About the Role

Partner with asset allocation PMs and researchers to take ideas from notebook to production, build and extend the team's research platform, and own the multi-asset data layer. Utilize AI coding agents for prototyping, refactoring, testing, review, and documentation, and build internal AI-backed tooling for research workflows, client reporting, and meeting preparation. Write production code, mentor teammates on AI-augmented engineering practices, and adhere to regulatory obligations.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with asset allocation PMs and researchers to take ideas from notebook to production: signals, CMAs, optimization, portfolio construction, rebalancing rules, and attribution.
  • Build and extend the team's research platform: data ingestion, back testing, scenario analysis, portfolio construction, monitoring, and reporting.
  • Own the multi-asset data layer: market data, macro, fundamentals, fund and index data, internal holdings, with quality control the PMs actually trust.
  • Use AI coding agents daily for prototyping, refactoring, testing, review, and documentation. Bring opinions on where they help and where they hurt.
  • Build internal AI-backed tooling for the team where it earns its keep: research workflows, client-reporting drafts, commentary support, meeting prep.
  • Write production code that other quants want to build on.
  • Own reliability, testing, and observability for what you ship.
  • Mentor teammates on effective AI-augmented engineering practice.
  • Carry out other duties as assigned.

Requirements

  • Have built industrial-scale enterprise-quality quantitative/systematic models based on specs provided by PM's.

  • Have monitored operational performance of these models and taken ownership of making sure the models behave properly.
  • Are familiar with the SDLC (eg testing/deployment).
  • Are heavy users of modern AI tools (claude code/codex/opencode/pi/ampcode/factory droid/cursor/cline).
  • Have written extensive documentation about the implementation of a model.
  • Willing to adhere to the provisions of our Investment Advisory Code of Ethics related to personal securities activities and other disclosure and certification requirements, including past political contributions and political activities.
