Responsibilities

Engage directly with Portfolio Management teams to understand their unique business needs. Translate complex research requirements into robust, scalable, and secure technical architectures across on-prem, hybrid, and cloud environments

Write high-quality, production-ready code across the full stack. This includes Python libraries, infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), CI/CD pipelines, automation scripts, and ML/AI proof-of-concepts

Act as the primary technical point of contact for embedded engagements. You will own projects from discovery and planning through to implementation, knowledge transfer, and support, removing blockers and navigating the firm's ecosystem on behalf of your client

Prepare and deliver compelling presentations, architectural diagrams, and software demos to both technical and non-technical audiences. You will need to articulate complex technical concepts in simple, business-centric terms to build consensus and drive decisions

Stay at the forefront of technology in AI, MLOps, and Cloud/Hybrid. You will build solutions for cutting-edge use cases, including distributed GPU training, large-scale data processing, and the integration of Generative AI into research workflows

Participate in the team's on-call rotation, providing expert-level support for our managed products and the core platforms we enable (Cloud, DevOps, Grid, etc.). You will be challenged to turn support challenges into engineering opportunities by building intelligent automation and AI agents to reduce tedious tasks and improve our operational efficiency
