Job description

About Hebbia

The AI platform for investors and bankers that generates alpha and drives upside.

Founded in 2020 by George Sivulka and backed by Peter Thiel and Andreessen Horowitz, Hebbia powers investment decisions for BlackRock, KKR, Carlyle, Centerview, and 40% of the world’s largest asset managers. Our flagship product, Matrix, delivers industry-leading accuracy, speed, and transparency in AI-driven analysis. It is trusted to help manage over $30 trillion in assets globally.

We deliver the intelligence that gives finance professionals a definitive edge. Our AI uncovers signals no human could see, surfaces hidden opportunities, and accelerates decisions with unmatched speed and conviction. We do not just streamline workflows. We transform how capital is deployed, how risk is managed, and how value is created across markets.

Hebbia is not a tool. Hebbia is the competitive advantage that drives performance, alpha, and market leadership.

The Team

The Agent Collaboration platform team at Hebbia builds the interactive scratch-pad, analysis, and content creation tools for Agents. Our flagship product, Matrix, is a generative spreadsheet that leverages our ISD process to coordinate complex agentic workflows across thousands of documents. We pair a simple, elegant interface—where users can kick off complex multistep document workflows—with a real-time, high-throughput LLM execution engine capable of processing the equivalent of 100 Harry Potter novels per second. Together, we turn massive, unstructured document repositories into seamless, actionable intelligence.

The Role

A backend engineer at Hebbia blends expertise in systems, application layer software, and data modeling to build highly efficient software solutions. You will be responsible for leveraging the latest software and agentic solutions and integrating product experience with powerful distributed systems. You’ll help protect Hebbia’s technical edge via elegant software design, efficient data communication, and sophisticated integrations. We value engineers who move fast, hold themselves accountable to quality, and are detail-oriented.

Responsibilities

  1. Own critical system components: Take complex requirements and turn them into robust, scaled solutions that solve real customer needs.
  2. Unlock O(1) universal indexing: Build and iterate on our high-scale document build system that enables constant time latency for indexing any content in the world, regardless of data volume.
  3. Drive performance optimization: Architect and implement performance-tuning solutions to ensure our systems operate efficiently at scale, minimizing latency and maximizing throughput across millions of documents.
  4. Mentor and guide: Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and guidance to junior engineers, fostering a culture of learning and growth.

Who You Are

Compensation

The salary range for this role is $160,000 to $300,000. This range may be inclusive of several career levels at Hebbia and will be narrowed during the interview process based on the candidate’s experience and qualifications. Adjustments outside of this range may be considered for candidates whose qualifications significantly differ from those outlined in the job description.
