AI Engineer
Cascading AI
Building AGI for banking
Casca is building AGI for banking.
We are replacing 30+ year-old legacy technology with AI-native systems of record that automate 90% of the manual work humans used to have to do.
Our first product is an AI-native Loan Origination System - with a built-in AI Agent, called Sarah. Sarah communicates with small business loan applicants via email or sms, guides them through the application process and prepares the loan file for a human underwriter.
Helping Small Businesses
Small businesses are the heart of the American economy and a lot of banks shy away from providing funding because of the manual effort in pursuing those deals. With us, that changes and unlocks affordable, quick bank funding for the 30M+ small businesses in the US as opposed to the high interest rates from predatory online lenders.
As an Senior ML Engineer, you will see your work repeatedly shipped to automate 1000s of real world conversations, helping small businesses get affordable funding.

Our Culture
Ownership: We take responsibility and do not assign blame. Building great software is hard and when something is broken, we ask ourselves "How can I fix it?"
Competition & Excellence: We are a fun group of former competitive athletes and gamers. We like to win and we know that the only thing between us and the title is our own ability to improve every day.
