Job description

About Binance Accelerator Program

Binance Accelerator Program is a concise fixed‑term program designed for Early Career Talent to have an immersive experience in the rapidly expanding Web3 space. You will be given the opportunity to experience life at Binance and understand what goes on behind the scenes of the world’s leading blockchain ecosystem. Alongside your job, there will also be a focus on networking and development, which will expand your professional network and build transferable skills to propel you forward in your career.

Who May Apply

• Current university students and recent graduates

About The Role

You’ll work directly on the AI systems powering Binance AI Products and next‑generation agentic trading features — alongside the full‑time algorithm team, on real production challenges. You own deliverables, run experiments, and ship code that matters. You build components of AI systems (agents, pipelines, evaluation tools), debug real systems, and work with engineers to ship features that reach users. This is not a “watch and learn” program. You are expected to build, contribute, and ship.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the design and development of LLM‑powered pipelines for agentic trading — including reasoning agent components, tool‑use frameworks via MCP, and automated workflow execution across crypto markets.
• Build and evaluate prompt engineering strategies, test‑time scaling approaches, and retrieval architectures for crypto‑native data sources — on‑chain data, market feeds, news, and sentiment signals.
• Design and run model evaluation experiments — defining quality metrics for agent reasoning in financial contexts, executing benchmarks, and synthesizing results into actionable findings.
• Analyze agent performance characteristics in live trading scenarios — covering decision accuracy, latency, reliability, and adversarial robustness.
• Apply AI‑native development practices using agentic coding tools as a standard part of the engineering workflow — writing and executing Python code for strategy logic, data pipelines, and agent evaluation.

Requirements

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or related technical field.
• Expected graduation in 2026 or 2027.
• Strong Python programming skills with demonstrated AI‑native development practices — you use agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot Workspace) as a core part of your workflow.
• Foundational understanding of how large language models work — attention mechanisms, prompting, and the difference between standard generation and reasoning models.
• Structured problem‑solving approach and ability to operate independently on defined tasks.

Why Binance

• Shape the future with the world’s leading blockchain ecosystem
• Collaborate with world‑class talent in a user‑centric global organization with a flat structure
• Tackle unique, fast‑paced projects with autonomy in an innovative environment
• Thrive in a results‑driven workplace with opportunities for career growth and continuous learning
• Competitive salary and company benefits
• Work‑from‑home arrangement (the arrangement may vary depending on the work nature of the business team)

Binance is committed to being an equal opportunity employer. We believe that having a diverse workforce is fundamental to our success.
