AT GRADIENT LABS, WE'RE BUILDING THE AI CUSTOMER OPERATIONS PLATFORM FOR FINANCIAL SERVICES.
Founded in 2023, we now work with some of the biggest names in banking and fintech. Our platform runs specialist agents, purpose-built for financial services, to eliminate manual work across customer support and back-office operations.

- Build robust evaluation infrastructure: Create and maintain eval suites drawn from real-world scenarios and edge cases. Go beyond vibes-based testing: structured evals measuring accuracy, safety, and latency, tied to clear business outcomes, used to drive systematic improvements to prompts, tools, and behaviour.
