Flex is a growth-stage, NYC headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2026 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense. After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?
Flex is looking for a Staff AI Engineer to join our AI Central Team and help us transform the way we work by building the tools and capabilities that support AI-first workflows across Flex.
As a Staff AI Engineer at Flex, you’ll help set technical direction and shape the long-term architecture of the AI systems and tools that all departments use to power their agentic workflows. You will own AI platform features and capabilities end-to-end including analysis, planning, implementation and production rollout to our internal customers. You’ll work closely with your AI Central Team peers and consult with department leads to anticipate business needs and proactively build the AI capabilities to address them. You’ll also play a critical role in mentoring, elevating technical standards, and ensuring the success of our Flex’s transformation into an AI-first organization.

We understand that it takes a diverse team of highly intelligent, curious, determined, empathetic, and self aware people to grow a successful company. Our HQ is located in New York City, but we have employees located throughout the US, Australia, Canada and South America. We are growing quickly, but deliberately, with a focus on building an inclusive culture. Our dynamic team has incredible perspectives to share, just as we know you do, and we take great pride in being an equal opportunity workplace.
