About us

ATG (Autonomous Technologies Group) is an AI lab deploying frontier reasoning systems within financial markets.

Founders: Early GPU cloud (9 figure exit).

Investors: Garry Tan / YC + Founder of one of the most successful quant funds, BoxGroup (Plaid, Ramp, Stripe), top-tier angels.

About the Role

As a Senior Member of Technical Staff, you’ll set the technical bar and shape the core systems underpinning our research and engineering. You’ll drive high-leverage architectural decisions, mentor engineers across domains, and help define how agentic AI workflows are integrated into our AI-native investment platform. This is a hands-on, principal IC role—not a manager.

Responsibilities

• Architect and implement mission-critical systems and infrastructure across the AI stack

• Lead technical design, code quality, and best practices for engineering excellence

• Operate as a multiplier—mentoring, reviewing code, and raising standards

• Tackle the hardest problems in distributed systems, data, and AI engineering

• Shape how agentic workflows fit into the system, ensuring robustness, scalability, and integration with backend and infra layers

Requirements

• Extensive experience (typically 6+ years) building and scaling complex systems

• Deep understanding of distributed systems, data infrastructure, and backend architecture

• High proficiency in Python plus at least one systems language (Go, Rust, C++)

• Track record of technical leadership and mentorship in elite teams

• Relentless pursuit of technical excellence and first-principles problem solving

• Experience designing and deploying agentic systems for LLMs (e.g. LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, Haystack, or custom frameworks)

• Strong grasp of orchestration patterns: state management, persistence/checkpointing, streaming pipelines, human-in-the-loop flows, multi-agent coordination

• Familiarity with structured outputs (e.g. Pydantic), observability/tracing (LangSmith, OpenTelemetry), and vector/knowledge store integrations

• Experience with cloud platforms, containerization, and orchestration (AWS/GCP/Azure, Docker, Kubernetes)

• Expertise in leveraging the latest AI tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, etc.) to increase productivity & code output while maintaining high code quality, maintainability, and structure
