You will help build and evolve the firm's quantitative trading and research framework, working closely with researchers to take strategies from research through to production.

This will include improving research workflows, productionising trading strategies, building tools and infrastructure across the strategy lifecycle, and raising engineering standards across the research environment.

The team is also increasingly working with machine learning and AI-driven research, providing the opportunity to build infrastructure and tooling supporting these initiatives.

What We're Looking For

  • Experience working directly with Quantitative Researchers within systematic trading
  • Good understanding of quantitative strategies and the underlying investment logic
  • Experience taking research code and strategies into robust production environments
  • Exposure to ML pipelines and production machine learning
  • Strong software engineering practices across testing, architecture and code quality
