Early stage Rails engineer wanted to build AI-driven enterprise wealth tools in NYC. Founding role, high ownership, direct impact.
We’re a seed-stage NYC startup reimagining how wealth management firms work. LEA extracts structured data from complex financial documents and automates workflows—handling everything from document organization to pushing clean data into CRMs and planning tools—so advisors can focus on clients instead of admin.

Tech stack: Ruby on Rails 7, Postgres, Hotwire, AI Location: Hybrid NYC (onsite 2–3 days/week) Compensation: Competitive salary + meaningful equity
