How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.
Don't make these mistakes
Generic enthusiasm about "AI in wealth management" or "the RIA market opportunity." Keyur has explicitly said the market does not have an information problem. It has a clarity problem. Outreach that leads with data abundance framing will contradict the product thesis he has built his company around.
What gets their attention
Capital 2B is the lead investor and the most important signal. It is the deeptech investment arm of Info Edge, India's largest digital classified and internet company (Naukri.com, 99acres, Shiksha). Capital 2B focuses specifically on AI, deep tech, and enterprise software. When they lead a wealthtech AI round, they are making a bet that the category will produce a substantial enterprise software business, not a narrow point solution. Their portfolio companies at this stage are pushed hard on enterprise sales infrastructure and technical depth simultaneously. iOPEX Technologies co-investing as a strategic participant, rather than purely financial, is an operational signal. iOPEX is an enterprise technology services company with significant US financial services client relationships. Their check is a distribution and partnership bet: they expect to deploy HyperNorm's platform inside their financial services client base and need the product roadmap to advance for that to work. The angel roster shapes the hiring bar in a specific direction. Dr. Amit Sheth's involvement is notable: he is one of the world's leading computer scientists in knowledge graphs, semantic web technologies, and AI reasoning. His investment in HyperNorm signals conviction in the causal reasoning architecture at a technical level that goes beyond general wealthtech enthusiasm. The engineering team is already partially assembled: Soumitra Saxena leads Engineering and Hemang Akbari is Principal MLE. The seed is the capital to build around them.

Why applying the normal way doesn't work
HyperNorm AI uses an ATS, but referrals still come first. Cold applications aren't ignored — they're just behind referrals, sourced candidates, and recruiter picks.

What to show them
The platform's core differentiator is its causal reasoning engine. Building causal inference systems that work reliably on financial time-series data, across asset classes with different liquidity profiles, different correlation regimes, and different mandate constraint types, is a research engineering problem that few teams are working on. Keyur's IISc background and published NLP/ML research sets the intellectual bar. The person who joins Hemang Akbari on the AI research side needs to be comfortable at the boundary between academic causal inference methods and production financial systems. Core skills: Causal inference (structural causal models, Pearl's do-calculus, or similar), time-series anomaly detection, financial data modelling (multi-asset portfolio risk), Python/PyTorch, knowledge graph or structured reasoning systems, publications at ML or finance-ML conferences a strong asset. Proof of work: Implement a minimal causal attribution system for a portfolio event: given a portfolio with 5 positions and a set of market events (rate change, earnings miss, macro data), trace which events causally contributed to the portfolio's deviation from its benchmark. Document the causal graph, the inference method, and where the approach breaks under correlated events. Publish the code.
