• Identifying where models break down and improving robustness and performance
• Collaborating closely with traders to translate quantitative insights into practical decisions
• Contributing to the continuous development of our trading systems and infrastructure

AI-assisted development is a natural part of our workflow, helping us explore ideas, build tools, and iterate efficiently. We value people who use these tools thoughtfully alongside strong technical skills and market understanding.

We Are Looking for Someone Who

• Has a strong quantitative background (e.g. Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Economics, Computer Science, or similar)
• Is proficient in Python and SQL; experience with PostgreSQL is a plus.
• Has practical experience with modelling, forecasting, backtesting, and developing data-driven trading strategies.
• Understands the difference between strong backtests and robust live trading performance
• Is comfortable working with messy, high-volume, time-dependent data
• Is curious about markets and motivated by performance and continuous improvement
• Takes ownership and can work independently in a fast-paced environment
• Communicates clearly and collaborates well with both traders and technical colleagues

What We Offer

• A role with direct impact on trading performance, strategy development, and live P& L
• Close proximity to live markets and real-time decision-making
• A collaborative environment with traders, analysts, and quantitative colleagues
• A high degree of ownership and responsibility from day one
• Short path from idea to live trading, with fast feedback loops and continuous iteration
