Fintech
Agentic workflows operating against regulated financial infrastructure, with audit trails and reconciliation as first-class requirements, not afterthoughts.
What deployment looks like here
Fintech deployments don't just move data — they move money, balances, and ledger state that has to stay explainable under scrutiny. An FDE in this sector is connecting agentic products to payment rails, core banking APIs, and reconciliation jobs where retries and partial failures are normal operating conditions. Shortcuts that would be acceptable in a low-stakes SaaS rollout become liabilities when every state change needs a clear audit path.
What we vet for in this sector
Sector judgment on top of the Three Buckets floor.
- Fluency in regulated-data handling for payment and financial data
- Builds for reconciliation and auditability by default — every state change traceable and explainable
- Judgment for when a shortcut that's fine elsewhere is a liability in a system that moves money
- Handles idempotency and failure modes specific to financial transactions (retries, partial failures, double-processing risk)
The Three Buckets set the floor every FDE clears. Fintech-specific vetting is the ceiling we hold Fintech placements to before they're assigned.
