Job Description

About Senpi

Senpi is building the agent runtime for Hyperliquid. Backed by $4.5M from Lemniscap and Coinbase Ventures, the company develops agentic execution infrastructure, a proprietary data layer (Hyperfeed), and an open-source strategy marketplace for autonomous AI trading agents.

Hyperliquid is the largest decentralized perpetual exchange (~$7B daily volume, $4T cumulative, 70%+ market share). Senpi provides the infrastructure layer enabling agents to operate on it.

The team includes founders of Airstack and engineers from Trust Wallet and Aave.

About the Role

• 
  Expand scanner systems and signal processing pipelines
