Responsibilities
- Define precise technical requirements for scalable agent architecture, including necessary reasoning frameworks, risk management systems, and knowledge retrieval interfaces required for complex decision-making
- Serve as the hands-on technical lead capable of building, testing, and deploying both interim (e.g., RAG-based systems) and highly complex agentic AI solutions
- Work alongside strategy leads to ensure that the technical prerequisites for achieving fully autonomous agentic operations are met on the twelve-month roadmap

- Ensure seamless deployment with rigorous validation testing, monitoring agent performance, and iterating on technical builds to improve decision accuracy and reduce latency
- At Fundraise Up, AI is a default tool, not an experimental one. We expect every team member to actively use AI in their day-to-day work, identify where AI can change the shape of problems in their function, and grow their fluency as the tools evolve. You should already be using AI meaningfully in your work and understand where it adds value and how it can improve the way you operate
