Company Description Daira is an AI-native finance operations platform serving growing businesses across the GCC, designed for SME leaders and startup founders who need clarity and compliance without a large finance team. The company combines intelligent data products with dependable finance operations to deliver end-to-end services such as accounting, bookkeeping, ERP setup, process automation, and monthly management reporting. Daira also provides financial health checks, budgeting and planning support, spend optimization, and comprehensive tax compliance services for VAT and Corporate Income Tax, from registration to filing and audit-ready records. By focusing on clean books, on-time compliance, and decision-ready insights, Daira helps clients minimize manual work and errors while understanding key drivers of profitability and cash flow. This structure enables businesses to gain clear KPIs, a disciplined monthly close, and actionable visibility into spending so they can plan and grow with confidence.

Role Description: We are looking for a Software Engineer to help build the core of Daira's AI-native finance platform. You will work across our Go backend and Next.js / React / TypeScript frontend - building the LLM document pipelines and agentic workflows that read real invoices and bills, determine the correct tax treatment, and post them into clients' books through ERP integrations. This is real-money infrastructure, so we care about getting the right answer, not just a plausible-looking one. You will own features end to end - from data model to UI - with real responsibility from day one. The Software Engineer will work on-site in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, in a full-time capacity, building and maintaining software systems that power Daira’s AI-enabled financial management platform.

What you'll do

• Build and ship full-stack features across a Go backend and a Next.js / React / TypeScript frontend
• Develop LLM-powered document pipelines that extract and classify data from real invoices and bills
• Build agentic workflows that reason about VAT, Corporate Tax, and the correct accounting treatment
• Integrate with accounting / ERP systems (Odoo, Zoho) and design reliable data mappers and adapters
• Model financial data correctly — money, currency, and tax as first-class, rounded, auditable values
• Write the tests, tracing, and metrics that let us trust the system with real client money
• Collaborate through rigorous code review and trace issues end-to-end across the whole pipeline

Qualifications

• 2+ years building production software (exceptional new graduates with strong projects considered)
• Codes confidently in at least one of Go, TypeScript, Python, or similar - and learns the rest fast
• Comfortable across the stack: Go services, React / Next.js UI, and SQL / Postgres
• Genuinely excited about building with LLMs and AI agents - not just calling an API
• Cares deeply about correctness - traces a value end-to-end and thinks through the edge cases
• Reads unfamiliar code comfortably and communicates clearly in writing
• Bonus: exposure to fintech, accounting, ERP systems, or tax domains
