Remote | Full-time

Compensation: $175K - $250K

We are hiring on behalf of our client who is developing a cutting-edge autonomous agent runtime focused on high-frequency financial environments. While current agents operate effectively as independent units, the next phase of evolution involves building a sophisticated intelligence layer where the entire fleet learns autonomously from real-time market outcomes.

The Staff AI Engineer will be responsible for moving beyond manual propagation of insights to a system where the fleet gets smarter with every trade. This is a high-stakes production role, not a research position. The feedback loop is immediate and measurable: the work produced either enhances agent profitability or it does not.
