Working as a coder at Hudson River Trading (HRT) means working on a small, highly productive, and efficient team. You may see "trading" in our name and assume you'll be relegated to some dark corner to code for the "business," but that could not be further from the truth!
At HRT, an automated trading firm based in NYC, the code you write *is* our business, so it is everyone's job to make sure our developers have everything they need to do their jobs well.
As a member of the AI Tools team, you will be responsible for increasing productivity across the company by integrating the newest AI tools into our users’ workflows. Whether it’s for a Python developer writing a web app, a C++ developer speeding up order execution, a researcher investigating trade signals, or even Business Development meeting with vendors - we are focused on deploying what works.
This is an exciting opportunity to help build and define the AI tooling ecosystem at HRT. You will have to navigate the rapidly evolving options in this space, and adapt them to our own internal systems. You might be fixing auth one day, comparing vendors the next, and coding a new MCP the third.
