AI Specialist

Rothera is building the premier prediction market in partnership with Robinhood and Susquehanna International Group. They are seeking an AI Specialist to own and execute their enterprise-wide AI strategy and tactics, bridging cutting-edge AI capabilities with institutional-grade security in a financial services setting.

Responsibilities:

• AI Strategy & Roadmap: Formulate and maintain the company’s AI adoption roadmap, continuously evaluating the performance, cost, and security trade-offs of frontier models (e.g., Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, OpenAI) and specialized financial LLMs
• Strict Data Isolation: Enforce zero-data-retention and data isolation protocols across all AI integrations, guaranteeing that company data is never used for external model training
• Access Control & Auditing: Work with security engineering to implement centralized identity and access management (IAM), credential management, role-based access control (RBAC), and full audit logging for model endpoints
• Managed Cloud Solutions: Architect, deploy, and maintain secure enterprise AI integrations leveraging cloud-based platforms such as, for example, AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, or Azure OpenAI
• MCP & Agent Frameworks: Evaluate, standardise, and deploy protocol architectures like Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely connect frontier models with internal databases, tools, and enterprise applications
• Heuristics & Optimization: Establish cost/performance heuristics (model routing, prompt caching, token budgets) and embed them into user interfaces so staff naturally leverage the most effective model for each task
• Cross-Functional Enablement: Serve as the hands-on AI advisor for all teams—coaching developers using AI for code generation/testing, accounting teams automating month-end closeouts, legal teams conducting contract reviews, and marketing staff generating copy and presentations
• Custom Agents & Tooling: Assist staff across all functional units in building, deploying, and maintaining custom GPTs/agents, workflows, and prompts tailored to specific domain tasks
• Training Programs: Design and execute structured training curricula, bootcamps, and office hours to elevate AI literacy and practical competency across the entire headcount
