Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # AI Researcher - **Company:** Hudson River Trading - **Location:** Kingdom, United States - **Experience:** Experienced - **Salary:** $200,000.0 - $300,000.0 - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, C++ (Programming Language), Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), Linux Kernel, Application Specific Integrated Circuits, Pytorch, Large Language Models, Deep Learning - **Published:** September 4, 2026 - **Apply:** https://startup.jobs/ai-researcher-hudson-river-trading-9792989 ## About the Role * Must have two or more years work experience in deep learning research, for any domain: robotics, biology, chemistry, physics, audio, video, etc. * Experience translating methods between areas of application is highly valued. * LLM experience is valuable, but not necessary. * Strong engineering skills valued, especially any of: GPU kernel development, lower-level Pytorch/JAX development, intermediate C++, FPGA/ASIC experience, HPC experience. ## Description Researchers have great independence to pursue the research directions they think would be most impactful as part of a small focused team with minimal bureaucracy. They are enabled by state-of-the-art research clusters with very high GPU-to-researcher ratios, and supported by excellent engineering, hardware, and systems teams to realize their vision. Your work will be directly, clearly, highly impactful on the business, and it will be challenging: this is a field with no easy or obvious solutions. You'll be responsible for improving every part of our models: from featurization of data, to architecture design, to training dynamics, to how trading decisions are made. ## Related Videos - [Getting Started with Machine Learning](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/260-getting-started-with-machine-learning) - [Adding knowledge to open-source LLMs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1522-adding-knowledge-to-open-source-llms) - [Photonic Computing: Programming a New Class of AI Accelerators (incl.
