The focus is not on developing foundational AI models; it is on integrating modern AI capabilities into scalable, reliable, and secure production software.

Strategic AI & Trading Applications

Design and deliver next-generation applications supporting real-time workflows, pricing logic, automation, and transaction infrastructure. The role requires strong end-to-end engineering capabilities, including system architecture, backend development, and production deployment.

Workflow Automation & Financial Platforms

Build scalable applications that streamline complex operational and financial workflows for institutional users. Responsibilities include integrating intelligent automation, modern data infrastructure, and secure application connectivity within highly regulated environments.

Enterprise AI Productivity Tools

Contribute to the development of internal AI-powered productivity solutions that integrate with enterprise systems, communication platforms, and structured data sources. The environment leverages modern LLM architectures, multi-model AI orchestration, and secure data governance frameworks to support intelligent workflows across the organization.

Job Responsibilities

• Build and deliver production-grade AI/ML applications across strategic financial technology and enterprise AI initiatives

• Operate with strong end-to-end ownership across architecture, development, deployment, and ongoing enhancement of applications
• Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering leadership, data teams, and business stakeholders to drive high-impact initiatives
• Help shape scalable AI capabilities that improve automation, productivity, and intelligent decision-making across the organization

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, oranother quantitative discipline
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including hands-on experience building and deploying production AI-enabled applications."
• Experience developing AI-enabled applications leveraging agentic workflows, multi-agent architectures, orchestration frameworks, or autonomous systems
• Strong software engineering fundamentals including system design, API development, cloud infrastructure, data modeling, and scalable production deployment practices
• Practical experience working with modern LLM ecosystems, including large language model APIs, orchestration tooling, vector databases, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) architectures
• Proven ability to take AI applications from concept through production deployment, including monitoring, testing, reliability, and iterative improvement
• Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work across engineering, product, and business teams in fast-paced environments
• Familiarity with financial markets, trading systems, digital assets, or institutional financial workflows is a strong plus
• Experience with smart contract platforms, blockchain infrastructure, or decentralized technologies is beneficial
• Exposure to enterprise data platforms and integrating AI systems with governed, structured datasets is preferred
• Background working within AI-focused startups, emerging technology firms, or environments where AI systems are core to the business is highly valued
• Relevant AI/ML certifications, cloud specializations, or modern AI tooling experience are considered a plus
