4 open roles · Apex, NC · Hybrid

Build the workforce that has to prove itself.

We don't ship demos. Our trading platform publishes a live P&L anyone can audit, and our AI crews write code that runs on a customer's own machine. That standard is the job: everything you build here gets measured by whether it actually worked, in production, in front of people who can check.


Why Here

A small team, shipping things that get audited.

Agility Business Services is the parent company behind the Quantlys Vertical AI Platform and the Quantum Trading Platform. We're early enough that what you build is visible in the product within weeks — and disciplined enough that it has to survive real scrutiny before it goes out.

Your work is measurable

Shipped software, executed trades, live P&L. You'll rarely have to argue about whether something worked — the number is on a public dashboard.

Hard constraints, honestly

Local-first, keys never leave the user's machine, full audit trails for regulated desks. The constraints are real engineering problems, not marketing copy.

Range, not a narrow lane

A team this size means one person's week can span an agent orchestration bug, a Postgres policy, and a landing page. If you want to specialize forever, this isn't it.

AI Architect
Senior / Staff Apex, NC · Hybrid Full-time Platform & Orchestration

You own the architecture of the multi-agent system underneath both products — how agents are composed into crews, how typed artifacts move between them, and how the supervisor decides a handoff is good enough to pass forward. This is the most consequential technical role on the team: the orchestration core is what every future vertical is built on, and it is patent-pending because the design decisions are the product.

What you'll do

  • Own the end-to-end architecture of the agent orchestration engine — role definitions, typed handoff contracts, validation gates, and supervisor arbitration logic.
  • Design the schemas and contracts that let independently-built agents interoperate, so a customer-authored agent drops into the line without special-casing.
  • Set the local-first architecture: how work executes on a user's machine with their keys, what state can and cannot leave it, and how we prove that boundary holds.
  • Define the evaluation strategy for non-deterministic systems — how we know a crew got better and not just different.
  • Architect the compliance surface for funds and desks: audit trails, policy controls, budget enforcement, on-prem and hybrid deployment.
  • Write the design docs and ADRs the team builds against, and review the implementations that follow.
  • Partner with the founder on technical strategy and contribute to patent filings.

What you bring

  • 8+ years building production software, with 3+ years designing distributed or multi-service systems you personally owned end to end.
  • Deep, hands-on LLM application experience — agentic loops, tool use, structured output, retrieval, context management. You've shipped one, not just read about them.
  • A real point of view on evaluating non-deterministic systems, and the scar tissue that produced it.
  • Strong Python. Comfortable reading and writing across the stack when the architecture demands it.
  • Ability to write a design document that a mid-level engineer can implement without a meeting.
  • Judgment about which constraints are worth the complexity and which are premature.

Nice to have

  • Background in quantitative finance, trading infrastructure, or another domain where being wrong is expensive and immediately visible.
  • Experience with regulated or on-prem enterprise deployment.
  • Prior patent authorship, or published technical writing.

AI Engineer
Mid / Senior Apex, NC · Hybrid Full-time Agents & Signals

You build the agents themselves — the PM that interrogates an idea, the QA that refuses to ship bugs, the signal generator that has to commit to a direction on a real ticker. This is applied LLM engineering where the output is checked against reality: code that has to compile and run, trades that settle in an account with a published P&L. Prompt quality here is an engineering discipline with a feedback loop, not a vibes exercise.

What you'll do

  • Build and iterate on the agent roles in the Quantlys crew — spec generation, architecture, code generation, and test authoring — against typed handoff contracts.
  • Develop the signal-generation prompts and payload validation for the Quantum Trading pipeline, where a malformed or hedging output is a real failure.
  • Build evaluation harnesses and regression suites that catch quality drops before a customer does.
  • Wire agents into production paths: FastAPI services, Supabase edge functions, and n8n workflow steps with proper error handling and idempotency.
  • Instrument everything — token cost, latency, failure modes, handoff rejection rates — and act on what it shows.
  • Turn recurring failure patterns into structural fixes in the orchestration layer rather than one-off prompt patches.

What you bring

  • 3+ years of professional software engineering, with at least 1 year shipping LLM-backed features to real users.
  • Strong Python and comfort with async services, typed schemas, and API design.
  • Practical command of structured output, tool use, function calling, and context-window management.
  • A rigorous, empirical approach to prompt and model behavior — you build the eval before you claim the improvement.
  • Willingness to read the domain. You don't need finance background, but you need to be the kind of person who learns what a Sharpe ratio means because the work requires it.

