## About the role

Own AI features end-to-end: from designing agentic systems to the infrastructure that runs them in production at scale. Work on genuinely hard problems: financial data is structured, high-stakes, and unforgiving, making it one of the more interesting domains to apply LLMs to.

## What they're looking for

- 3+ years in a technical role with a strong foundation in Machine Learning and data analysis or backend systems
- 2+ years shipping production AI systems with real users and real stakes
- Hands-on experience with production LLM applications: agentic systems and offline/online evals to make them reliable
- Proficiency in Python and comfort working across the full stack to deliver end-to-end features
- Strong product instincts and a habit of thinking about user impact, not just technical correctness
- Drawn to hard, ambiguous problems and energized by building in an environment where the playbook is still being written
