Responsibilities
- Partner independently with Quants to translate research into production-ready models that inform the investment decision-making process.
- Work on Quant models in rates, credit & FX.
- Support the research-to-production lifecycle — from validation and deployment through ongoing production support.
- Architect and improve proprietary models and production systems for reliability, resiliency, scalability, and performance.
- Lead code and model reviews, and own the operational health of your systems — monitoring, alerting, incident response, and technical debt.
- Operate as a hands-on individual contributor — leading work streams within broader projects, and a small team when a specific project calls for it.
Requirements
- Advanced degree in a quantitative field (Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, or Financial Engineering).
- 5+ years of progressive software engineering experience.
- Front-office software development experience within Asset Management, a Hedge Fund, an Investment Bank, or FinTech.
- Advanced Python, and proficiency on Linux with common scripting languages.
- Strong analytical skills, including working with and analyzing large data sets.
- Strong grasp of testing approaches, with a focus on performance and accuracy.
- Experience delivering in an Agile environment.
- Working knowledge of Fixed Income markets and securities (focus on cash bonds/rates), including pricing, curve construction, and risk analytics (duration, convexity, DV01).
- Advanced mathematical knowledge (e.g., statistics, time-series analysis, asset-pricing theory, optimization algorithms).
- Strong knowledge of one or more SQL / NoSQL databases.
- Experience building containerized applications and deploying to cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, or similar).
- Experience with web-based development and data visualization for large, complex data sets.
