About Cadensys

Cadensys is founded by ex-Revolut and Trade Republic executives and backed by leading global VCs. We are on a mission to revolutionise the way businesses are operated. Cadensys solves the problems caused by scattered tools and disjointed workflows by unifying data and coordinating agents.

We are building an operating system orchestrating work between human workers and AI agents, across all tools and company-wide. By learning how humans make decisions and take actions, we enhance their effectiveness by allowing them to be problem solvers and not tool operators.

We are looking for a talented Backend Engineer committed to driving change in the way people work and with a desire to innovate by creating data-driven AI-solutions supporting process mining, mapping and design.