Nice to have

  • Experience with multi-agent frameworks, or having built your own orchestration because the frameworks didn't fit.
  • Exposure to market data, technical indicators, or trading systems.
  • Familiarity with n8n, Supabase, or similar workflow and backend platforms.

Junior Software Engineer
Junior · 0–2 yrs Apex, NC · Hybrid Part-time Full-stack

You'll write code that customers use, in your first month. On a team this size a junior engineer isn't parked on a side project — you'll own real features across the product surface, from the portfolio calculator and P&L dashboard to the backend endpoints and database policies behind them. You'll be reviewed closely and taught deliberately, and you'll be expected to grow fast.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain features across the quantlys.ai and agilityserv.com product surface — dashboards, calculators, signal panels, and marketing pages.
  • Write backend endpoints and database queries, including Postgres schema changes and row-level security policies under review.
  • Fix bugs end to end: reproduce it, find the actual cause, write a test that would have caught it, then ship the fix.
  • Write tests as a normal part of the work rather than a separate phase.
  • Participate in code review — both receiving it thoroughly and, over time, giving it.
  • Use our own AI crew as a daily tool and tell us where it falls short. You'll be one of its most honest users.

What you bring

  • 0–2 years of professional experience, or a strong internship and project record. A CS degree, a bootcamp, or a self-taught path all work — we care about what you can build.
  • Working proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and Python, with real projects we can look at.
  • Comfort with HTML, CSS, React, and SQL fundamentals.
  • Git fluency and a habit of clear, small commits.
  • The instinct to debug rather than guess, and to ask a sharp question once you've actually looked.
  • Honesty about what you don't know yet. It's the single best predictor of who does well here.

Nice to have

  • Personal projects, open-source contributions, or anything you built and shipped because you wanted it to exist.
  • Exposure to Next.js, Supabase, or Vercel.
  • Interest in markets, quantitative work, or AI systems.

Engineering Intern
Internship · Paid Apex, NC · Hybrid Students & new grads Summer / semester

A paid internship where you ship something real and put your name on it. You'll be given an actual scoped project — not a sandbox — with a named mentor, weekly one-on-ones, and a code review on everything you write. At the end you'll demo what you built to the whole team. Several of the best engineers we know started exactly here, and strong interns are our first call when a junior role opens.

What you'll do

  • Own a scoped project end to end over your internship — something with a real user on the other side of it.
  • Pair with senior engineers and get thorough review on your pull requests.
  • Learn the production workflow properly: version control, testing, code review, deployment, and what happens when something breaks.
  • Work hands-on with LLM-backed systems and, depending on your interest, market data and trading infrastructure.
  • Demo your work to the team at the end and write up what you learned.

What you bring

  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, or a related field — or a self-taught equivalent you can show us.
  • Programming fundamentals in at least one language, ideally Python or JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Coursework, personal projects, or hackathon work you're proud to walk us through.
  • Genuine curiosity about AI systems or quantitative finance, and the persistence to stay with a problem past the first frustration.
  • Availability to be in the Apex office on our hybrid schedule.

What you'll get

  • Paid internship with a named mentor and structured weekly one-on-ones.
  • Real production code shipped under your name, and a reference that describes specific work.
  • First consideration for junior engineering roles as they open.

Technical conversation

60 minutes walking through real work — yours or ours. Reading and reasoning about code, not whiteboard trivia.

03
Practical exercise

A short, paid, scoped problem close to the actual job. Timeboxed and respectful of your schedule.

04
Team & offer

Meet the people you'd work with, ask us anything, then a decision and compensation discussion.

Location

Apex, North Carolina — hybrid.

All four roles are based in Apex, in the Raleigh–Durham Research Triangle. We work hybrid: in the office together for collaboration and review, remote for focused build time.

  • Apex, NC — Research Triangle, minutes from Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill.
  • Hybrid schedule — core in-office days for pairing and review, the rest on your own terms.
  • Eastern Time — we keep meetings few and deliberate, and protect long build blocks.
  • Must be authorized to work in the US. We're not sponsoring visas for these roles at this time.
