We are building an AI-native market intelligence and trading analysis platform.

Role mission
Build and lead the data function that makes our market intelligence product accurate, defensible, fast, and differentiated.You will own the strategy and execution for sourcing, validating, structuring, monitoring, and productizing financial and alternative market data across multiple domains (market, macro, on-chain equivalents, derivatives, flows, news, and social signals).The ideal candidate can move between data engineering, analytics, product thinking, and domain understanding. You should be comfortable asking:
Is this source reliable?Is this metric fresh?What does this data actually prove?What does it fail to prove?How should an AI system reason with this data?How do we prevent hallucinated or weak conclusions?
