Job Details

Payrate: $65.00 - $70.00/hr.

Summary:
This role will contribute to data and AI-enabled internal products for a venture capital firm. The primary emphasis is on next-generation capabilities (LLM-assisted sourcing and diligence, enrichment, search/retrieval, internal research tools), delivered on top of the existing AWS/Python stack and surfaced through Slack, Retool and Company s CRM. The role will require working within Company s enterprise engineering and security guidelines.

Responsibilities:
  • AI- and LLM-enabled solutions - Design and build AI-assisted workflows for investment, diligence, and portfolio monitoring (e.g. document and meeting summarization, entity extraction, classification, similarity/ companies like this features). - Integrate with major LLM providers and retrieval/vector services; establish patterns for prompt design, evaluation, and monitoring. - Expose AI capabilities through internal UIs (Retool) or lightweight APIs for non-technical teams.
  • Data and enrichment pipelines (Python + AWS) - Develop Python-based ingestion and transformation jobs that run on AWS (S3, Lambda, ECS, Aurora Postgres). - Implement reusable patterns for onboarding new external data sources (commercial data, 3rd-party APIs, portfolio-company data). - Prepare and serve data in formats suitable for AI/LLM workloads (embeddings, indexes, features).
  • Internal applications - Build and maintain Retool applications to support day-to-day investment and platform operations (deal views, company dossiers, data quality, AI results review). - Ensure applications meet basic standards for access control, logging, and performance.
  • Core integrations - Keep aligned with the central data store to ensure core entities (company, deal, person/contact) are consistent. - Contribute to the existing dbt project (add or adjust models/tests) when AI features or Retool apps depend on it.
  • Operationalization and handover - Document pipelines, services, and apps to a standard that allows handover to internal staff or future suppliers. - Add monitoring, alerting, and simple CI/CD where proportionate.

Qualifications:
  • 4-7+ years in software/data/platform engineering delivering production workloads.
  • Strong Python (data processing, API integrations, automation, packaging).
  • Demonstrable experience with AWS for data/app workloads (S3, Lambda, IAM, scheduling/eventing, Secrets Manager).
  • Hands-on delivery of AI-/LLM-backed features or workflow for example RAG, semantic search, text classification, or automated summarization. - Experience building internal tools in Retool or an equivalent low-code/internal-app environment.
  • Solid SQL skills and ability to work within an existing transformation layer (dbt or similar).
  • Ability to engage directly with business users, clarify requirements, and report progress.
  • Experience integrating with Slack and Company (REST/Bulk APIs, object model, upserts).
  • Familiarity with vector databases / search technologies and RAG-style architectures.
  • Experience in venture capital / private equity / financial or data-forward professional services settings.
