Velixo builds Excel-native reporting, planning, and automation for finance teams running Acumatica, Sage Intacct, Business Central, and MYOB. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Montreal, we serve finance and accounting teams who live in spreadsheets and need their ERP data to be live, trustworthy, and writable. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

This is a fully remote position. You will own how well Velixo Intelligence works and what it costs us to run. That means building the evaluation infrastructure that tells us whether a model change made our product better or worse, and driving down the cost per action without degrading quality.

Today we ship AI features and form opinions about quality from anecdotes.

About Velixo

Intelligence

Velixo Intelligence is our MCP-based gateway that lets finance teams query their ERP in natural language and perform governed writebacks from Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot. Reads run through GIQL, our query language. It launched in public preview this year.

Usage is growing, the surface area is expanding, and our understanding of the unit economics has not kept pace. Run structured evaluations before every model upgrade or prompt change,



and produce a clear ship or no-ship recommendation Track quality over time so we notice degradation before customers do Reduce cost through prompt compression, prompt caching, context pruning, and routing work to smaller models where evaluation shows quality holds Identify the expensive tail: which customers, which query shapes, which failure and retry loops Maintain a current view of the price and performance frontier for what we do Supply the unit cost data behind our credit pricing and plan allowances Flag when product decisions will move the cost curve before they ship A prioritized cost reduction roadmap with sized estimates, and at least one shipped optimization with measured before-and-after quality. Substantial experience building on LLM APIs in production, not in demos or notebooks You have opinions about which of these earn their keep and which add ceremony without adding signal.

Solid analytical instincts and fluency with data. Able to write clearly about tradeoffs for a non-technical audience, because your conclusions will land in board decks and pricing meetings Python or TypeScript proficiency Most companies bolt a chat box onto their product and hope. We are building governed, auditable write access to financial systems of record, where a wrong answer has real consequences and a hallucinated journal entry is unacceptable.
