Backend Software Engineer

Concourse builds AI agents for corporate finance teams. Companies connect core data sources from data warehouses, ERPs, payroll, billing, and more into Concourse, where our AI agents can analyze data and deliver insights in seconds. Our AI agents can be prompted through natural language and can return analyses, forecasts, and reports, boosting the finance team's productivity by up to 10x. Purpose-built for finance, Concourse agents offer auditability, memory, and presentation-ready output, helping teams cut manual work by 75% while generating 6x more insights.

At its core, Concourse is reimagining how companies interact with financial data. Traditional finance tools haven't changed in decades, teams still rely on fragmented point solutions and static spreadsheets. Our mission is not only to automate routine tasks but to transform decision-making by giving finance teams a deeper understanding and generating net-new insights into business performance.

Since launching less than a year ago, Concourse has grown rapidly. Our AI agents are deployed across 50+ customers, including unicorn startups (Persona, Front, Lightmatter) and large public companies (including now 2 Fortune 500). Concourse is a Y Combinator company backed by Andreessen Horowitz, CRV, and 50+ angel investors from companies like Brex, Rippling, Flywire, and DoorDash.

The Role

We're hiring a backend-focused Software Engineer to build and scale our core product infrastructure. You'll be excited about AI's potential to transform enterprise work, with foundational experience in backend development and a strong desire to build features, data models, APIs, and integrations that power our AI agents.

This is a great opportunity to grow in a fast-paced startup where you'll work directly with the entire engineering team and leadership to build mission-critical features. You'll get hands-on experience with modern AI technologies, enterprise integrations, and scalable backend systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain backend features, APIs, and business logic that power our AI agents and frontend applications

  • Develop integrations to finance data sources including ERPs, banks, CRMs, HRIS, payroll, and billing systems

  • Create and maintain ETL processes to ensure smooth data flow from source systems into our database

  • Work with the AI team to ensure backend systems handle hundreds of thousands of queries per month with high performance and reliability

  • Own large parts of the product with an ownership mentality that drives meaningful outcomes

About You

  • 2+ years backend experience delivering production features. You're comfortable with REST APIs, databases, and modern web frameworks (TypeScript/Node.js preferred). You excel at building integrations—digesting API docs quickly, standing up connections with urgency, and designing schemas that consolidate data from siloed systems.

  • Founder mentality & work ethic: We're ex-founders & early startup employees building a culture of ownership and autonomy. You've started a company, been an early employee, or want to someday. You operate independently, figure out solutions, deliver under ambiguity, and go above and beyond to crush goals.

  • Strong problem solver: Adept at debugging, prototyping solutions, and thinking creatively through technical challenges.

Bonus Points

  • Previous startup experience

  • Experience with:

    • financial systems or fintech products

    • data warehouses (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery)

    • data integration tools (Fivetran, Airbyte, etc.)

    • AI/ML or LLM applications

    • data, fintech, or enterprise SaaS

What We Offer

Competitive compensation: We offer competitive market compensation in both cash and equity.

Continuous learning: Every day is a chance to expand your skill set alongside a team that values curiosity and collaboration. You’ll work directly with experienced engineers, have access to the latest AI technologies, and be supported through feedback, stretch opportunities, and mentorship.

Growth opportunity: We’re building an ambitious, high-performing team that grows with the company. Your role, responsibilities, and compensation can scale as you do; your impact will expand alongside our product and customer footprint.

High impact: Your work will directly impact how finance teams use AI to make decisions. You'll see your features in production quickly and get direct customer feedback
