Senior AI ML Engineers

Job Description Back-End Developer, Portfolio Management System Dedicated Engagement — Hurricane Capital Role Snapshot Engagement: Dedicated resource, employed/contracted through Transient.AI, invoiced to Hurricane Capital. 100% committed to Hurricane's work — not shared across accounts. Level: Mid-Level back-end developer (not junior, not principal). Location: Remote. Onshore or offshore, but must work U.S. East Coast hours. Type: Full-time, dedicated. Start: As soon as possible. MVP target: end of year. Works with: Rob and Rehan (Hurricane), plus Transient-side engineering for code review. The Work Hurricane Capital is building a portfolio management system from the ground up. This is fully Greenfield — the infrastructure does not exist yet, so you are building it, not maintaining someone else's. The immediate focus is Bloomberg connectivity and the Python back-end that market data flows through. You will be a dedicated engineer for Hurricane, working alongside Rob and Rehan in real time. Because the codebase lives on the Transient side and is reviewed before merge, you will also coordinate directly with Transient engineering. What You'll Own ● Build back-end services and APIs in Python from scratch for the portfolio management system. ● Implement and troubleshoot Bloomberg API connectivity for market data ingestion. ● Design and maintain the data layer — Postgres and SQL, with Snowflake as the cloud data warehouse. ● Work with Azure cloud infrastructure as the system requires. ● Collaborate live over Teams during East Coast hours to co-work and troubleshoot with Rob and Rehan. ● Coordinate with Transient engineering on code review and merges into the shared codebase. What Good Looks Like ● A working MVP of the portfolio management system is delivered by end of year, built in parallel with existing workstreams. ● Bloomberg connectivity is completed and stable, with market data flowing reliably through the Python APIs. ● Hurricane's work moves in real time — no waiting on cross-account turnaround, because this capacity is dedicated. ● Code clears Transient-side review cleanly, with trust established during hiring so there is no gating delay. Must Have ● Strong Python for back-end and API development. ● Hands-on Bloomberg API experience. ● Ability to work U.S. East Coast hours consistently (non-negotiable — daily live collaboration depends on it). ● Database experience: SQL and Postgres. Strong Plus ● Snowflake (cloud data warehouse). ● Azure cloud experience. ● JavaScript. ● Familiarity with capital markets or market data products. Nice for Later The MVP does not require AI/ML work. Over time the system is expected to move in that direction, so appetite to learn and grow into AI-enabled features is a genuine plus — and part of what makes this role interesting. Why This Role ● Completely Greenfield — you build the entire infrastructure from the ground up, not patch an existing system. ● Dedicated to one team, working directly with Rob and Rehan rather than split across clients. ● A clear path to grow into AI-enabled portfolio management as the system matures.

Build backend systems that make complex workflows reliable, maintainable, and easier to evolve. You’ll work on production Python services, modernize existing applications, and deliver APIs and integrations used by real teams.

The role is focused on backend development using Python, Django, and FastAPI, with occasional contributions to frontend applications built with React or Next.js. You will work across API development, system integrations, data workflows, background processing, and the modernization of existing services.

You will help improve reliability and operational maturity using AWS, practical Site Reliability Engineering principles, and observability platforms such as Datadog, Grafana, CloudWatch, Prometheus, or similar tools.

This is a backend-first role for an engineer who understands that testing, security, reliability, and observability are core parts of production software development.

What you'll do

• Own the delivery and day-to-day reliability of clearly scoped backend features and APIs built with Python, Django, and FastAPI.
• Improve the maintainability of existing services by simplifying legacy workflows, business logic, data models, and integrations.
• Deliver secure, well-documented APIs that enable frontend applications, internal tools, and third-party integrations.
• Keep data workflows reliable through safe schema changes, migrations, backfills, validation, and failure recovery.
• Build background jobs and asynchronous workflows that handle retries, timeouts, rate limits, idempotency, and operational failures.
• Raise confidence in releases through automated tests, thoughtful code reviews, and production-readiness checks.
• Improve performance and reliability using profiling, query optimization, caching, monitoring, and practical fault handling.
• Make services easier to operate by maintaining useful logs, metrics, dashboards, alerts, and runbooks.
• Contribute to React or Next.js integrations and internal administration interfaces when needed to deliver complete product outcomes.
• Collaborate with product, frontend, platform, DevOps, SRE, and operations teammates to ship well-scoped solutions and document technical decisions.

What we're looking for

Required

• 3–5 years of professional software engineering experience, mainly in backend development.
• Good proficiency in Python and production experience with either Django or FastAPI, with willingness to learn the other.
• Practical experience designing REST APIs and integrating with third-party or internal services.
• Working knowledge of SQL, relational databases, an ORM such as Django ORM or SQLAlchemy, and database migrations.
• Experience writing automated tests and diagnosing defects or production issues.
• Good problem-solving, communication, documentation, and collaboration skills.

Preferred

• Familiarity with background jobs or asynchronous processing using Celery, SQS, RabbitMQ, Kafka, or similar tools.
• Experience deploying or supporting applications on AWS or another cloud platform.
• Familiarity with structured logging, metrics, dashboards, alerts, and observability tools.
• Exposure to React or Next.js integrations.
• Experience with Docker, Redis, webhooks, queues, or event-driven systems.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, secrets management, and least-privilege access.
• Experience helping with production incidents, performance testing, or safe deployment practices.
