AI Data Analyst

💻 Job Title: AI Data Analyst💰 Salary: up to ~£100k + profit share📈 Equity: 0.75 - 1%📍 Location: Old Street (4-5 office days/week)🔐 Company: Data processing AI Agents👥 Team: ~5💸 Funding: Pre-seed
About the companyThis early stage start-up is processing hundreds of thousands of unstructured financial documents into clean, structured datasets for some of the world's largest financial institutions - producing the output of 50, with a team of 5.
Forecasting £1.5m revenue within their first 12 months, they have an immense potential - not based on hype or inflated valuations, but rather achieving mega productivity through intelligent application of AI agents.
Their mid term goal is ~£50m revenue with a sub-30 person team. What's in it for you?

• Profit share. Cash in your account on regular basis - not a promise of a huge payout IF the company succeeds and sells.

About the roleAt most data companies, a dataset is the output of a large analyst team. Here, it's the output of a fleet of AI agents - and one person who stakes their reputation on it being right.
That's this role. You're the reason institutional clients - banks, hedge funds, investment firms - trust the data. AI agents do the extraction. You direct them, interrogate the output, catch what they miss and encode your judgement into validation systems that make the whole pipeline better over time.
You'll also work directly with clients, explaining methodology to sophisticated buyers who need to understand what they're relying on.
This isn't QA. It's the highest-ownership, most client-visible position in the company. Your name will be on the data. And for that, you'll have a very senior seat at the table.
✅ Must have requirements:

• Roughly 1-5 years in data science, technical analytics or at a data/market intelligence provider
• Obsession with data quality - you know what great data looks like because you've spent real time making it
• You go to the row level. A missing data point or unexplained anomaly bothers you until it's resolved - not flagged and forgotten
• Genuinely AI-native: you've been using agentic tooling long enough to have opinions on it - Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Agents SDK or equivalent, used on daily basis
• Python and SQL fluent - you've built and debugged pipelines, not just queried tables
• Comfortable in the terminal, in codebases, and in messy real-world datasets

👍 Bonus points for:

• Experience with financial data, ESG/sustainable finance, or quantitative research
• You've built agents yourself - not just used them
• Experience with LLMs in production / agentic workflow design
• Web scraping and document parsing at scale
• Experience in a small team (2-30 people) where you owned the whole function
