Deep Learning Researcher

What You'll Do: Architect and train novel deep learning models applied to trading and markets Lead research from first principles, including pretraining models from scratch Push state-of-the-art techniques into production, from idea to deployed model Work closely with researchers, engineers, and traders to turn insights into working systems Own the full data-to-model pipeline, including acquisition, preprocessing, and feature design

What We're Looking For: PhD in Computer Science, Math, Statistics, Engineering, or a related quantitative field 5+ years building deep learning models, with hands-on experience pretraining models or designing novel architectures (not just fine-tuning or applying existing ones) Deep expertise in modern deep learning theory and practice Strong Python skills, fluent in PyTorch, TensorFlow, and/or JAX Track record of publications at top venues (ICML, ICLR, NeurIPS, or equivalent) Comfortable working collaboratively in a fast-paced, high-performance team This is an opportunity to have significant ownership over a growing ML platform rather than simply maintaining established infrastructure. The team is investing heavily in compute and machine learning, with engineers working directly alongside researchers on systems that have measurable impact in live trading. Opportunity available on-site in New York City and Chicago.
