Event Horizon Labs — San Francisco (in-person)
We're a small, tight-knit team building autonomous research infrastructure from scratch. The orchestrator, the agents, the compounding knowledge base are already discovering profitable strategies and scaling with each new model release. These are founding roles with competitive salary and equity.
The next breakthrough isn't a better model — it's infrastructure for autonomous problem-solving. Markets are the first domain because feedback is immediate, signal is verifiable, and outcomes are directly monetizable. What we're building doesn't stop at markets.
Team from Citadel, Jump Trading, Stanford, Caltech, Berkeley.
You build the system that generates alpha. Design the research orchestration layer — what to explore, how to evaluate it, what to remember — and train the models that power it. You'll work at the intersection of ML systems and quantitative finance, closing the loop from hypothesis to P&L.

Details
We operate a platform that automates quantitative research — generating hypotheses, backtesting strategies, and analyzing results. Hundreds of agents run in parallel and learn from what the others discovered. We are building a fund that scales on agents, not researchers.

Founder
No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
