Job Description Senior AI Engineer We're looking for a highly capable Senior AI Engineer to join our team to build the next generation of AI-powered equity research. This role is hybrid, 3 days in office. This role is for engineers who enjoy turning LLM and agentic AI capabilities into reliable product systems embedded in real-world workflows. It is especially well suited to people who want to work hands-on across architecture, implementation, and operations while helping define how AI capabilities get integrated into products used by individual investors. You will be joining a team of exceptional engineers, analysts, and investors working at the intersection of AI and public markets.

For an ambitious AI engineer, it is an unusual opportunity to work with cutting-edge LLMs and advanced data systems while learning firsthand how sophisticated investors analyze businesses and markets. You will design, build, and operate core components of our AI platform: distributed agentic workflows, retrieval and reranking systems, model integrations, and the infrastructure required to make these systems reliable, observable, and scalable in production.
