This idea can come from anyone: you, the mentor who sits beside you, or someone you meet in the cafeteria.As a Quantitative Systematic Trader, you will investigate that idea by immersing yourself in market data, leveraging tools in mathematics, statistics, and programming.Through your research, you may discover a new pattern that can transform into a trading signal.To assess the strength of that trading signal, you will run it through our backtesting environment and carefully analyze its performance.If that signal produces profitable results, you will work side-by-side with technologists and put it into production.Once that signal is embedded in our electronic trading strategies, you will actively monitor its real-time performance in the financial markets.As your trading strategy evolves, you will discuss with other researchers, strategists, and traders to collect feedback and brainstorm new ideas.Some of those ideas will turn into new quant projects, and the life cycle starts all over again.What we're looking for Honours or Master's degree in a quantitative field such as Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Operations Research, or EconomicsSolid, analytical problem-solving skillsExcellent logical reasoningExceptional communication skills, both in the ability to understand others and to make yourself clearly understoodExperience writing code to process and analyze large sets of data, especially in PythonExperience in C++ or other low-level programming languages is a plusDemonstrated interest in strategic games and/or competitive activitiesAbility to thrive in fast-paced environmentsInterview Process Apply -> Online Assessments -> Recruiter Interview -> Technical Interview -> Final Round Interviews -> Job Offer!
