You will also help make our AI agents reliable enough for real production workflows.
What makes this role different
This role sits at the intersection of data infrastructure, backend systems, product workflows, and agent execution. The center of gravity is not model behavior or demos. It is the production substrate that makes AI workflows reliable.
The best person for this role is likely a strong product infrastructure engineer: someone backend-capable, data-correctness-minded, and comfortable moving systems forward without breaking production.
Truewind is building AI agents that help accounting teams close books faster and more accurately. Our agents read documents, prepare workpapers, reconcile transactions, draft structured outputs, and operate across ERP and financial systems.
To make this reliable in production, we need a strong product infrastructure engineer who can build the data foundation and execution systems underneath the product.
This is a backend-leaning infrastructure role for someone who can work across production data models, correctness-sensitive workflows, and agent execution systems. It is data-first in the near term: the primary focus is migrating Truewind from legacy data models into cleaner, more durable domain models while keeping live customer workflows working. As that foundation gets stronger, the role also expands into the execution infrastructure that lets AI agents safely complete real work.
This is not a prompt engineering role, a pure analytics data role, or a pure DevOps/SRE role. It is a product infrastructure role for someone who has lived through messy production systems and can move between backend services, data correctness, workflow reliability, and product-facing infrastructure.
Why this role matters
Truewind is in the middle of a major platform transition.
We are migrating from legacy schemas into cleaner domain models. These systems need to run side by side while we move product modules, preserve customer behavior, validate correctness, and avoid breaking production workflows.
Financial data has very little margin for silent error. A missing transaction, duplicated record, stale sync, or incorrect mapping can cascade into a wrong close. You will work with data from ERPs, banks, spreadsheets, PDFs, file uploads, and customer-provided documents that arrives in inconsistent formats and needs to be normalized, validated, audited, and made useful before humans or agents act on it.
At the same time, our agents are becoming more capable. They need reliable execution infrastructure: long-running jobs, retries, workspaces, artifacts, review flows, logs, traces, and failure recovery.
In a larger company, this might be split across data platform, product infrastructure, and agent runtime teams. At our stage, we need someone who can work across these layers without losing sight of correctness or product impact.
Team and stack
You will work directly with the engineering and product team on infrastructure that is already in production with real customers. The work sits between backend engineering and data infrastructure, with a stack that includes TypeScript, PostgreSQL/Supabase, Drizzle, queue and workflow systems, cloud infrastructure, and Python or similar tools where they are the right fit for data and automation work.
Truewind is at the stage where the product is powerful enough that the platform underneath it matters more than ever.
We need engineers who can help turn AI workflows from impressive demos into reliable production systems. That means building the data foundation, migrating legacy modules carefully, and giving agents the execution layer they need to do real work safely.
