Role summary
Procindex is seeking a backend engineer to build AI agents for accounting operations, automating workflows across AP, AR, approvals, cash application, and ERP-connected finance processes. This is a high-ownership role in a small startup environment where you will work directly with founders, ship fast, and influence product and engineering decisions. Responsibilities include building and maintaining backend services and APIs, designing systems for financial workflows, developing integrations, working with AI agent features, and improving database design and production reliability. Requires 3-6 years of backend experience with strong TypeScript/Node.js, PostgreSQL, API design, and system design skills.
Procindex (Our new product) is building AI agents for accounting operations. We automate workflows across AP, AR, approvals, cash application, and ERP-connected finance processes.
We’re a small startup team, so this is a high-ownership backend role. You’ll work directly with the founders, ship fast, solve real customer problems, and help shape both product and engineering decisions. This is not a “ticket-only” job. We want someone who is comfortable with ambiguity, can move independently, and enjoys building from 0 to 1.
What working at a startup means here:\\
* High ownership from day one\\
* Fast shipping and quick iteration based on customer feedback\\
* Solving messy real-world problems, not just building clean internal demos\\
* Making pragmatic engineering decisions without overengineering\\
* Working across product, backend, integrations, and production issues
What you’ll do:\\
* Build and maintain backend services and APIs\\
* Design systems for invoices, approvals, collections, matching, and reconciliation workflows\\
* Build integrations with ERPs, email systems, and third-party tools\\
* Work on AI agent workflows with proper guardrails, retries, logging, and fallbacks\\
* Improve database design, reliability, observability, and background job processing\\
* Debug production issues and help us move fast with early customers\
\
What we’re looking for:\\
* 3-6 years of backend engineering experience\\
* Strong coding skills in TypeScript / Node.js\\
* Good understanding of PostgreSQL, APIs, and backend system design\\
* Experience with async workflows, queues, and third-party integrations\\
* Comfortable working in a startup environment with speed and ambiguity\\
* Strong ownership and ability to execute without heavy hand-holding
Nice to have:\\
* Experience with AI agents / LLM products\\
* Experience with fintech, accounting, ERP, or workflow automation products\\
* Experience building multi-tenant SaaS systems\\
* Experience working at early stage startup.
