Junior AI Engineer: Fintech ML in Production

AI Lynx S.r.l. in Naples seeks a talented ML/DL researcher to design and run reproducible experiments on financial time series and move models into production inside VEGA.

You’ll work daily with our CTO, conduct out-of-sample validation, and collaborate with university partners; expect autonomy over experiments, and opportunities to publish some general scientific work. Remote work from Italy with occasional Naples meetings; start autumn 2026.

Design and run reproducible experiments on financial time series: features, models, validation, and historical simulations. Test results out of sample; house rule: a result that doesn’t replicate doesn’t count. Take models into production, inside VEGA and the products in our pipeline. Work with researchers from the universities we collaborate with. Use frontier AI tools, including for research, and refine how we use them. Grounding in ML/DL fundamentals—training, evaluation, generalisation—and solid mathematics: probability, statistics, and linear algebra. At least one substantial ML project, academic projects included, whose choices, mistakes, and limitations you can discuss. Tracked, reproducible experiments, and the patience to stay with a problem that won’t give way for weeks.
