About the company
Opportunities to do genuinely frontier AI research at a prop trading firm in the UAE are rare. Most firms with real research ambition keep their ML teams in New York, London, or Singapore. This is one of the few exceptions, and the pedigree behind it is exceptional.
The UAE is a central part of their future. The office is growing quickly and is already home to senior AI researchers, quant leads, and strategy leadership. The team is small by design with a clear and funded plan to scale significantly. The people joining now will shape the culture, the tooling, and the direction of the research programme. Alongside this, the firm has secured compute resources allowing them to do large-scale foundational model work.
