About Us
At Money Forward, we are dedicated to transforming financial services using advanced technology. With over 50 services for individuals and businesses, including popular products like Money Forward ME and Money Forward Cloud, we help make managing money easier. We use “account aggregation” technology to gather user data, turning it into useful insights for our customers.
Our company has reached a turning point from "Cloud to AI" and is accelerating company-wide AI Transformation (AX) toward achieving our goal of becoming the "No. 1 Back-Office AI Company in Japan" under "Money Forward AI Vision 2026."
Leveraging our robust customer base of over 440,000 companies and years of accumulated business logic, we are expanding beyond the traditional SaaS market into the ¥14.1 trillion "Digital Worker" market, where autonomous AI agents substitute and augment human labor.
To turn this grand ambition into reality, we are driving "AI-PDLC / AI-SDLC (AI-Driven Development)" to redefine the product development process itself. We are seeking engineers who want to look beyond simple SaaS feature additions—redefining architecture and user experiences using cutting-edge AI agent technologies to co-create next-generation products across job functions.
Overview
Money Forward provides a cloud-based business platform called Money Forward Cloud that helps companies solve financial and operational challenges through integrated cloud and AI-powered solutions.
Within this ecosystem, Money Forward Cloud ERP delivers scalable financial and business management solutions for mid-sized and large enterprises.
About the ERP Cross-Functional Engineering Division
Over the past decade, Money Forward has built many products across different teams and technology stacks.

A key initiative of the division is building a state-of-the-art AI Agent Platform that enables product teams to quickly experiment, prototype, and deploy AI-powered agents. By providing shared infrastructure and best practices for AI development, the platform helps teams across ERP build AI-driven features faster and more efficiently.

We are building an AI Agent platform that enables product teams to build, operate, and scale AI-powered agents across our ERP ecosystem.
Our team focuses on building the platform infrastructure — frameworks, SDKs, runtime systems, and tooling — that allow multiple teams to safely develop and deploy AI agents in production.
