About the role
Build and maintain systems that connect quantitative research with production trading, including realistic simulation and backtesting infrastructure that accounts for latency, market microstructure, and real-world constraints. Own feature and signal pipelines, help optimize strategies, and troubleshoot issues across research and execution. Requires 3–7 years of quantitative software development experience, ideally at a trading firm or systematic fund, and strong production Python skills with tools such as pandas or polars. Candidates should have a foundation in probability, statistics, and time series analysis, familiarity with backtesting and simulation, and an understanding of applying machine learning to systematic strategies; low-latency systems experience is a plus.
