Its mission is to accelerate the research and trading strategies of Millennium’s systematic Portfolio Management teams by serving as an internal center of excellence for expert-level solutions, architecture, and hands-on development in AI, cloud platforms including AWS and GCP, DevOps, and high-performance computing. The team’s engagement model ranges from expert advisory and solutions architecture to fully embedded, project-based implementations that build bespoke solutions directly for Portfolio Management teams. The team also builds and maintains managed services, libraries, and reusable patterns that form the foundation of modern quantitative research at the firm.\nWhat You’ll Do\nTake on a role that is not a typical software development position; blend solutions architecture, software engineering, and client engagement as a hands-on, business-facing engineer, partnering directly with systematic Portfolio Management teams, quantitative researchers, developers, and portfolio managers as a trusted technical advisor.\nUnderstand unique business and research needs and translate complex, sometimes ambiguous requirements into robust, scalable, and secure technical architectures across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments.\nDesign, build, and deliver high-quality, production-ready solutions across the full stack, including Python libraries, infrastructure as code with Terraform, CI/CD pipelines, automation scripts, and ML/AI proof-of-concepts.\nDevelop and maintain managed products, reusable libraries, engineering patterns, and best practice guides that expand self-service capabilities and accelerate onboarding for new and existing teams.\nOwn embedded engagements from discovery and planning through implementation, knowledge transfer, and support, acting as the primary technical point of contact while removing blockers and navigating the firm’s ecosystem on behalf of business partners.\nPrepare and deliver compelling presentations, architectural diagrams, and software demos for technical and non-technical audiences, articulating complex technical concepts in clear, business-centric terms to build consensus and drive decisions.\nStay at the forefront of AI, MLOps, and cloud and hybrid technologies, building solutions for advanced use cases including distributed GPU training, large-scale data processing, and the integration of generative AI into research workflows.\nParticipate in the team’s on-call rotation, providing expert-level support for managed products and core platforms including cloud, DevOps, and grid environments, while turning support challenges into engineering opportunities through intelligent automation and AI agents that reduce manual work and improve operational efficiency.\nWhat You Bring\nBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.\n6+ years of professional software development experience, with a strong foundation in computer science principles including data structures, algorithms, and system design.\nHigh proficiency in an object-oriented programming language, with a strong preference for Python.\nDemonstrated experience in a customer-facing or business-facing role, with high emotional intelligence, a customer-first mindset, humility to meet business partners where they are, satisfaction in enabling the success of others, and willingness to go the extra mile to deliver an exceptional client experience.\nHands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider, including AWS or GCP, and familiarity with infrastructure as code concepts and tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or AWS CDK.\nExperience designing systems and architectures from ambiguous business needs, with the ownership, autonomy, resilience, and composure to break down complex problems, navigate demanding stakeholders, and deliver tangible business value in high-pressure, high-stakes environments.\nProficiency with scheduling or asynchronous workflow frameworks and services such as AWS Step Functions, Airflow, Dagster, or Temporal, as well as DevOps tooling including AWS CodePipeline, GitHub Actions, or GCP Cloud Build, CI/CD practices, and containerization with Docker and Kubernetes.\nExcellent verbal and written communication skills, the ability to build strong relationships and articulate complex ideas to diverse audiences, a pragmatic and adaptable approach that balances technical quality with business necessity, willingness to move from high-level architectural design to hands-on scripting and operational support to solve problems, and a foundational interest and passion for AI/ML and its practical applications. Preferred experience includes financial services or fintech, building applications on top of LLMs using frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex, Retrieval-Augmented Generation patterns, MLOps tooling and concepts such as MLflow, model serving, feature stores, or pipeline orchestration with Kubeflow, Vertex AI, or SageMaker, and AWS or GCP cloud certifications at the Associate or Professional level.\nSalary Range\nMillennium offers a total compensation package which includes a base salary, discretionary performance bonus, and comprehensive benefits. The estimated base salary range for this position is $175,000 to $250,000, which is specific to New York and may change in the future. When finalizing an offer, we take into consideration an individual’s experience level and the qualifications they bring to the role to formulate a competitive total compensation package.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6680,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Continuous learning"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Hedge Funds & Alternative Investments"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-28T18:51:53Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":93,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-08T05:47:12Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":250000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/millennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/millennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-08T11:40:39Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":25016,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":704283},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=704283"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmillennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmillennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmillennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/millennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmillennium-management-senior-forward-deployed-software-engineer-equities-technology"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3414440}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"mlp.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3414440},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
