a distribution partnership with S&P Global that puts us inside the workflow of hundreds of thousands of investment banking and private equity professionals. What we need now is someone to build the sales motion that turns that momentum into a repeatable, scalable revenue machine.
As VP of Sales, you will own Farsight's revenue. You will build and lead the sales team, define the go-to-market motion, and personally close the most strategic deals. You will work directly with our CEO, the Strategy & Ops team, and our GTM team to develop the pipeline, refine the pitch, and bring in the customers that define Farsight's next chapter.
This is a founding sales leadership role. The person who takes this seat will shape how Farsight goes to market, builds its sales culture, and scales from double-digit customers to hundreds.
What You'll Do
Own Farsight's revenue number and be accountable for hitting it
Build, hire, and lead a high-performing sales team from the ground up, starting with SDRs and AEs
Personally lead and close strategic enterprise deals at bulge bracket banks, elite boutiques, and top-tier PE firms
Define and refine Farsight's sales motion, playbook, and process from first contact to close
Partner closely with the StratOps team to ensure seamless handoff from sales to customer success
Work with product and engineering to translate customer feedback into roadmap input
Develop pricing and packaging strategy in partnership with leadership
Build relationships at the most senior levels of Farsight's target accounts
Represent Farsight at industry events and in market conversations that drive awareness and pipeline
Report directly to CEO with full visibility into company strategy and direction
What We're Looking For
8+ years of enterprise sales experience with at least 3 years in a sales leadership role
Proven track record closing complex, high-value enterprise deals in financial services, enterprise software, or AI
Deep understanding of investment banking and private equity workflows, either from selling into this market or from direct experience in it
Experience building and scaling a sales team from early stage through growth
Exceptional relationship builder who can earn the trust of senior bankers, partners, and CIOs
Strong commercial instincts around pricing, positioning, and deal structure
Comfortable operating at a fast-moving Series A startup where you are building the playbook, not following one
NYC-based and committed to in-person collaboration
Above and Beyond Qualifications
Prior experience selling AI or data products into financial services
Existing relationships at major investment banks or PE firms
Experience navigating procurement and compliance at large financial institutions
Prior experience as a first sales hire or head of sales at a startup that scaled successfully
Compensation
Base Salary: $175,000 to $225,000. Commensurate with experience
On-Target Earnings (OTE): $350,000 to $450,000 (60/40 base-to-variable split)
Variable Structure:
Commission tied to ARR closed
Accelerators for performance above quota
Renewal and expansion bonuses tied to net revenue retention
Equity: Meaningful early-stage package with standard vesting (4 year/1-year cliff)
Comprehensive medical, dental and vision insurance
Unlimited PTO
About Farsight AI
Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions will spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches.
Farsight not only gives them that time back to focus on what is important, but we also bring new insights and knowledge to their materials that they wouldn't be able to uncover without the help of our financial-focused AI.
What You Will Work On
Rebrand rollout. Update all our existing material to the new identity — one-pagers, decks, email templates, LinkedIn assets etc.
Sales collateral. One-pagers, pitch decks, case studies.
Email. Design and build campaign emails in HubSpot, plus reusable templates for the team.
Social and campaigns. LinkedIn and campaign assets, static and motion.
Events and trade shows. Booth graphics, banners, signage, printed leave-behinds, and event-specific collateral.
Product video. Short walkthroughs, how-tos, and demo clips. Script through final export, including screen capture, editing, and audio.
Templates. Build files our team can reuse without coming back to you.
Input. Tell us when a brief is unclear or when there's a better angle. We're open to your thoughts on marketing, not just design.
What You Will Bring
3+ years in B2B marketing or brand design
Experience with AI companies or startups
A portfolio that shows strong craft across typography, composition, and storytelling with a premium visual taste and polish.
Comfortable with print and large-format production: booth graphics, signage, and working to a printer's specs
You use AI tools in your workflows
You can handle several requests at once and work to tight deadlines
You take minimal direction and run with it
Tools
Adobe Creative Suite: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro
Figma
PowerPoint: our decks are Office-native and need to stay editable by our sales team
Canva: where our team-facing templates live
HubSpot: where our emails go out
Screen recording: Screen Studio, CleanShot, Loom, or similar
Bonus
Experience designing for finance or another detail-heavy audience
