One of our prestigious systematic hedge fund clients is looking for an experienced quant to help lead product development of quantitative solutions at the firm. If you would enjoy working across many different business units to envision and build quantitative solutions that are broadly applicable to senior management, PM’s, researchers, etc. this is a unique role that we have not seen at other buy-side clients.

As a quant, you are familiar with the usual day-to-day of the role that involves narrow focus on solving specific problems. This role is quite different, involving engagement with many areas of the firm and the opportunity to impact investment decision makers throughout.

The role requires significant quantitative depth and experience, preferably at a buy-side firm. In addition, you must have outstanding communication skills, big picture thinking, and the ability to shape product direction while establishing buy-in from stakeholders.

Qualifications:

• Masters or PhD in a quantitative field
• 3-8 years of front office experience as a quant researcher, quant analyst or quant developer at a financial firm, preferably on the buy-side
• Impeccable communication skills, both written and oral
• Excellent organizational skills
• Ability to read and understand existing code in C++ / Python / etc. 

This is a top-rated, highly selective hedge fund. Interviews will be challenging, and compensation will be competitive.
