The role:

• Develop and research new alpha ideas across equities and futures
• Build, test and implement systematic strategies across intraday and mid-frequency horizons
• Take ownership of portfolio construction, risk and position sizing
• Monitor live strategies and look for ways to improve performance
• Work closely with researchers, developers and traders to take ideas from research into production
• Help identify new opportunities and contribute to the continued growth of the platform

What we’re looking for:

• Strong experience in systematic trading, ideally across equities and/or futures
• A track record developing or managing intraday or mid-frequency strategies
• Strong understanding of alpha generation, portfolio construction and risk
• Good quantitative and statistical skills
• Strong Python skills and experience working with large datasets
• Someone who is genuinely research-driven and enjoys taking ownership of ideas from start to finish

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants more ownership and a bigger say in the strategies they’re working on, while still having the support of a strong systematic team around them.
