Member of Technical Staff -- Full-stack Software Engineer

We're seeking exceptional full-stack engineers who can create AI-native product experiences that delight and dramatically amplify productivity for discerning finance workers. You'll work closely with the founders, translating cutting-edge AI advances into innovative, intuitive products poised to disrupt major incumbents in the finance workflow (e.g. Excel).

Twenty Labs is an applied research lab working on augmenting knowledge workers, starting with finance. The penetration of AI in finance is still limited and we want to be the company that delivers AGI to finance through our product, Compound https://getcompound.ai/ (@getcompoundai https://x.com/getcompoundai). Some product videos can be found on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Gk06k3JN0rkSBWiLsMx2g.

You'll be joining a highly technical founding team, including leading researchers and engineers from Google DeepMind/Brain and Microsoft who pioneered research in language models, shipped GenAI products to billions in production, paired with domain expertise from top finance and consulting firms (Coatue, Bain, Y Combinator).
