Job Description

What is the opportunity?

The AI & Digital Innovation team in RBC Capital Markets is seeking an AI Engineer with expertise in software engineering, applied AI, Generative AI, and quantitative computation to collaborate with Sales & Trading and develop desk-facing solutions. You will work across how sales understand clients, how sales and traders set a price, and how that price drives a sale, applying predictive analytics at scale to electronic trading and automated price setting.

Should you be shortlisted, do please let us know if you have any specific requirements for the interview.

This is a permanent, full-time role and requires 4 days in the 100 Bishopsgate, London office.

What will you do?

Identify and build desk-facing applied AI capabilities for Sales & Trading, with an emphasis on improving how sales understand clients, how sales and traders set a price, and how that price drives a sale.

Frame ambiguous commercial questions as tractable quantitative and applied AI problems, translating business needs and desk context into clear opportunities that can be evaluated, delivered, and adopted by real users.

Develop predictive analytics for electronic trading and automated price setting, with an emphasis on using evidence from large-scale data to strengthen pricing judgment and improve the usefulness of desk-facing capabilities.

Design and implement computation at scale for heavy data work, making quantitative analysis practical, repeatable, and reliable while supporting solutions that can operate effectively in production environments.

Deliver applied AI solutions end to end through evaluation, production readiness, and adoption, shortening the path from an identified opportunity to a capability that real users can rely on in their day-to-day work.

Learn from real user feedback and improve delivered capabilities after they are in use, with an emphasis on responding to observed needs, strengthening reliability, and increasing practical value for Sales & Trading stakeholders.
