Job description

Quantitative Researcher – High Frequency Trading

Are you a self-proclaimed 'numbers person' with a love for high frequency trading, and staring at screens for hours on end? Do you enjoy the thrill of fast-paced, high-frequency trading? Then we've got the job for you!

We're looking for a Quantitative Researcher to join our team and help us generate profits through complex financial modeling and lightning-fast algorithmic trading. You'll spend your days analyzing vast amounts of data, poring over charts and graphs, and occasionally taking breaks to go outside and squint at the sun.

If you're the type of person who gets excited about 'tick data' and can recite the entire formula for calculating a 'moving average,' then we want to hear from you.

Bonus points if you know how to 'cross-validate' like a pro and have a secret love for 'ARIMA models.'

Qualifications:

• A strong background in mathematics, statistics, or a related field
• Proficiency in Python, with experience using libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, and Scikit-Learn
• Familiarity with high-frequency trading strategies and market microstructure
• The ability to stare at screens for extended periods of time without going blind
• A passion for solving complex problems and generating profits through clever trading strategies
• A willingness to occasionally leave the office and breathe fresh air (optional)

We offer competitive compensation packages, comprehensive benefits, and a company culture that values individuality
