About the Team & the Opportunity:

Edelweiss Global Markets is a multi-strategy trading business within the Edelweiss Group, operating across five geographies and four asset classes. We combine proprietary data, research-driven thinking, disciplined risk management, and low-latency execution to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns. Our culture emphasizes productive paranoia, deep respect for risk, openness, passion ("Junoon") for excellence, and a strong one-team ethos.

We are looking to onboard Portfolio Managers to own, scale, and optimize systematic books end-to-end —spanning research, portfolio construction, live trading, and risk.

This is a high-autonomy role with clear accountability, strong infrastructure, and accelerated growth.

What You Will Do:

• Create, manage, and trade a multi-million-dollar systematic portfolio (>$10mn to start), deploying a bouquet of strategies across styles, frequencies, asset classes, and geographies.




• Exercise true end-to-end ownership: alpha research, strategy engineering, portfolio allocation, execution oversight, and risk controls.




• Lead a team of researchers/analysts; set research agendas, raise the engineering bar, and scale winning ideas.




• Reorient exposures proactively as market regimes change; improve existing models while incubating new ones.




• Uphold a rigorous risk culture—deploy capital judiciously to maximize risk-adjusted returns and protect against tail events.

What You Need to Succeed:

• A strong academic foundation in mathematics, computer science, statistics, or related fields.




• At least five years of quantitative research with a deployable bouquet of strategies suitable for portfolio construction.




• Two or more years of independently managing a sizeable live trading book across styles and frequencies at a fund/ prop desk or equivalent.




• A stable live track record with strong risk-adjusted performance; hands-on programming in R/Python/Java; macro understanding of multi-asset market dynamics.




• Clear communication, team leadership, curiosity, and out-of-the-box thinking.

Why Join Edelweiss Global Markets:

• Own and scale a systematic book on a platform with proprietary data, advanced analytics, and low-latency execution.




• High autonomy with strong scaffolding: mentorship, robust technology, and a risk framework that treats risk as a precious resource.




• A values-driven environment—openness, passion, all for one, and thought leadership—with real career acceleration and comprehensive benefits.
