We are looking for an AI Engineer with a passion for building production-grade GenAI systems. In this role, you will work closely with Engineers and the PdMs to implement, deploy, and scale advanced LLM and agentic solutions. This is an opportunity for an engineer who values engineering excellence and wants to see their code impacting millions of investors in a high-stakes fintech environment.
Responsibilities
Implement and maintain end-to-end AI solutions, focusing on the robustness and scalability of LLM pipelines and agentic workflows.
Develop and optimize RAG systems and AI agents using modern frameworks, ensuring high-quality retrieval and response accuracy.
Build and integrate production-grade APIs (gRPC, MCP) to expose AI capabilities to our global trading platform and internal business units.
Measure comprehensive agent performance by combining LLMOps standards (agent tracing), MLOps practices (automated evaluations), and foundational engineering metrics like latency and error rates.
Apply evaluation-driven development practices by using frameworks like RAG-eval, LLM-as-a-judge techniques, and model benchmarking to systematically optimize system performance for both quality and latency.
Collaborate with Product and Data teams to build and maintain MCP servers and data-serving layers that empower AI agents with real-time enterprise data.
Maintain high code quality through unit tests, tools like linters and type-checkers, documentation, and active participation in code reviews.
Leverage agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex) in your daily workflow to maximize engineering efficiency and share learnings with the team.
Requirements
2-5 years of commercial experience in AI/ML or Software Engineering, with a proven track record of deploying systems to production.
Ability to write modern, Pythonic code, combined with a solid understanding of AI Agent architectures, including context engineering, tool calling, skills and agent loops.
Hands-on expertise in developing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers or custom tool-calling interfaces to expose internal tools and data to AI agents.
Practical experience with LLM orchestration and data frameworks such as LangGraph, or LangChain.
Experience in building and maintaining production grade APIs (REST, gRPC, and MCP)
Solid understanding of database technologies (PostgreSQL), vector databases (pgvector), and advanced search strategies (semantic, hybrid, BM25) for AI Agents
Familiarity with MLOps/LLMOps concepts, including basic observability (MLflow or Langfuse), automatic evaluations, and prompt optimizations.
Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively in an Agile, cross-functional environment in English.
Strong understanding of engineering best practices, with hands-on experience in monitoring application health and performance using Prometheus and Grafana.
Nice to have
Hands-on experience in AI Agent evaluation, bridging classic ML practices, such as datasets curation and statistical metrics with confidence intervals with GenAI best practices, including LLM-as-a-judge calibration.
Knowledge of financial systems, trading, or experience in a regulated fintech environment.
Hands-on experience in securing AI applications through LLM red teaming, adversarial testing, and enforcing strict anti-jailbreak policies.
Familiarity with cost and latency optimization techniques, such as context compression and prompt caching.
