About Velixo
Velixo builds Excel-native reporting, planning, and automation for finance teams running Acumatica, Sage Intacct, Business Central, and MYOB. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Montreal, we serve finance and accounting teams who live in spreadsheets and need their ERP data to be live, trustworthy, and writable.
Velixo is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
This is a fully remote position. While we welcome applications from across Canada, we are giving priority to candidates located in Quebec at this time.
The role
You will own how well Velixo Intelligence works and what it costs us to run. That means building the evaluation infrastructure that tells us whether a model change made our product better or worse, and driving down the cost per action without degrading quality.
This is a measurement-first engineering role. Today we ship AI features and form opinions about quality from anecdotes. You will replace that with evidence.
About Velixo Intelligence
Velixo Intelligence is our MCP-based gateway that lets finance teams query their ERP in natural language and perform governed writebacks from Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot. Reads run through GIQL, our query language. Writes go through the ERP's own screen APIs so that every permission, validation, and audit rule still applies.
It launched in public preview this year. Usage is growing, the surface area is expanding, and our understanding of the unit economics has not kept pace. That gap is the reason this role exists.

Why this role is interesting
Most companies bolt a chat box onto their product and hope. We are building governed, auditable write access to financial systems of record, where a wrong answer has real consequences and a hallucinated journal entry is unacceptable. The evaluation problem here is genuinely hard and genuinely matters.
You will also have unusual visibility. The numbers you produce will directly shape what we charge and what we build.
