Arta is on an audacious and incredibly rewarding mission: to pave the way for people everywhere to lead more successful financial lives.

Design and implement agent architectures (tool use, planning, memory, orchestration)
Build systems for LLM orchestration, prompt management, and workflow execution
Develop evaluation frameworks for agent quality, reliability, and safety
Create benchmarking pipelines to measure model and system performance over time
Build infrastructure for self-hosted and multi-tenant deployments
Design systems that operate under enterprise constraints (security, latency, cost)
Develop APIs and platform abstractions for external partners
Translate rapidly evolving LLM capabilities into stable, production-ready systems
Partner with ML and product teams to integrate agents into real financial workflows
Improve reliability, observability, and failure handling of agent systems
5+ years building production ML systems or backend systems for ML-powered products
Hands-on experience with LLMs, agent frameworks, or applied ML systems
Strong Python skills and experience with modern ML tooling

Strong systems thinking: latency, reliability, failure modes, tradeoffs
Location: You are located in or have a plan to relocate to the Bay area.
Background in distributed systems or data infrastructure
Exposure to financial systems or high-stakes domains
This is not a research or prototype-focused role.
You will be responsible for shipping systems that operate in live financial environments. Your work directly supports institutional clients and real end users at some of the largest and fastest-growing financial institutions, not internal demos.
If you’re motivated by making agent systems work reliably at scale, in complex and regulated settings, this role will be a strong fit.
