About the job
Lead the architecture and reliability of a global platform that extracts and normalizes financial data from diverse sources using AI and deterministic systems.
What you'll do
- Own and evolve the data extraction and normalization platform, processing data from heterogeneous sources at scale.
- Improve correctness and trust while reducing human validation through AI-based validation, confidence scoring, provenance tracking, and deterministic safeguards.
- Set technical direction, reliability standards, and quality metrics; resolve production issues and mentor engineers.
What they ask for
- 10+ years building and operating large-scale production systems.
- Proven experience designing data ingestion, extraction, or processing systems at scale.
- Expertise in at least one of distributed systems, data platforms and pipelines, AI/ML-powered extraction or classification systems, or platform/infrastructure engineering.
- Experience designing trustworthy systems that combine probabilistic AI and deterministic approaches.
Nice to have
- Experience with document understanding, NLP, or financial data extraction.
- Experience with provenance, lineage, or confidence-scoring systems; familiarity with cloud-native architectures, modern data stacks, or internal platforms is also noted.
