Engineer, AI Platform - Front End Focused

Office Location: Lower Manhattan, NY (4 days per week in the office)  

This role is not eligible for U.S. immigration sponsorship

Accrete is an agentic managed services company: an AI workforce that does high-stakes, judgement-heavy work for government and enterprise clients — at the economics of software, not labor.

At the core is Accrete's Knowledge Engine, a dynamic context graph that captures an organization's tacit knowledge, resolves data across silos, and builds a living, auditable ground truth. Expert agents reason against that ground truth to act on complex, high-stakes decisions — not just answer questions about them.

From national security to commercial operations, Accrete delivers the work on one platform, with unlimited expert agents and expert judgement.
