We are working on different areas where AI/ML can help portfolio managers, researchers, risk managers, and other functions. Some examples are: enabling traders/researchers to consume vast amounts of research and literature by organizing, summarizing information, sometimes in near real-time; doing quantitative modeling to price instruments, modeling demand and supply of commodities and other fundamentals; modeling weather, optimizing algorithmic execution of trades; modeling and building simulations of risk.

The AI/ML work spans usage of LLMs, deep learning, reinforcement learning and other ML techniques. The work also requires building AI/ML infrastructure for data wrangling, building feature stores, building frameworks for deployments, measurements, re-training, etc.

We are seeking a AI/ML SWE who has experience with LLMs, deep learning, reinforcement learning as well as an interest and ability to keep up with advancements in AI/ML. The candidate should also be strong in software engineering and be comfortable with AI/ML experimentation and productionization.
