Original job description

About Maxima

Nobody went into accounting to spend the first week of every month matching transactions by hand. Maxima was built so they don't have to. Our agents do the accounting work itself: journal entries, transaction matching, reconciliations, and flux analysis, in real time and to SOX standards. Accountants review and approve. Nothing posts without a person signing off. We remove the grind, not the human.

Maxima is the first agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting. Our founders oversaw the finance org at Rubrik and built the month-end close systems at Twitter and Netflix. We've raised $41M from Redpoint Ventures, Kleiner Perkins, and Audacious Ventures, and we're backed by finance leaders at OpenAI, Rubrik, and Vanta. Maxima runs in production at Scale AI, Rippling, Glean, and SpotOn.

We are early, we are growing fast, and we are hiring people who would rather build the category than join it. Here is one way to do that.

Company Description

At Maxima, we’re building an agentic AI platform to automate enterprise accounting.

Our system handles high-volume financial data, complex accounting workflows, and robust executions that must be accurate and reliable.

We’re tackling some of the hardest problems in enterprise automation, and we’ve assembled a world-class engineering team with staff-level talent from Robinhood, Glean, Google, Netflix, and Meta. Maxima is backed by top-tier investors including Kleiner Perkins and Redpoint Ventures, and we’re trusted by category-defining customers like Scale AI and Rippling.

Role Overview

As a senior/staff engineer, you will be driving initiatives with broad business and technical impact. This role is not tied to a single area - senior/staff engineers at Maxima help solve our most important and complex problems. Notable challenges include:

Building our agentic systems that power real-world enterprise accounting automation
Scaling our platform to support large and growing enterprise workloads
Architecting a durable and scalable financial data processing layer
Building the infrastructure that powers our agentic systems
Solving intricate accounting workflows through clean and robust abstractions

You’ll own major product and engineering areas and get to work closely with customers. Beyond technical excellence, we value engineers who are curious and take initiative.

What We're Looking For

Typically 5+ years building systems at high-growth companies
Strong familiarity with web development, relational databases, and distributed systems
Experience with AI agents, data pipelines, mission-critical systems (e.g. fintech), or complex workflow engines is a strong plus
Loves in-person culture, we are 5 days a week in office, location near Union Station / King street
Cares deeply about culture

Why Join Us:

Be a core part of a mission-driven startup looking to transform accounting processes.
Work in a fast-paced environment where your decisions directly impact product direction and company growth.
Opportunity to grow with the company and build a technical team from the ground up.
Competitive salary, equity, and benefits (401k, unlimited PTO)

Join us in revolutionizing accounting month-end close and making accounting operations more efficient for businesses everywhere!

Why join Maxima

The work. Agentic accounting is a category being defined right now, and Maxima is one of the companies defining it. The product does the accounting work itself, so what you build, sell, or deploy shows up in a customer's books
The people. Founders who ran the finance org at Rubrik and built the close systems at Twitter and Netflix. Engineers from Robinhood, Glean, Google, Netflix, and Meta. Controllers and accountants on the team who have closed books themselves. Small teams in San Mateo and Toronto that work in the same room, say what they think, and hold a high bar
The benefits. Competitive salary, 401(k) for US employees, unlimited PTO, lunch in the office, and commuter benefits
The process. A person reads every application, and we tell you where you stand at every stage

A note on AI

We build AI and we expect you to use it. Use it to research us and to prepare. In live conversations we want your own thinking in your own words, and if you use AI on a take-home exercise, tell us where it helped.

Equal opportunity

Maxima is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, ancestry, national origin, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, genetic information, marital status, or any other legally protected status. If you need an accommodation at any point in the process, tell us and we will arrange it.
