About The Position

AIVC's Studio turns validated venture concepts into shipped AI products with real users, building new companies from zero to product-market fit, with offices in New York and Chicago. AIVC is hiring a Senior AI Engineer (3-7 years) to join its Studio as a core builder. You are a quant-aspiring or big-tech engineer with an entrepreneurial streak who has shipped end-to-end AI systems to production, builds things nobody asked for, and wants real ownership in the companies you help create.

Requirements

2-5+ years at a top quant firm (Citadel, Two Sigma, DE Shaw, Jane Street) or an elite tech company (Google, Stripe, Ramp, Databricks, Modal), with clear individual output
End-to-end AI systems shipped to production with real users
Demonstrated entrepreneurial instinct: a side project, startup, internal 0-to-1 or innovation inside a large org
A STEM degree (CS, Math, Physics or Engineering) from a top university
Commercial EQ with non-technical stakeholders, customers and design partners

Responsibilities

Build end-to-end agentic AI systems (agents, retrieval, orchestration, tool integrations) for Studio ventures from 0 to 1 through product-market fit.
Take a venture's first product from scope to ship, cutting to the smallest thing that proves value and then hardening it for production.
Extract reusable primitives so each new venture starts further ahead.
Work with product strategists and design partners to shape what gets built.
Operate across very different venture contexts and thrive in ambiguity.
