> Forward-deployed Solutions Architect configuring, testing, and launching AI agents that automate construction finance operations (compliance, billing, AR, forecasting) for customers post-sale. Requires hands-on LLM/agent deployment experience, structured data skills, and construction finance knowledge.

## Job Description

## What you'll do
- Design and configure AI agents for production customer environments: triggers, tools, approval gates, override paths, dry-run modes
- Decompose real-world finance workflows into agent skills, and make the judgment calls on where automation is reliable versus where it needs a human in the loop
- Test, debug, and iterate: when an agent produces a wrong output, trace whether the failure is in the prompt, the data, or the process design
- Build integrations and data pipelines between customer ERPs and Adaptive, including one-off migrations from legacy systems
- Validate financial output: trace agent-produced numbers back to source and fix the logic when it is wrong
- Run onboarding through go-live: prerequisites, configuration, training, and the first month of production operation
- Document what you build so every deployment makes the next one faster

## What you bring
- Hard requirement — AI fluency and agent design. You build with AI, not just talk about it. Deep hands-on experience with LLMs as a working instrument: prompt engineering, agent architecture, and workflow design. Demonstrated experience deploying agents or LLM-powered workflows for real users — production, not prototypes.
- Structured thinking about data: expert Excel, comfort reading API docs and data models, SQL or scripting a plus
- Construction finance literacy (WIP, percentage-of-completion, job costing, AIA billing, retainage, COI compliance) or the domain depth to learn it fast and hold your own with a controller
- Familiarity with construction ERPs (Sage Intacct, Sage 300 CRE, Vista, Spectrum, Acumatica) and Procore’s data model is a strong plus
- Customer-facing composure: you can run a working session with a controller, manage expectations through a rocky deployment, and communicate clearly in writing
- High ownership and comfort with ambiguity. You define the playbook rather than follow one

## What we offer
- Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) match and flexible PTO policy
- A seat at the table in a rapidly scaling vertical AI startup
- Unlimited opportunities for professional growth and leadership
