About the team

Delo is building the next generation of enterprise AI: digital teammates that automate the work humans shouldn't do, starting with Finance and expanding across the back office. Born inside Deloitte and now backed by the firm, Delo is creating Deloitte 2.0: a fully digital, AI-native version of the firm. Our platform orchestrates agentic AI, structured SOPs, and automated workflows across ERPs, CRMs, tax engines, and financial systems. Think: a reusable, multi-agent operating system for enterprise work. We're early, truly 0→1, and building a scalable engineering foundation that will power dozens of agents, thousands of teams, and millions of automated tasks. If you want to build foundational infrastructure that will power AI-driven work for thousands of organizations, this is the moment to join.
