Senior Frontend Engineer

About the Company

Farsight is the agentic AI platform for financial services, currently helping investment banks and private equity firms fully automate entire, highly nuanced workflows. Today, institutions spend 80% of their time gathering information for and creating first drafts of materials by hand before iterating on and refining their decks, models, and pitches. We not only give them that time back to focus on what is important, but we also bring new insights and knowledge to their materials that they wouldn’t be able to uncover without the help of our financial-focused AI.

Our team has had a wide range of experience that uniquely equips us to capture this massive opportunity. We come from leading financial institutions like Evercore, General Atlantic, and Menlo Ventures, supercharged by scalable engineering and AI skills from companies including Amazon, Hugging Face, and the MIT Media Lab. We've learned the ins and outs of building successful startups from previous work as founders and founding engineers. We are entirely based in Manhattan, New York City, and are in-person 4 days a week (except Fridays, which are remote).
