About the Role
As an Applied AI Engineer embedded within the Office of the CEO and President (OCEO/OOP), you will serve as a high-impact builder driving the future of AI-enabled business transformation at Pagaya. Working at the intersection of business strategy, data architecture, and modern artificial intelligence, you will build and deploy practical, high-value AI solutions, automations, and intelligent agents that modernize internal workflows.
Starting within the OCEO/OOP to address high-visibility executive priorities, your work will quickly expand to partner with key business functions across Capital Markets, Finance, and broader Operations.

- Embedded AI Development: Act as the primary technical builder, advisor, and problem-solver for AI-enabled workflow transformations - starting in the OCEO/OOP and expanding into Capital Markets, Finance, and key operational units.
- Workflow Automation & Agentic Systems: Identify manual, repeated, or data-dense business processes and build production-ready AI tools, customized copilots, and agentic workflows to streamline execution.
- BI & Data Integration: Leverage a robust background in Business Intelligence and data analysis to connect LLMs, foundation models, and AI agent frameworks directly into Pagaya’s data infrastructure, dashboards, and financial models.
