Fullstack AI Engineer
Join Filed as a Fullstack AI Engineer: ship end-to-end AI-driven tax workflows, own the outcomes, learn fast, and help rebuild a critical industry with speed and impact.
We usually respond within a week
Filed is building the first AI tax preparer trusted by America’s accounting firms.
This industry might seem boring—but it’s a $70B backbone of the economy that’s breaking under a talent shortage no one has solved. We’re fixing it—fast.
In just 9 months, we’ve hit strong product-market fit, are generating insanely fast-growing, ridiculously sticky revenue, and are backed by top-tier investors. We’re not a tool—we’re the missing workforce firms have been sounding the alarm for. We’re building the future by expanding our already 30-person team with those who want to say “I was there when it all started.”

What we should tell you about the role:
We're looking for a Fullstack AI Engineer who moves fast and thrives in high-velocity environments. You're the kind of person who sees a product gap, understands the root cause quickly, and ships a working feature in hours or days, not weeks. You love turning complex workflows into clean, intuitive interfaces, and you don't wait for a perfect spec to get started.
You're a builder who's just as comfortable designing React UIs and TypeScript APIs as you are wiring up Python backends or deploying to Google Cloud or Azure. You sweat the details, but never let them block momentum.
At Filed, engineering means more than owning the code. You own the outcome. You ship a feature, watch how CPAs use it, look at the metrics, and decide what the next version should be. Just you and your team, the data, and the user.
As one of our core engineering hires, you'll help shape how tax professionals experience AI-assisted work end to end. You'll work closely with the AI, tax, and product teams — and most importantly, our users — to rethink what great AI native software can feel like.

Here’s why this is a terrible job:
This is not a job for someone who likes to move slow.
We operate week to week with ruthless speed. Sometimes we're going in the wrong direction, but more times than not we're going in the right direction.
If you need a few extra days to polish a component, chances are there's already a handful of team members blocked behind you.
You'll look at the usage data and figure out what to build next yourself.
There are no clear answers. Just judgment calls, ambiguity, and constant input from every direction.
You'll ask yourself, is this really the work? It is. And it's not for everyone.
⸻
Here’s why it’s the best career choice you’ll make:
We're building what tax pros call impossible. A product that behaves like a teammate, not just another tool.
We run reviews every 4 months. We operate with total transparency around pay, performance, and progress.
You'll be paid above market. You'll earn equity that grows fast. And you'll have full autonomy to make high-impact decisions.
You'll ship features because you believe in them, not because they got signed off.
You'll talk to customer facing teams and will be exposed to customer feedback weekly. You'll drive outcomes end to end.
We'll tell you what needs to be achieved. How you get there is on you.
⸻
The teammate we’re looking for:
Thrives at solving hard product problems, not just technical ones
Moves seamlessly between identifying problems, implementing solutions, and iterating quickly
Excited by ownership — you want to be the person accountable for how a feature performs
No lone wolves — we need a collaborative builder
Big bonus if you've shipped product at a fast-moving startup before
⸻
What you’ll be responsible for:
Building and maintaining fullstack features across our AI tax prep, planning, and review products
Owning the UX and backend logic for the workflows tax professionals use every day
Shipping fast, watching metrics, and deciding what to improve next — without being told
You want to learn about LLMs and how to make them work for our customers to achieve higher accuracy and transparency
Keeping the codebase clean, typed, and fast as we scale
⸻
Your hard skillset:
Comfortable in TypeScript, React, and Python — you've built complex, data-heavy UIs and backend services before
Familiar with cloud infrastructure on Google Cloud and/or Azure
Bonus if you've worked in fast-paced startups or regulated industries
Even bigger bonus if you've taken a product from 0 to 1 and watched real users depend on it
⸻
Your soft skillset:
Comfortable being uncomfortable and making calls with incomplete data
Empathetic and curious — building for the user, not just for clean code
Highly collaborative across product, engineering, and tax
Detail-oriented but pragmatic — you know when polish matters and when to ship
You own your work and welcome the accountability that comes with it
⸻
Growth and Levels:
We operate on six levels, from Level 1 to Level 6. Each reflects increasing ownership, impact, and scope with meaningful jumps in salary and equity.
We review levels every 4 months. Promotions are based on output and ownership, not tenure.
This isn't a comfortable CRUD role. It's fast, focused, and customer-obsessed.
You will launch fast. You will learn fast. You will own what you ship.
⸻
The process:
Quick intro call (30 minutes)
Technical walkthrough and async task (60 minutes)
Final round with our team (120 minutes)
In just 3.5 hours, you’ll be wanting early access - just like the rest of our team - to get into the stack and start building a generational company, even before your first day. Because you’ll see the opportunity to change your career trajectory - fast.
