About the job
About Alva
Alva is an AI-powered platform for quantamental investing. We're building AI agents that automate the investment research workflow—from idea generation and data analytics to trend monitoring, strategy development, and backtesting—while enabling users to build, share, and refine their strategies together.

Our team is small and talent dense. We previously built Galxe, the largest growth platform in Web3 (30M+ users, $20M ARR).

About the role
You will build and ship AI agents that reliably complete investment-related tasks. You will:

Design, build, and deploy AI agents
Equip agents with specialized tools and knowledge
Implement safety guardrails
Create evals, monitor performance, and iterate quickly
Collaborate with product, operations, and quant researchers
We expect you to:

Have strong engineering fundamentals
Can own systems end-to-end
Be excited and thoughtful about AI
Be curious about markets/investing (deep expertise not required)
Mandarin proficiency is a must
