About the Company

Aleph is an AI-native Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) platform designed to help finance teams bring together data from multiple systems, reduce reliance on manual spreadsheets, and make better business decisions. The company is building software for a large, established market where finance teams need more efficient ways to manage financial data, forecasts, and scenarios.

Aleph was founded by Albert Gozzi and Santiago Perez De Rosso, whose backgrounds include Stanford, MIT, Google, Microsoft, and Bain & Company. The company is backed by Khosla Ventures, Bain Capital Ventures, Y Combinator, and Picus Capital, and serves customers including Webflow, Notion, Zapier, and Y Combinator.

About the Role

Aleph is seeking a Staff-level Software Engineer to lead major product areas across its product lines. This role combines full-stack engineering, financial data modeling, high-performance user interfaces, and AI-powered product development. You will take projects from early problem definition through launch and ongoing iteration, working directly with customers, stakeholders, and engineering teammates.

The position calls for an engineer who can make sound technical decisions across the entire stack, build reliable systems for complex financial workflows, and create reusable solutions that other teams adopt. You will have significant ownership over product development while helping maintain high standards for code quality, communication, and engineering practices.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead features across product lines, from understanding customer and stakeholder needs to implementation, launch, and continued improvement.
• Build responsive, high-performance interfaces that support spreadsheet-like workflows over large financial datasets.
• Design data models and APIs that maintain accuracy across actual financial results, forecasts, and scenario planning.
• Develop systems that support streaming results and long-running processes.
• Build AI-native product capabilities, including orchestration, tool calls, and retrieval.
• Work directly with customers to understand their challenges and translate them into effective technical solutions.
• Make thoughtful architectural and implementation decisions across the user interface, application services, APIs, and data storage.
• Write clear, reliable, maintainable code and contribute to code reviews that improve the quality of engineering work.
• Communicate technical decisions and trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Develop systems and engineering patterns that other teams can adopt and use effectively.

Required Qualifications

• Experience building complex B2B software products, ideally from the ground up.
• Strong full-stack engineering fundamentals, with the ability to trace requests from the user interface through application logic to the data store.
• Experience building intuitive products with careful attention to usability and implementation details.
• Ability to design and build solutions that support broader product needs rather than addressing only an individual feature.
• Comfort working directly with customers to understand problems before beginning implementation.
• A builder’s mindset, with the initiative to identify opportunities, solve difficult problems, and deliver practical solutions.
• Strong judgment in selecting simple, effective tools and approaches without unnecessary complexity.
• A commitment to code quality, correctness, readability, and thoughtful technical reviews.
• Clear, direct communication skills and the ability to influence decisions across technical and non-technical teams.

Expectations for Staff-Level Engineers

Staff-level engineers are expected to create systems and technical solutions that are adopted by teams beyond their immediate group. They should demonstrate strong engineering fundamentals across the stack, take ownership of difficult problems, and bring the initiative often found in founders, engineering leads, and startup builders. The role also requires pragmatism, high standards of craftsmanship, and the ability to communicate technical decisions persuasively.

Work Arrangement and Location

This is a remote-first position open to candidates in the Americas, including the United States, Canada, and Latin America. Aleph is prioritizing candidates within these regions to maintain better alignment with team working hours.
