AI Use in Our Hiring Process

This may include AI-assisted scheduling and candidate communications, and AI-generated interview notes, guides or summaries to help our team focus on the conversation. All hiring decisions are made by our hiring team.

About the Role

Float is building an agent that works as a chief financial officer for every Canadian business: it knows the business, has all the context, and works around the clock. You would join the small team building the foundation for it, with a blank slate and a direct line to the product teams that will build on what you make.

You’ll have the best seat in the house on how to apply the frontier to real finance problems: taking raw model intelligence and turning it into durable, scalable, useful products. The team sits between the model providers, Float’s product teams, and the customers whose finances we run, building the harness —memory, skills, tools, evals, observability, distribution channels — that every agent at Float runs on.

This is a zero-to-one position. You will build the core pieces that let agents act reliably in production, and the interfaces and channels customers reach them through, then scale them across Float’s products. The field is moving quickly, so the best people here learn fast and are glad to rebuild something when a better approach arrives.

We are hiring across multiple levels for this role. Our interview process evaluates scope, judgment and learning velocity, and we level accordingly. At Staff, you set the patterns the harness is built on and the evaluation and observability bar every agent at Float meets. This role suits engineers who have shipped agents to real users, want more ownership than a large company can offer, and like to build.

What You'll Be Responsible For

Ship agents that save customers real money and time. Take them from the first prototype to production at scale, and own the outcome once they’re live.

Build the unified harness. Context management, capabilities and tool use, evaluation, monitoring and observability — the layer every agent at Float runs on and scales through.
