- Build AI agents, orchestration services, enterprise applications, and reusable platform components for Finance and business operations.
- Establish secure connections to approved business systems, beginning with NetSuite, while preserving authentication, authorization, user entitlements, rate limits, and audit trails.
- Implement citations, evidence links, deterministic checks, exception handling, reconciliation, and safe action boundaries.
- Assess prototypes and refactor or rebuild approved solutions into tested, monitored, supportable enterprise applications.
- Establish development, test, and production environments, release pipelines, incident response, and rollback controls.
- Evaluate AI models, agent frameworks, connectors, and enterprise platforms through structured proofs of concept and make platform adoption recommendations.
- Document architecture patterns, coach teams on agent design and evaluation practices, and guide adoption using user and process feedback.
- Translate Finance, Security, Privacy, SOX, and SSDLC requirements into technical architecture and application controls while supporting walkthroughs, audits, risk assessments, and remediation.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in software, platform, integration, solution engineering, or enterprise applications, including meaningful hands-on production ownership in complex environments.
- Strong Python and/or TypeScript skills with experience in APIs, MCP or comparable tool protocols, enterprise authentication, and distributed-system design.
- Production experience building AI systems using agents, tool use, retrieval, structured outputs, evaluations, and monitoring.
- Practical familiarity with leading LLM platforms and agent frameworks such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, or comparable technologies.
- Strong solution-architecture judgment across security, reliability, performance, cost, observability, and supportability.
- Working knowledge of enterprise Finance processes including general ledger, close, reporting, procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, forecasting, and management reporting.
- Working knowledge of compliance-by-design, access controls, segregation of duties, change management, interfaces, automated controls, completeness and accuracy, and audit evidence.
