About StockStory
Index.dev is partnering with StockStory (CNBC / VERSANT) to hire a Senior AI Engineer in Prague.
VERSANT is an independent, publicly traded company that brings together powerhouse brands such as CNBC, MS NOW (formerly MSNBC), USA Network, Oxygen, E!, SYFY, and Golf Channel along with dynamic digital and direct-to-consumer brands such as Fandango, Rotten Tomatoes, GolfNow, GolfPass, and SportsEngine.
StockStory, now part of CNBC under VERSANT, is building the next generation of AI-powered equity research for individual investors. This is a chance to build products that can shape how millions of consumers understand markets and make investing decisions.
We offer the best parts of a startup environment — small team, high ownership, fast execution, and room to experiment — with the backing and stability of VERSANT, an independent publicly traded media company.
As an AI engineer, you will work on both an existing AI product with real user impact and greenfield projects with significant room for exploration. The work spans cutting-edge LLMs, large-scale data systems, financial reasoning, and research tooling, with opportunities to apply ideas from functional programming and graph-based systems where they create real advantage.
You will be joining a team of exceptional engineers, analysts, and investors working at the intersection of AI and public markets. A particularly rare part of this role is the level of direct access to experienced market professionals, including former hedge fund managers and top-tier analysts, whose insights can directly inform how you think about modeling, signals, and product design.
The Role
We're looking for a highly capable Senior AI Engineer to join our team to build the next generation of AI-powered equity research.
This role is for engineers who enjoy turning LLM and agentic AI capabilities into reliable product systems embedded in real-world workflows. It is especially well suited to people who want to work hands-on across architecture, implementation, and operations while helping define how AI capabilities get integrated into products used by individual investors.
You will design, build, and operate core components of our AI platform: distributed agentic workflows, retrieval and reranking systems, model integrations, and the infrastructure required to make these systems reliable, observable, and scalable in production.
This role sits within a small and growing, high-caliber team where individuals are expected to operate with a high degree of ownership and autonomy, contributing directly to core product, engineering, and AI systems decisions while working closely with peers, product stakeholders, and senior leadership in a highly collaborative, low-bureaucracy environment with direct access to decision-makers.
A genuine interest in investing, public markets, and fundamental business analysis is expected.
