- Create effective prompts and structured outputs (e.g., JSON) to generate accurate financial insights.
- Analyze financial documents including transactions, profit & loss statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports.
- Identify financial anomalies, categorization errors, cash-flow risks, and emerging trends.
- Implement comprehensive error handling, logging, testing, security measures, and data validation processes.
- Develop user-friendly dashboards, reports, or embedded QuickBooks experiences to present insights clearly.
- Utilize AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent tools as an integral part of the development workflow.
- Review, test, debug, and refine AI-generated code to ensure it meets production-quality standards.

We are looking for a developer who is truly AI-native—someone who leverages AI coding agents to accelerate development while applying senior-level judgment to validate and enhance AI-generated code. This is not a junior or training role; the ideal candidate will take full ownership of the technical architecture and deliver a production-ready solution.
Applicants should be prepared to share examples of AI-agent-built projects shipped to production, details of their QuickBooks or similar financial software integration experience, and an overview of their daily workflow using AI coding tools.
