Arctal | Multiple roles | Full-time + Intern | London (Old Street, in-office) | arctal.ai

AI agents are our product and our operations. We build structured datasets from financial documents using agent pipelines — and we run the company the same way. Our clients include some of the largest financial institutions in the world.

We wrote a manifesto about what it means to build a company when agents do the work: https://arctal.ai/manifesto

Hiring:

- Founding Data Engineer: own ingestion, cleanup, storage, transformation, distribution. 3–5 yrs exp.

- AI Delivery Lead: lead a team of AI agents to deliver data and analysis at scale. 1–5 yrs exp.

- Founding Operator: own the GTM operational engine: sales, marketing, internal tooling, everything in between. 1–5 yrs exp.

- AI Delivery Intern: work with the delivery lead to ship datasets using agent workflows. ~3-6 months.

Early equity + competitive salary (negotiable) for all roles. Details: https://arctal.ai/hiring

We're a team of five and will hire selectively to grow revenue over headcount. If the manifesto resonates, send me an email: aleksi@arctal.ai.

I like HUDs as an analogy for other forms of content/experience enrichment too e.g. what's a HUD for other forms of interaction than just looking at screens (like audio, or multimodal).

Can we embed useful data behind the content we produce/consume or derive personalised versions for the user?

-> Text/audio/video tailored for me and my interests? (ie. not just content recommended for me, but the content itself is tailored for me in terms of the insights and practical applications) -> Podcasts I can interact with? -> Audiobooks I can ask questions about?

Richer interaction that allows for more back&forth and key insights for the user and use case.

We're working on brief.audio, looking at taking the concept of personal podcasts (sort of introduced by NotebookLM) into its natural conclusion by thinking more about what content should be included and how to tailor the outputs into something that is really nice to listen to. Make it a truly slick mobile experience.

https://www.brief.audio -> Have a go, we're primarily testing internally atm, will look to make it more available and a bit more polished next week.

Primary focus is getting the content right this week with the audio script and hosts being user & content dependent. :)

Especially interested in hearing what content to pipe in (we're looking to put in our hackernews.coffee as a feed for example, but also other key news sources).

Yarp! And "poisoning" can be done with "off-topic" questions and answers as well as just sort of "dilution". Have noticed this when doing content generation repeatedly, tight instructions get diluted over time.

This is very interesting and I like the conversation about not only the technology itself, but also about the importance of thinking about the interface as a user experience and where / how it fits the paradigm.

We've been working on a lot of data processing and generation tasks. We've been doing this using an API primarily, but sometimes I end up testing creating data in a chat window and I first chat through what the requirements are for the data analysis / processing and then once I'm done I would like the whole conversation to be then summarised into basically a one-prompt process so that I can re-use it (because I can't really process new inputs via the chat).

Even when you do manage to get it down to a single prompt you can use in a chat and then ask the chat to just keep producing new data (like imagine a blog post in certain style if the base content is given as input and I'm making like 20 of them). If you produce these in the chat, there's notable benefits in that if something is wrong with the blog post the chat suggests, you can immediately edit it. The trouble is that the context window starts becoming so big that the chat starts to forget what the original instruction is and eventually you do have to just create a new chat.

One way to solve for this is having a chat with selective memory where you keep a task in memory, but you have the chat forget/not-include all the generated data in the context so that it stays clean, but only bring it to the context if the user refers to it.

Has anyone else done data processing types of tasks in chats and had issues like this? Are there some other tools to use or tricks to do in chats?

We're a small team of repeat founders and seasoned operators on a big mission to simplify planet-positive investing and put power in the hands of impact investors at a scale never seen before. The next generation of tools we are building use AI to interact with the world of sustainability data (large language models like ChatGPT). This is a highly specialist crew with a decade or more of relevant experience in the domains of machine learning and climate finance.

Some of the companies we started, (e.g. Secondmind), scaled to 100+ people and millions in revenue, published extensively in key academic journals in machine learning, and won national awards. We also have extensive industry networks, published works, and numerous advisory and working group seats in climate and sustainable finance.

We're looking for people to play a foundational role on this big mission:

- Senior Backend Engineer (Python)

- (Research) ML Engineer (LLMs)

- Mid level fullstack Engineer

- Others (opportunistic)

We have raised our pre-seed round from top European climate-focused investors (Pale Blue Dot & Frontline Ventures) and we just did a private product launch at COP28 in December. We've always built high-performing teams where everyone is excited to come to work for the team and to make an impact on the mission. Further details are available on our Notion job page (link at the start) and our website!

I'm the CEO and co-founder — if interested, drop me an email (aleksi@) or email our jobs email (jobs@). It'll come to me either way! :)
