About the role
- We're replacing decades-old legacy systems with AI-native technology that automates 90% of the manual work humans once had to do.
- Loan processes that took months will take minutes - and you'll be the one making it happen.
- While schedules can vary by role/team, many weeks will demand extra focus, flexibility and time particularly during major launches and high impact sprints.
Responsibilities
- As an Engagement Lead, you will translate ambitious AI capabilities into production systems inside major U.S. banks - owning executive alignment, delivery outcomes, expansion strategy, and risk management.
- You'll own the full arc of Casca's most critical client relationships - from first kickoff to go-live and beyond - serving as the strategic leader who keeps complex programs moving and turns successful deployments into expanding partnerships.
- Deploy Casca's AI loan origination platform inside Tier 1 banks - you own the outcome when legacy systems that took decades to build get replaced in months
- Own ambiguity - when stakeholders conflict or requirements are murky, you resolve it, not escalate it
- Own derisking at the portfolio level - observe patterns across engagements and act before issues compound
- Partner with Product and engineering to translate client patterns into platform decisions - shape what becomes core product, what remains bespoke, and what must evolve for us to scale
- Build the Playbook
- You're not following a deployment methodology - you're writing it. The frameworks you create will scale across every bank we onboard
- Codify lessons learned, set standards, and build a repeatable deployment model that improves with every engagement
- Drive cross-functional coordination across engineering, compliance, legal, and bank leadership - turn what works into how we operate
