Pylon

<div>About Pylon
America&rsquo;s $13T mortgage market is one of the most important financial systems in the world. It underwrites the middle class and is the mechanism through which millions of families build wealth. But while every other financial instrument has been simplified to an API call, mortgages are still assembled by hand.
We started from zero and created the first vertically integrated mortgage platform that turns origination into a single API.
Publicly traded companies and the country&rsquo;s largest originators are already building on Pylon. Revenue is compounding monthly. We&rsquo;re backed by Peter Thiel, Conversion Capital, QED, Citi, Fifth Wall, and the founders of Ramp, Blend, and Mercury.
Working at Pylon isn&rsquo;t for those seeking comfort. The people who thrive here have high agency, strong opinions, and a track record of delivering outcomes without direction. Many of us are former founders. We move quickly, challenge each other directly, and take full ownership of results. It&rsquo;s hard work, but it will be worth it.
Join us in building America&rsquo;s mortgage rails.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
The Team</h2>
We're looking for Back End Engineers to join our Integrations team. This team connects Pylon to the outside world &mdash; the partners, services, and data sources that make a seamless mortgage experience possible.
We have a critical, multi-month project ahead: building out a ton of integrations. Credit bureaus, title companies, insurance providers, document services &mdash; mortgage touches everything, and we need to plug into all of it. This is a rare opportunity to work across the entire mortgage domain and understand how all the pieces fit together, fast.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
Here Is What You'll Do</h2><ul><li>
Build integrations across the mortgage ecosystem. You'll connect Pylon to external partners &mdash; each with their own APIs, data formats, quirks, and reliability characteristics. No two are the same.</li><li>
Work on everything. This role touches every part of the mortgage process. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of how mortgage works &mdash; not in theory, but by building the connective tissue that makes it function.</li><li>
Own solutions from development to deploy to maintenance. You build it, you ship it, you keep it running. Integrations are only as good as their uptime, and that's your responsibility.</li><li>
Be self-directed and versatile. The integrations surface is wide. You'll need to context-switch between partners, prioritize what matters, and drive projects forward without waiting for someone to hand you the next task.</li><li>
Move fast on a high-impact project. This isn't a &quot;someday&quot; initiative. We're building these integrations now, and each one we ship unlocks new capabilities for our customers.</li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader">

 About the role
 
Hex is an AI-powered platform for modern Data Science and Data Analytics workflows. AI Research Engineers at Hex partner with product teams to build industry-leading AI experiences such as the Notebook Agent. In the process, AI Research Engineers will run experiments, fine-tune models, deploy AI infrastructure, and build and maintain experimentation tooling.
 
As an AI Research Engineer partnered with Hex's product teams, your focus will be driving Hex's context engine and pushing forward the capabilities of our Notebook Agent. Built for people doing the most complex and impactful data work in an organization, the Notebook Agent is a highly technical data copilot that writes SQL and python, builds beautiful reports and visualizations, and collaborates with the analyst on new avenues of inquiry. Whether its pushing the frontiers of SQL generation quality or using LLMs to evaluate agent threads, your job will be to enable the data teams that work in Hex to build out highly accurate and curated data experiences for their stakeholders, unlocking the power of data driven decisions for the rest of the business.
 
If you’re a strong builder excited to bring these capabilities to thousands of users, come do it on the best Data Science platform around, with the best user context.
 
We are looking for a senior engineer (from an AI Eng, SWE or MLE background) eager to rapidly expand our capabilities in several greenfield applications. As one of our team’s early hires, you will work on a variety of initiatives including:
 
Building features and experiences from 0 to 1
 Partnering on determining the architecture and stack for our AI-enabled capabilities
 Shipping product experiences that fundamentally change the way that Data Scientists and Analysts operate
 Working at the cutting edge of production AI applications
 
This type of ownership will provide incredible opportunities for personal and professional growth. You will have ample technical and team leadership opportunities, depending on your interests.
 
We aim to deliver AI capabilities that radically accelerate and augment the data science workflow – we’ve got an exciting roadmap and are willing to share more details during the process. We’re particularly interested in candidates who bring inspired excitement about what is possible in this space.
 
We'd love to hear from you if you have: 
Experience getting AI/ML capabilities into production and serving real users – we’re not currently looking for new grad folks.
 A lot of enthusiasm for applications of AI to real business problems.
 Understanding of core MLOps/SW Architecture concepts for modern ML-based applications.
 Ideal candidates are strong on Infra aspects of MLOps as well.
 You’re comfortable working in both Python & JS/TS – it’s okay if you’re only strong in one, but openness to both is important.
 Experimentalist mindset – understanding that quick iteration, and discerning critical thinking, can yield rapid progress on new challenges.
 Interest in the data space, and a love of shipping great products and building tools that empower end users to do more.
 Experience maintaining a high quality bar for design, correctness, and testing.
 Our stack
 
Our product is a web-based notebook and app authoring platform. Our frontend is built with Typescript and React, using a combination of Apollo GraphQL and Redux for managing application state and data. On the backend, we also use Typescript to power an Express/Apollo GraphQL server that interacts with Postgres, Redis, and Kubernetes to manage our database and Python kernels. Our backend is tightly integrated with our infrastructure and CI/CD, where we use a combination of Terraform, Helm, and AWS to deploy and maintain our stack.
 
This is a full-time role based out of either our San Francisco or New York office. Employees are encouraged to come into the office at least twice a week, with Tuesdays and Thursdays being our main in-person days.
 
In addition to our unique culture, Hex proudly offers a competitive total rewards package, including but not limited to, market-benched salary & equity, comprehensive health benefits, and flexible paid time off.
 
The salary range for this role is: $214,000 - $285,000
 
The salary range shown may be a reflection of additional factors such as geographical location and skill ranges/levels we’re open to. Placement in the salary range will be decided upon completion of the interview process, taking into account factors like leaving room for growth, internal fairness & parity, your demonstrated skills, and the depth of your experience. Our Recruiting team will be able to provide more details during the interview process.
