Senior AI Engineer
A leading quantitative trading firm is building an internal AI and agent platform from the ground up, with the goal of changing how engineers, quantitative researchers and traders work.
This isn't a chatbot or a thin wrapper around an API. You'll build the infrastructure and tooling behind production AI agents - integrating the latest models and coding agents, building agent harnesses, inference infrastructure, tracing and integrations, and then applying them to real workflows across engineering, research and trading.
The space is moving incredibly quickly, and you'll have significant freedom to experiment with new models and approaches and put the ones that work into production.
What You’ll Do
- Build AI agents and tooling used directly by engineers, researchers and traders
- Evaluate and integrate new models, coding agents and agent frameworks as they emerge
- Build the underlying agent platform across inference, orchestration, tracing, configuration and integrations
- Develop AI products for specific high-value workflows across the firm
- Prototype applications of agents across quantitative research, simulation and trading
- Work directly with users, ship quickly and iterate based on real-world usage
What We’re Looking For
- Hands-on experience building with LLMs and agents - tools, context, orchestration and model APIs
- Familiarity with coding agents and the rapidly evolving model ecosystem
- Comfortable moving between product, developer tooling and infrastructure
- Someone who experiments with this technology outside work and genuinely keeps up with the space
- Ability to take ambiguous ideas and turn them into production systems
Experience with model evaluation, inference optimisation, fine-tuning or post-training is a bonus.
