AI/ML Engineer AI Operating System for Capital Markets Location Bangalore/Chennai Experience 5+ years Function Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning Employment Type About Transient.AI Full-time Transient.AI is building a next-generation AI Operating System for capital markets — a unified intelligence layer that connects research, trading, compliance, and sales functions at banks and hedge funds. Today, these teams largely operate on disconnected legacy systems, forcing manual, expensive workarounds. Transient.AI replaces that fragmentation with a single AI-native layer built for institutional-grade compliance, security, and auditability. The company already has live products in market, including Caddie.AI (a research automation tool that cuts hedge fund research time significantly), ClarityRIA (helping sales teams identify the right investors in seconds), and CapFlo.AI (automated parsing of complex derivatives contracts). Founded by former traders and technologists from Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse, UBS, and McKinsey, Transient.AI is headquartered in New York, with teams in Miami, Singapore, and India. The company has raised Series A funding and is scaling its engineering and product organization globally.
