WE’RE HIRING! If you love data and are looking for unlimited growth opportunities, we want to talk with you about joining Further.

Further is a data, cloud, and AI company whose focus is helping companies turn raw data into the right decisions. We have an award winning culture of extraordinary people. Our purpose is to enable people to thrive so that businesses can thrive. We believe that the work you do should matter - it should be meaningful to you professionally and personally, and it should have a positive impact on both you and our clients.  If this sounds exciting to you, let’s chat! 

Solution Architect

You are the architectural conscience of the platform and the technical translator at the front of every client engagement. Half your week is inside the product — reviewing ADRs, holding integration patterns coherent, and partnering with the data architect and senior dev to keep the architecture honest. The other half is in front of clients — taking real operational complexity and turning it into platform configurations the system can actually execute. You are not a slide architect. You write decisions down, defend them with reasons, and change them when the reasons change. This role only works if you genuinely enjoy both sides. The leverage is in the loop between them — what we learn in deployments shapes the platform, and what the platform enforces shapes how we deploy. You will sit in our headquarters in Dallas, TX on a hybrid schedule. The team is in office on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. 

What experience should you have:

• 10+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 4 explicitly accountable for system architecture — Principal Engineer, Staff Engineer, Solution Architect, or equivalent.
• Production experience with multi-tenant SaaS at meaningful scale. You have personally owned tenant isolation decisions and understand the difference between "we have a tenant_id column" and a defensible isolation model.
• Deep experience with event-driven or event-sourced systems in production. You have opinions about idempotency, schema evolution, and the cost of getting either wrong.
• Working fluency in the modern TypeScript/Node ecosystem (NestJS, Next.js, Drizzle, Zod, Postgres, Kafka/Redpanda, Temporal or comparable). You can read the codebase, make changes when it matters, and produce durable architecture artifacts — ADRs, RFCs, decision documents — that someone six months from now can act on.
• Direct experience leading rooms of senior client or executive stakeholders — consulting, enterprise customer engineering, field architecture, or technical pre-sales. You can translate "the engagement is slipping" into a technical control loop and back again.

Nice to have: 

• Background in professional services, agency operations, or management consulting — you understand engagement economics from the inside.
• Observability experience (OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing) at a depth that lets you design for it, not just consume it.
• Architecture decisions on AI-native or LLM-integrated systems — model gateways, agent orchestration, prompt versioning, or evaluation pipelines.
• Experience in compliance-conscious environments (SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR) where audit trails and data residency are first-class concerns.
• Public writing, conference talks, or open-source contributions that show how you think.

What you’ll be doing in this role:

• Own the architectural coherence of the platform, ADR backlog, architecture reviews, system shape diagrams, the canonical event envelope, the tenant isolation model. You hold the line on invariants and write down why.
• Define integration patterns for every external system, identity providers, CRMs, project tools, communication systems, AI providers. You decide how we connect, not just whether.
• Build and own client deployment patterns, repeatable playbooks from "first connector" to "first signal" to "first governed action." You author them, run the first few personally, and abstract them into reusable configurations as you go.
• Lead pre-deployment architecture sessions with client technical teams, translating their identity infrastructure, data model, permissions, and compliance posture into a deployment plan the build team can execute.
• Carry the technical narrative externally. You can sit across from a client CTO, walk them through the architecture, defend it under pressure, and adjust where the pressure is legitimate.
• Mentor the founding engineering team on architectural reasoning, not by lecturing, but by showing your work in ADRs, reviews, and the way you make trade-offs visible.

You should not apply if:

• You want to architect from a whiteboard and hand off to others. We write code, we read code, and we ship.
• Client conversations drain you. Half this job is in front of people who don't speak fluent engineering.
• You need consensus before deciding. We move with strong opinions, loosely held — emphasis on strong.

Our total rewards program is designed for your protection, peace of mind, and overall well-being. In addition to our outstanding basics, we offer a net-zero cost medical option, company contributions to your HSA, fertility support, fully-paid parental leave, a monthly stipend for your lifestyle spending account, and much more.

Accordion Intelligence Lab

The AI Lab is composed of leading software and AI engineers, designing agentic-AI solutions ahead of the market. Our group builds and operationalizes the AI systems that power Accordion’s consulting capabilities, from agentic architectures and RAG pipelines to evaluation frameworks and production observability.

The Lab works closely with practice leaders to translate research findings into scalable, reliable tools that advance Accordion’s AI-driven value creation work for PE clients and their portfolio companies.

About the Role

We’re looking for experienced AI Engineers to join new AI-augmented delivery pods: purpose-built teams that combine AI engineering, data science, and product management to transform how PE-backed companies run finance and operations.

In this role, you will design and build the AI systems that power client engagements: agentic workflows, RAG pipelines, evaluation frameworks, and production-grade tools that operate in real PE environments. You’ll work directly with clients and cross-functional pod teammates from day one, and you will be expected to ship fast, defend your decisions, and continuously raise the bar on what AI-assisted delivery looks like.

This is a highly technical, hands-on role. We move at sprint pace—not quarter pace. If you want to move quickly, own outcomes end-to-end, and build things that matter in finance, this is the role.

What You’ll Do

• Design and build multi-agent systems and RAG pipelines that automate financial workflows for PE-backed portfolio companies
• Own the full stack from prompt engineering and tool design through deployment and monitoring
• Practice eval-driven development: define how success is measured before you build
• Translate ambiguous client problems into engineering requirements and deliver results in compressed timeframes
• Present and defend architectural decisions to technical and non-technical audiences—including CFOs and PE operators
• Build observability and evaluation infrastructure to continuously improve production AI system quality
• Travel to client site as needed

Success in the First 6 Months

• Work with like-mined AI engineers to ship at least one end-to-end agentic solution in a client engagement, from scoping through production
• Establish evaluation infrastructure for your pod’s systems so that quality is measurable and regressions are caught early
• Demonstrate materially faster delivery cycles because of how you use AI tools—not just that you use them
• Build a reputation within the pod and with clients as someone who can be handed a hard problem and trusted to return a working, defensible solution

What You’ll Bring

• AI tools are woven into how you work daily—you are materially faster because of it, and you can demonstrate that concretely
• 3–8+ years of software engineering experience with a notable portion in AI/ML systems, agent development, or applied LLM engineering
• Hands-on experience building production LLM applications: RAG systems, agentic workflows, tool use, multi-agent orchestration
• Proficiency in Python; experience with LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, DSPy, or equivalent orchestration frameworks
• Strong grasp of evaluation methodologies: designing evals, catching regressions, assessing LLM output quality
• Solid data engineering fundamentals: ETL design, SQL/NoSQL, vector databases, streaming or batch pipelines

Nice to Have

• Open-source contributions in the AI/ML space
• Finance or PE domain experience: FP&A, GL data, ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP), or financial workflow automation
• Experience building tools for reuse across multiple clients or in multi-tenant architectures
• Prior experience in consulting, professional services, or client-facing delivery environments

This is a high-velocity environment. Sprints are short, client expectations are high, and we don’t slow down between engagements. If you’ve spent time in large enterprise engineering organizations where velocity is constrained by process, this will feel different.

The people who thrive here are those who find the pace energizing, not exhausting. They ship fast because they’ve internalized good judgment—not because they cut corners. They use AI tools to multiply their output, communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders, and course-correct quickly when something isn’t working.

The annual salary for this role ranges from: $144,500 to $230,000 USD + significant bonus + benefits. Actual compensation packages are determined by evaluating a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to geographic location, skill set, years and depth of experience, education, certifications, cost of labor and internal equity.
