About the Company T0 is your AI CFO from day zero. We automate the entire financial backend for founders—from bookkeeping and payroll to tax, forecasting, and investor reporting—so they can focus on building instead of managing financial busywork.

We’re not a research lab — we’re a launchpad. Our team is building an AI-powered finance engine and moving fast alongside real companies. Ideas go from whiteboard to production in weeks, not years, and engineers see the immediate impact of their work in the hands of customers.

Our mission is to rewire the broken infrastructure of global finance, and your work directly contributes to that transformation. At T0, you’ll solve real problems with immediate customer impact, operate with autonomy and ownership, and build foundational AI on top of infrastructure already supporting businesses at scale. If you want to move fast, tackle challenges that truly matter, and help redefine how financial operations work across the industry, this is where you build.

About the Team The T0 AI team designs intelligent, autonomous systems that eliminate financial operations for companies globally. We automate everything from bookkeeping and reconciliation to tax, payroll, forecasting, and document understanding—turning hours of work into seconds. The team blends deep research pedigree with proven industry experience. We operate with high standards, are tool‑agnostic, and expect engineers to own problems end‑to‑end. We collaborate closely, push boundaries responsibly, and ship exceptional work quickly. You’ll solve unprecedented technical challenges using unique, end‑to‑end financial datasets no one else in the industry has.

About the Role As a Staff Product Designer - AI, you help design the next generation of financial software: AI‑native, autonomous, and radically user‑centric. You’ll partner closely with engineering and product leadership to go from zero to one: from strategic concepts through to high‑fidelity execution.
