Careers

Work on the hardest problems in markets.

DB Macro Research brings together researchers and engineers to build frontier AI for financial markets. We test hypotheses with rigor and promote the ones that work — you'll have real ownership and see your work running in live markets.
Open roles

Machine Learning Researcher

Remote
Full-time
Research
Apply
Push frontier AI for trading — building models that reason and act under uncertainty, turning vast and noisy data into signal, and owning ideas end to end.
What we look for
PhD in computer science, statistics, or a computational field, with published research in artificial intelligence
Designed, trained, and shipped deep learning models to production
Built reinforcement-learning systems for partially observable, high-dimensional environments
A working command of game theory and multi-agent settings
Worked hands-on with large language models and agentic systems
Modeled non-stationary data and time series
Strong experimental design and hypothesis testing
Large-scale and distributed optimization
Pulled signal from noisy, unstructured data
Done this at scale in domains with sequential decision-making — robotics, control, recommendation, or games; markets experience welcome, not required
A deep curiosity for financial markets
At least five years of experience in production environments

Machine Learning Engineer

Remote
Full-time
Engineering
Apply
Own our models in production — training, serving, and the data that feeds them. You'll turn research into reliable, high-throughput systems and work shoulder to shoulder with researchers.
What we look for
Master's in Computer Science with machine learning coursework
Strong software engineering — production-grade Python is required; C++, Go, or JAX a plus
Trained and fine-tuned models, and shipped them to production
Model serving, inference, and MLOps at scale
Data engineering — robust pipelines and feature stores
Expertise across the AI/ML lifecycle, from data to training to deployment to monitoring
Distributed systems and performance engineering
Worked with large-scale, real-time data
A reliability and quality mindset for systems in production
Shipped alongside researchers, not in a silo
At least five years of experience in production environments
