The most important asset for a company in our field is its people: their intelligence, creativity, dedication, honesty, integrity and passion for what they do. We are always looking for outstanding individuals having excellent analytical skills, relentless intellectual curiosity and a drive to excel at the highest level and wanting to test their limits. We want consummate team players who seek a highly rigorous and challenging environment.
If you are a doer and not just a talker and you are proactive, enjoy challenges and are interested in working with some of the best minds in the financial industry then you should keep reading.
If you are excellent at any of these things: building models that are simple, robust and efficient, optimizing and developing efficient algorithms and computation methods, testing trading strategies or creating new strategies ideas and analysing them to determine all their weaknesses, forgetting established ideas and analysing issues from scratch with a fresh perspective and coming up with actionable ideas and solutions; but also have the humility and integrity to recognize the limits of the models and the importance of intuition and then creativity to integrate both the quantitative results and qualitative analysis into a unified framework, then we would like to speak to you. We recruit at different levels of experience, from junior to seasoned professionals. The most important requirement is your intelligence, motivation and desire to achieve the highest levels of quality expected by us and our clients.
