About the Role

~1 min read

You'll work alongside senior research scientists on problems at the frontier of LLM reasoning, post-training methodology, and agentic AI — in one of the few environments where your models interact with live global markets at scale.

This isn't a support or literature-review role. You'll run experiments, form independent hypotheses, implement ideas from recent papers, and work closely with engineering teams to understand how research behaves under real production constraints — 24/7, zero-downtime, hundreds of millions of users.

Current university students (Masters, PHD in AI track) or recent graduates who don't mind starting as intern. 

  • Design and run experiments in reasoning model training, post-training alignment, test-time compute scaling, and systematic model evaluation — grounded in financial and crypto-native problem settings
  • Implement model variants, training pipelines (including RLVR-based approaches), and evaluation frameworks in PyTorch and the Hugging Face ecosystem
  • Synthesize recent work from NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and ACL to sharpen active research directions — not just track the field, but translate it into testable ideas
  • Apply LLM reasoning to crypto-native data: on-chain signals, market microstructure, and multi-modal market intelligence — research opportunities that don't exist anywhere else
  • Maintain rigorous experiment tracking and reproducibility standards (W&B or equivalent)
  • Partner with applied engineering to understand how research translates into production systems — and what constraints actually matter
  • Currently pursuing a Master's or PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field (preferably graduating between 2026 to 2028)
  • Strong Python and PyTorch fundamentals; C++ or Rust exposure is a bonus 
  • Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools as a natural part of your research workflow — not as a crutch, but as leverage
  • Solid grounding in transformer architectures, LLM pretraining, and the shift toward reasoning-capable models
  • You form opinions about research, not just summaries of it
  • 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.
