About the PositionWe are looking for Quantitative Researchers to help us build models, strategies, and systems that price and trade financial instruments. You'll apply your experience in experiment design, dataset generation, time series analysis, feature engineering, and model building to financial datasets, while collaborating with colleagues who will challenge and refine your approach.
About YouIf you've never thought about a career in finance, you're in good company. Many of us were in the same position before working here. If you have a curious mind and a passion for solving interesting problems, we have a feeling you'll fit right in. You should be:
- Able to apply logical and mathematical thinking to all kinds of problems
- Intellectually curious; eager to ask questions, admit mistakes, and learn new things
- A strong programmer who's comfortable with Python
- An open-minded thinker and precise communicator who enjoys collaborating with colleagues from a wide range of backgrounds and areas of expertise
Most candidates will have experience with data science or machine learning, though your approach to problem-solving and capacity to learn will weigh just as heavily as your existing expertise. Having a PhD or other research experience is a plus.
