AI Engineer (Korea)

About Us

Fieldguide is establishing a new state of trust for global commerce and capital markets by automating and streamlining the work of assurance and audit practitioners—specifically in cybersecurity, privacy, and financial audits. We build software for the people who enable trust between businesses.

We're based in San Francisco, CA, but built remote-first. We're opening a new office in Seoul, and we're backed by Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Floodgate, Y Combinator, and more. Over 50 of the top 100 accounting and consulting firms trust Fieldguide to power mission-critical work.

About the Role

Fieldguide is building AI agents for the most complex audit and advisory workflows. We’re a San Francisco-based vertical AI company operating in a $100B+ market undergoing rapid transformation. Over 50 of the top 100 accounting and consulting firms trust Fieldguide to power mission-critical work.

As an AI Engineer, you’ll build Fieldguide’s intelligence layer—agentic workflows, architectures, and evaluation systems that power enterprise-grade agents. You’ll operate at the intersection of product engineering, applied AI, and production systems.

What You’ll Own

Implement agentic workflows that automate complex audit tasks

Turn customer problems into discrete, testable agent behaviors

Integrate LLMs, tools, and retrieval logic into reliable agent experiences

Monitor and maintain agents in production with a focus on reliability and performance

Execute with AI-Native Leverage

Use AI tooling to accelerate how you design, build, and test features

Prototype quickly and harden systems for enterprise reliability

Build evaluations and feedback loops to improve agent outputs

Write prompts and retrieval pipelines that perform at scale

Contribute to Product Impact

Work closely with senior engineers and product managers to scope and deliver features

Translate customer workflows into clear engineering requirements

Who You Are

You’re a strong software engineer who’s built your skills for an AI-native world. These principles resonate with you:

Bias to building: You move fast and resolve uncertainty by shipping

AI-native instincts: You're excited to use LLMs, agents, and automation as core tools

Curiosity and learning velocity: You ramp quickly on new problems and technology

Collaborative: You communicate proactively and seek feedback often

Attention to detail: You care about quality in code and customer-facing outputs

Experience

We care more about capability and trajectory than years on a resume, but most strong candidates have:

1–3 years shipping production software in real-world systems

Proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python

Some exposure to LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini) or AI tooling

Familiarity with retrieval pipelines, RAG concepts, or vector databases is a plus

Experience with React and Postgres is helpful but not required

Comfortable working in ambiguity with direction from senior engineers
