About Us
At Félix, we're building the financial ecosystem for Latin immigrants in the U.S., starting with a revolution in remittances. Our core product is an AI-powered chatbot built on WhatsApp, allowing our users to send money home as easily as sending a text message. We leverage cutting-edge technology like AI, blockchain, and stablecoins to make cross-border payments faster, more affordable, and more accessible than ever before.
We are a hyper-growth Series B company, backed by over $100 million in funding from top-tier global investors, including QED, Castle Island, Switch Ventures, HTwenty, Monashees, and General Catalyst Customer Value Fund. This isn't just about the numbers; it's a testament to the trust our investors have in our vision and our team. Additionally, Félix was selected as an “Endeavour Entrepreneur” and was a recipient of the CrossTech Fintech Startups Award. We are a group of extremely talented and dedicated high-performers, united by our shared obsession with a single goal: empowering our customers. We are all owners of Félix, driven by a bias for action and a true experimentation spirit to get shit done with urgency and focus.Joining Félix means you will be part of a team building a legacy, a company that will outlive us all. This is a rare opportunity to apply your skills to a deeply meaningful mission—serving a community that has been underserved for too long. We are a team that is fiercely loyal to each other, where radical transparency and constructive feedback are how we grow and push for excellence. We are bold, we care less about what others are doing, and more about creating sustainable value and a product that truly makes our users' lives better. We are building the future, today.
About The Role
We are seeking a proactive and highly skilled AI Engineer to join our core AI team. This role is central to Félix's next phase of growth, focusing on designing, building, and scaling autonomous AI Agents that will integrate directly into our product and internal operations.You will be instrumental in evolving our WhatsApp-based AI platform beyond simple Q&A into a sophisticated, multi-agent system capable of reasoning, planning, and executing complex, multi-step tasks across our critical functions (e.g., loans, payments, fraud). You will partner closely with JM Mommessin, our Head of AI, as well as with other engineering teams and PMs to translate our AI strategy into a tangible roadmap and bring it to life. This is a unique opportunity to apply a bias toward action and an experimentation spirit to solve deeply meaningful, real-world problems for Latin immigrants in the U.S. If you thrive in a rapid-iteration environment and want to build the infrastructure that powers a hyper-growth fintech, this is your mission.
