Software Developer Researcher Jobs in New York (NOW HIRING)

Preface

The architectural integrity of global investment and technology research relies on the seamless convergence of Agentic AI and rigorous computational execution. Within this domain, where the synthesis of complex data and high-performance systems is the primary objective, the necessity for first-principles mastery extends beyond the laboratory and into the operational nucleus of the organization. StaffRight Associates is seeking an elite professional to join the Software Engineering team at a world-class firm dedicated to the advancement of computational excellence. This role demands a candidate who possesses the intellectual pedigree required to navigate the complex challenges of a research-intensive environment. By bridging specialized technical awareness with proactive problem-solving, the successful candidate will ensure the structural alignment of the firm’s strategic mission with its technical execution.

The Mission

StaffRight Associates is recruiting for a Software Developer, Agentic AI, who will serve as a vital catalyst within a premier organization. The mission is to decouple systemic friction from analytical progress, allowing the firm’s leadership to maintain a singular focus on the acceleration of Molecular Dynamics Simulation & Drug Discovery. You will be tasked with the sophisticated management of AI-powered systems, smart agents, and retrieval frameworks (RAG), transforming abstract organizational needs into formalized, actionable results. This role requires a high degree of technical literacy to effectively support a team leveraging proprietary architectures and sophisticated algorithms to revolutionize Targeted Therapeutics and Machine Learning Research.

Core Technical Objectives

• Orchestrate Systemic Workflows: Formalize and execute complex protocols and high-stakes technical workflows—from idea conception and prototyping to production-scale deployment—to ensure continuous operational flow for the Software Engineering and ML Research groups.

• Synthesize Complex Data: Conduct ad hoc technical and market research projects, optimizing intelligent data workflows and feedback loops to improve the quality, scaling, and efficiency of ML model training.

• Optimize Operational Frameworks: Validate and process intricate documentation and technical requirements, integrating cutting-edge generative AI tools with advanced scientific software with meticulous attention to detail.

• Engineer Multi-Project Solutions: Independently manage a diverse portfolio of concurrent projects, applying a proactive Goal-Execution-Mapping (GEM) approach to automate complex workflows and code generation, effectively solving emergent bottlenecks.

• Facilitate Elite Communication: Serve as a discreet and articulate interface between the technical committee and internal/external stakeholders, maintaining the highest standards of professional integrity within an interdisciplinary environment.

Candidate DNA

• Architectural Philosophy: A mindset rooted in efficiency and resilience, with the ability to navigate a hybrid, high-pressure environment without supervision.

• Resourceful Problem-Solving: A proven track record of autonomous execution and a history of high technical achievement, demonstrating the ability to anticipate systemic bottlenecks before they impact the broader workflow.

• Communication Precision: Exceptional interpersonal skills characterized by clarity, discretion, and the ability to interact with elite scientific and business minds in a highly collaborative ecosystem.

• Functional Versatility: A generalist mindset driven by intense intellectual curiosity, capable of pivoting between rigorous software infrastructure execution and technical inquiry within a high-performance ecosystem.

Academic & Research Pedigree

• Educational Foundation: An advanced degree is preferred, Masters - PhD, ideally within a STEM discipline or a related field that provides a foundation for understanding Computational Biophysics, Computer Science, or Machine Learning.

• Domain Expertise: Prior professional engagement within high-performance computing, advanced technology sectors, or a strong track record of designing and developing software systems (ideally in Python) is highly advantageous.

• Quantitative Literacy: Comfort with the mathematical and operational rigor inherent in a firm focused on proprietary supercomputing architectures and high-speed data processing.
