Position Overview:
The Investment AI Engineer is a senior, execution-focused individual in the Investment team, working alongside quantitative researchers and portfolio managers to design, build, and operate agentic solutions that accelerate the investment process. The role partners with Technology to evolve production-grade, enterprise AI capabilities, while remaining focused on building investment-specific skills, sub-agents, and workflows that enable safe, repeatable automation within research and portfolio workflows. This position reflects a broader shift toward instruction-driven development and human-in-the-loop agentic systems that augment investment teams while preserving judgment, rigor, and accountability. Key to success in this role is the ability to translate abstract investment and research intent into clear, achievable specifications and high‑quality merge requests that integrate cleanly into existing production systems.
