Monk is a well-funded startup tackling the $3T accounts receivable (AR) problem for businesses using AI, specifically at the application layer. They are hiring full-stack and AI engineers, have a live V1 product with paying customers, and have raised $29M. This is a job posting, not an open-source project or a product to clone directly.
What they want, where you stand, and the exact résumé edits to qualify.
Biggest lever: The most critical gap is the in-person NYC requirement; without relocation, this role is not viable.
A starter prompt for Claude Code, what you'll need, and how to reach them.
You are an expert full-stack developer. Build an MVP for an AI-powered accounts receivable (AR) automation tool for small businesses. The tool should focus on automated email reminders for outstanding invoices and a simple dashboard for owners to track payment status. Use Next.js 16 App Router, React 19, Tailwind v4, and Neon Postgres on Vercel. Integrate with a mock accounting system or a simplified ledger for invoice data. The MVP should include: 1. A secure login/dashboard for a business owner. 2. A page to list 'mock' invoices with due dates and amounts. 3. Functionality to define a basic email reminder schedule (e.g., '3 days before due', 'on due date', '7 days after due'). 4. A cron job (or simulated cron via Vercel's Edge Functions) to trigger these reminders. 5. A 'sent emails' log for each invoice. Focus on clean architecture, secure data handling (even with mock data), and a responsive UI. The output should be a complete, deployable Next.js application.

“I'm a solo operator specializing in AI-powered applications, and I was impressed by Monk's mission to tackle AR. While I understand you're hiring for full-time, in-person roles, I'd be interested in discussing potential freelance or project-based contributions to specific features or integrations if that's ever an option, leveraging AI to build quickly and efficiently. My portfolio demonstrates rapid development in similar domains.”
