Basis builds real agents that do real work in the real economy. Our agents operate for hours at a time, performing end-to-end work for some of the largest accounting firms in the world.

We recently raised $100M at >$1B valuation and are racing to deploy the most advanced applied ML at production scale.

Our investors include: Khosla Ventures (Keith Rabois & Vinod Khosla), Accel (Miles Clements), Google Ventures, Nat Friedman & Daniel Gross, Adam D'Angelo, Jeff Dean, Jack Altman, Noam Brown, Kyle Vogt, Amjad Masad, Clem Delangue and many other operators/technical leaders.

"Basis is on the frontier of building production-grade, long-horizon agents. They've pushed the limits of what we thought our models could do on real-world, economically valuable, complex accounting tasks. They've been a great collaborator in helping us shape what the future of agents looks like." — Prashant Mital, Applied AI Lead, OpenAI

Modern AI lets software reason in real time. That overturns decades of UX assumptions. A chatbot bolted onto old workflows won’t cut it; we need interfaces where humans and agents co-create work, hand tasks back and forth, and build trust in real time.

You will lead Basis into that design unknown: design both the screens accountants see and the invisible UI “toolbox” agents draw from when they assemble those screens.

Imagine Basis 18 months out, then ship toward it one prototype at a time.

📍 Location: NYC, Flatiron office. In-person team.

• Design and redesign user-agent interactions across multiple surfaces, from first sketch to polished release

• Invent agent-ready UI primitives that agents can assemble, edit, and explain in real time

• Partner closely with product design on working agents seamlessly into new and existing products

• Building really good systems here start from deep user empathy. You will spend a portion of your time actually doing accounting work in Basis and becoming a user

• Pair with founders to sketch Basis 2027, then distill it into quarterly bets

• Immerse in what makes accounting awesome, emergent abilities of LLMs, and various UX for generally-intelligent software, then turn that insight into product decisions
