COMMENTS
The structure of the triangle is A(r,c) = A000587(1+(r-c))*binomial(r-1,c-1) where row index r and column-index c start at 1.
Row polynomials defined recursively: P(0,x) = 1, P(n+1,x) = x*P(n,x) - P(n,x+1). The polynomials appear to be irreducible. Polynomials evaluated at x = c give sequences with e.g.f. exp(1 - cx - exp(-x)).

FORMULA
Let P be the lower-triangular Pascal-matrix, PE = exp(P-I) a matrix-exponential in exact integer arithmetic (or PE = lim exp(P)/exp(1) as limit of the exponential) then A = PE^-1 and a(n) = A(n, read sequentially). - Gottfried Helms, Apr 08 2007
T(n, k) = Sum_{j=0..n} (-1)^(j-k)*A094816(j, k)*Stirling2(n, j). - Mélika Tebni, Apr 15 2022
