About the company
We're a rapidly growing startup building software for real-time autonomous accounting and financial intelligence. Our proprietary AI and beautifully crafted UIs combine to give accountants and finance teams capabilities they've never had before.

Vic was founded by three Norwegian entrepreneurs and is backed by some of the world's best VC firms: ICONIQ Growth, Costanoa Ventures, Cowboy Ventures, and GGV Capital.

Our HQ office is located in Manhattan, New York. However, we are a remote-friendly company.

We are revolutionizing how financial back-office automation and B2B spend works.... a mind-meltingly large market. We are a talented, hard-driving team led by experienced entrepreneurs. If you're an enthusiastic, detail-oriented, curious disruptor, come build with us, you'll fit right in.

We have a relaxed, professional culture, and most of our engineering team does asynchronous remote work on a permanent basis. We're a team of builders—when we aren't building Vic.ai, we're tinkering with a personal project, contributing to open source, modding a drone, building a computer from components, etc.
