About the role

The Director of QuantAI Research and Rapid Prototyping will spearhead the full-stack execution layer for QuantAI assets, turning quantitative and agentic prototypes into applications, interfaces, workflow tools, services, and packaged products that can hold up with internal senior leaders, expert users, and client stakeholders.

Responsibilities

  • Spearhead the full-stack productization path for QuantAI assets, turning quantitative and agentic prototypes into applications, interfaces, workflow tools, services, and packaged products that can hold up with internal senior leaders, expert users, and client stakeholders.
  • Stand up frontend experiences that make advanced algorithms usable in real workflows, including dashboards, expert-facing application flows, evaluation views, governance interfaces, and decision-support surfaces for trading, energy, utilities, industrial, and adjacent financial use cases.
  • Make pragmatic architecture choices across frontend, backend, application programming interfaces (APIs), data flows, model-serving surfaces, agentic orchestration, and evaluation infrastructure.
  • Decide when a solution should be cloud-hosted, client-hosted, locally packaged, desktop-first, or hybrid, and navigate the trade-offs across security, data access, user workflow, latency, cost, and enterprise approval paths.
  • Research and evaluate internal Accenture capabilities, client technology constraints, commercial platforms, and open-source tooling, then choose the simplest path that can move fast without creating fragile or non-compliant systems.
  • Build, review, and unblock implementation across Python, TypeScript or JavaScript, modern web frameworks, APIs, data services, and deployment workflows.
  • Establish product engineering discipline around authentication, role-based access control (RBAC), observability, security, release quality, continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), cost controls, regression testing, and evaluation of artificial intelligence (AI) and agentic behavior.
  • Use agentic development tools such as Codex and Claude fluently to accelerate delivery, while keeping human judgment, code review, security, testing, and architecture decisions firmly in the loop.
  • Work closely with the Director of QuantAI Research, quants, fullstack engineers, strategists and client-facing teams so model logic, evaluation intent, governance requirements, and user workflow all survive and thrive through the move from algorithms into products.
  • Help build the full-stack side of the team by shaping hiring signals, coaching fullstack engineers, setting technical standards, and creating repeatable build patterns that make each prototype easier to productize than the last.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, physics, economics, finance, operations research, or a related field, plus a strong record of shipped software.
  • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience building and shipping full-stack applications, workflow products, internal tools, platforms, AI or machine learning products, or other software systems that moved beyond proof-of-concept stage.
  • Minimum of 2 years of hands-on depth across full-stack delivery: modern front-end work, backend services or APIs, databases or data flows, deployment paths, and practical debugging across several layers of the stack.

Qualifications

  • Strong product and architecture judgment in ambiguous environments: you can turn unclear needs into scoped releases, choose between hosted, desktop, hybrid, internal, external, commercial, and open-source options, and explain the trade-offs clearly.
  • Evidence that you can operate as a hands-on builder-manager: review technical work rigorously, unblock implementation, coach or manage engineers, help hire strong builders, communicate with senior stakeholders, and maintain a high bar without becoming a passive layer above the work.
  • Experience with tools and platforms commonly used in this work, such as React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, Vite, Vercel, Python, FastAPI, Electron, Tauri, Docker, cloud services, Kubernetes, CI/CD systems, observability tooling, model-serving infrastructure, or evaluation frameworks.
  • Experience building AI or agentic systems, including large language model (LLM) application patterns, agent orchestration, retrieval, tool use, memory, evaluation harnesses, guardrails, or human-in-the-loop workflows.
  • Experience in energy, power, utilities, commodities, trading, market operations, industrial systems, financial workflows, or other high-stakes decision-support environments.
