About the firm

A privately-owned, founder-led quant trading firm with 10+ years in global electronic markets. It takes no outside investors, runs fully automated strategies, and has one of the best revenue-per-head ratios in systematic trading. It is now building out in London.

The role

Own research end to end, from idea to live strategy. You will:

• Build predictive models and alpha signals on large-scale market data, using neural networks and tree-based methods
• Take your work through backtesting, productionisation and live monitoring
• Write production-quality code in a small, low-ego team with high autonomy

Who we want to hear from

Senior research or applied scientists from tech, AI or research labs who:

• Have a PhD or equivalent depth in ML, statistics, physics, maths, CS or engineering
• Have shipped models into production on noisy, large-scale data
• Write strong Python, and are comfortable in C++ or willing to learn it
• Want their work to move the P&L directly

No finance background is needed.

Why join

• Small team, high impact, with research visible and rewarded
• Researchers who ship, with no wall between “quants” and “devs”
• Highly competitive compensation with strong upside
• Very low team turnover
