xAI, Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, is looking to add crypto experts to the team as it ramps up efforts to train its AI models in advanced crypto analysis, on-chain research, and quantitative trading strategies, according to a newly published job posting.
The role requires deep knowledge of crypto markets, quantitative strategies, DeFi protocols, and portfolio optimization under high volatility.
Applicants should hold advanced degrees in quantitative fields or have equivalent crypto trading experience, with proficiency in blockchain data platforms like Nansen, Chainalysis, and CoinMarketCap.
xAI said the initiative is designed to teach AI systems how expert crypto traders reason and execute strategies in volatile, 24/7 markets.
xAI, which has merged with SpaceX, is known for Grok, its flagship generative AI chatbot. The company rolled out Grok 4.1 in November 2025. Musk has predicted that his AI might uncover new physics as early as this year.
xAI-owned X is set to introduce peer-to-peer payments, trading, and investment features as part of Musk’s vision for an “everything app” that may also offer an X-branded credit or debit card.
