About the role

tl;dr: We're automating compliance for banks and fintechs with AI agents that work like human analysts.
If you're the person who makes everything around them run better, we should talk.
BACKGROUND Before you can move money or open an account, someone has to make sure you're not a criminal.

Your job is to take what's on the founder's plate and either own it outright or drive it far enough that the final decision is the only thing left.
You might be preparing materials for a bank deal, building out a hiring process, coordinating a product launch, running a partnership evaluation, or tightening internal operations.
You'll shape the roles, set the bar, and create the processes that let Sphinx scale without losing quality.
You identify what matters, break it down, and drive it to completion seamlessly.

Banks spend $50B a year hiring thousands of analysts to review alerts and fill out reports by hand.
The space has seen very little innovation, and customers complain about our most well-funded competitors weekly.
It's not glamorous - until you realize you're building the intelligence layer that protects the entire financial system.
You'll learn how a hyper-technical company scales from 2 to 20 to 100 people, sitting at the intersection of AI, fintech, and enterprise operations.
Our co-founders previously sold an AI company & have built ML systems that scaled to millions of users and closed deals with major banks.
The rest of our team in SF includes PhDs, industry experts, and competitive coders.
You want to see your work move the company forward - every day.
