Job description

We are working with a global systematic investment firm that is expanding its quantitative research team in Mumbai and looking to hire experienced Quant Researchers.

The role offers broader ownership than a traditional alpha research position, with researchers involved across the lifecycle of a strategy — from research and signal development through implementation and monitoring live performance.

The opportunity offers:

• Exposure to global markets, asset classes and multiple time horizons
• Visibility into how research translates into live P&L
• Access to significant capital and a global trading platform
• Broad scope across datasets, signals and systematic strategies
• Close interaction across research, technology and trading
• Opportunity to develop towards greater strategy and PM-style ownership

We are particularly interested in candidates from systematic funds, hedge funds, proprietary trading firms and strong sell-side systematic research teams.

Researchers with experience in machine learning, statistical modelling, alternative datasets or ML-driven trading strategies are also highly relevant.

This would suit someone looking for greater ownership of their research, broader global market exposure and the ability to take ideas further into live implementation.
