What the role involves

As a Founding Engineer at Convexia, you will build the core agentic frameworks and evaluation systems that power our Source → Diligence → Decide product.  Your Role Build and iterate on agentic orchestration frameworks: Develop robust systems for tool calling, routing, memory management, guardrails, provenance tracking, and failure recovery to ensure seamless agent performance. Design evaluation and backtesting harnesses: Create comprehensive tools for our agents and PoS model, including offline replay, regression testing, and confidence calibration to validate and refine system accuracy. Own end-to-end product delivery: Manage the full lifecycle from data ingestion and processing to user experience and system reliability, incorporating tight feedback loops from customers to drive rapid improvements. Enhance system performance and correctness: Tackle challenges with messy, real-world inputs like PDFs, tables, slides, non-English sources, and conflicting evidence to deliver reliable results. Partner with founders on strategy: Collaborate on the product roadmap, customer integrations, and technical direction as we transition from a platform to owning and advancing key assets. We’re hiring for people that are high-agency and a bit delusional. Specifically, you: You've built and shipped complex backend or ML systems in production, with a bias toward reliability You obsess over evaluation, observability, and failure modes You thrive in ambiguity and move fast without waiting for permission You communicate clearly and take ownership in low-process environments Other things we like: You've been underestimated before You've been told you're "too intense" You get bored in the absence hard problems  Hacker house vibes appeal to you
