Job Description

Lab49 is looking for Agentic Developers, engineers who don’t just use AI tools but write software through them. 
This is not a role focused on “adding AI features” or “building AI platforms.” Instead, we are seeking developers who generate production‑grade enterprise code using large language models as a primary interface, particularly while modernizing or extending complex, legacy systems in highly regulated environments. 
You will operate as a vibe coder in the best sense of the term: combining deep engineering intuition, strong system design instincts, and fluent command of LLMs to move faster than traditional development workflows- without compromising rigor, compliance, or reliability.  
Lab49 is a specialist strategy, design, and technology consulting company dedicated to the financial services industry. We were founded in 2002 to fill a need in the Financial Technology marketplace for high-end execution and reliable delivery of technology projects.
Our consultants are experts in strategy, user experience, architecture, engineering, and delivery management. We combine knowledge of the latest trends in technology with deep domain expertise to deliver innovative solutions with accelerated time-to-market.
We have office hubs in Midtown Manhattan, Washington DC, London, Budapest, New Delhi and Sydney. 
Lab49/ION is committed to maintaining a supportive and inclusive environment for people with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We respect the varied identities, abilities, cultures, and traditions of the individuals who comprise our organization and recognize the value that different backgrounds and points of view bring to our business.
Lab49/ION adheres to an equal employment opportunity policy that prohibits discriminatory practices or harassment against applicants or employees based on any legally impermissible factor.
