Resumo da oferta

Fasanara Capital in London is launching two off-cycle internship positions for candidates with outstanding quantitative reasoning and strong software engineering ability. Interns are integrated directly into the desk, paired with a trader or researcher, and own a live research question tied to a real strategy from hypothesis through backtesting to production.

You will analyse live and historical data, design and backtest signals under realistic constraints, work on cross-exchange arbitrage,

Qualificações

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a highly quantitative discipline — mathematics, physics, computer science, engineering, statistics, or a related field.
• Demonstrated excellence in programming, with proficiency in Python; working knowledge of SQL is an advantage.
• Clear evidence of quantitative depth: competition mathematics, a strong academic record, research experience, or substantive independent projects.
• Sound judgement under ambiguity, and the discipline to revise a position quickly when the data warrants it.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present a technical argument clearly to a non-specialist audience.

Responsabilidades

• Analyse live and historical market data — order books, funding rates, basis, venue fee schedules — to identify and validate a specific trading edge or structural inefficiency.
• Design and backtest models or signals under realistic constraints, including execution cost, latency, fee tier, and capital usage.
• Work alongside a quantitative trader on an active cross-exchange arbitrage or basis strategy, from initial hypothesis through, where warranted, live sizing.
• Contribute production-quality tooling to the desk’s research and monitoring infrastructure.
• Present findings to the team in writing and in person, and defend the methodology and conclusions under scrutiny.
