About Basis

Basis is an AI platform built to take on accounting & finance workflows end-to-end. We combine ML and accounting expertise to build systems that do real work on behalf of our users and are in production today.

We have hit product market fit, have more demand than we can meet, and are now scaling to see out the long-term vision. We just completed a yet to be announced Series A from tier-1 investors that gives us the capital to go big, and we need to do it fast.

Why join

• Extremely fast growth: We’ve partnered with some of the largest accounting firms in the world, with revenue 10x-ing over the last 5 months

• In person & interdisciplinary: We operate on the frontier of what’s technically possible. That is why being in-person is a must. We’re bringing together the brightest minds from the top engineering, ML, and accounting teams to work together in our NYC office and build production quality agentic systems

• High risk: We believe the world is about to change in profound ways. We are building Basis to be on the cutting-edge of that change for a decade to come, and we have an appetite for the risk that comes with that. The journey has just begun

• Compensation: We pay 50% percentile cash and 90% percentile equity because the whole team is all-in, and we want you to be too

📍 Location: NYC, Flatiron office. In-person team.

• Office lover: Prefers shouting across a room over a slack message, seeking full-time in-office in NYC

• First principles reasoner: Basis is not a normal company, there will be a lot things that have worked in the past that won't work here. We need someone doesn't just know what things have worked before, but can apply those lessons to new situations
