About the Role

The Jacksonville, FL position owns a falsifiable research idea from point-in-time data construction through out-of-sample evaluation. Its working schedule covers Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.

Jacksonville Operating Focus

The Jacksonville opening emphasizes early issue detection, complete case records, and dependable follow-through. Eastern Time coverage starts with a complete readiness check before U.S. markets open. The opening owns early detection of missing data, abnormal behavior, and incomplete prior-day actions. When a case remains open after the close, the record must include impact, containment, evidence, and the next responsible person. For this role, that means direct ownership of equity-signal validation, sector diagnostics, and regime review during Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage.

First Review Cycle

The initial Jacksonville, FL review combines Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage with a controlled examination of equity-signal validation, sector diagnostics, and regime review. Each material observation needs a source, a time, and a defined owner. One required check is: Present both favorable and unfavorable results to the investment team. The next required check is: Form hypotheses and build clean point-in-time equity datasets. The Jacksonville opening emphasizes early issue detection, complete case records, and dependable follow-through. You will identify any assumption that remains untested after both checks. The cycle ends with a short decision record, its limit, the next check, and each unresolved question. Another specialist must be able to trace the work through a falsifiable research idea from point-in-time data construction through out-of-sample evaluation.

Responsibilities

• Form hypotheses and build clean point-in-time equity datasets
• Test signal stability, turnover, capacity, and transaction-cost sensitivity
• Run walk-forward and out-of-sample evaluation
