Build AI for the world's biggest decisions

Every important business decision is underpinned by a financial model. This is the code that the global economy is governed by, but it remains almost untouched by AI.

Our mission is to help businesses make better decisions by making financial modellers superhuman. This is a rare opportunity to solve a complex, valuable problem and have a GDP-level impact. We’re backed by leading VCs and are looking for exceptional people to work with us.

How We Work

We are building an elite team focused on solving a hard problem. Our culture is shaped by a small set of principles that guide our work.

Focus

We only do what accelerates our mission. We say no to everything else, even when it’s hard.

Truth

We care about what is true. We judge ourselves by results in the real world, not proxies, and we change our minds when we are wrong.

Effort

Worthwhile things are hard. We expect to fail often, but we only take on difficult challenges and we don't give up.

Service

The only purpose of a company is to serve its customers. We go to extreme lengths to make our customers win.

What We Expect

We are direct about what it takes to succeed at Tracelight. We believe it's the most efficient way to build an exceptional company.

01

Presence

We work together in our Hoxton office. We believe the best work happens when a great team is in the same room.

02

Commitment

We work towards ambitious goals. As a result, we work longer hours than less ambitious companies. We are creating an opportunity for driven people to do career-defining work, learn very quickly, and build significant wealth. If these aren’t your priorities, Tracelight is not the right place for you.

03

Responsibility

We will not impose structure until our scale demands it. We work together like grown-ups. Everyone reports directly to a founder and is responsible for accelerating our mission.

Our Interview Process

Our process is designed to be transparent, respectful of your time, and focused on what matters: seeing if we can do great work together.

01

Introductory Call

A conversation with one of the founders to discuss your experience, our mission, and whether there's a mutual fit.

02

Technical / Portfolio Discussion

A deeper dive into your skills. This stage is tailored to the role to assess your expertise in a practical context. For engineers, it usually involves a coding interview.

03

Paid Work Project

We believe the best way to get to know each other is to build something together. We offer a paid, two-day project (which can be done over a weekend or evenings) to work closely with the founders on a real problem.

04

Offer

Following the project, we provide clear feedback and a decision.
