Quantitative Systematic Trader- Experienced Hire

vor 2 Wochen


Sydney, Österreich ISTITUTO MARANGONI Vollzeit
Overview

We’re looking for quant-minded strategists who value the power of interdisciplinary knowledge and cooperative thinking. Our Quantitative Systematic Traders combine the skills of quantitative research with the knowledge of trading to develop new electronic strategies and monitor real-time performance. As a true hybrid of our core disciplines, Quantitative Systematic Traders are constantly communicating and connecting ideas between trading, technology, and quantitative research.

What you’ll do

The general life cycle of a quant project begins with an idea:

  • This idea can come from anyone: you, the mentor who sits beside you, or someone you meet in the cafeteria.
  • As a Quantitative Systematic Trader, you will investigate that idea by immersing yourself in market data, leveraging tools in mathematics, statistics, and programming.
  • Through your research, you may discover a new pattern that can transform into a trading signal.
  • To assess the strength of that trading signal, you will run it through our back testing environment and carefully analyse its performance.
  • If that signal produces profitable results, you will work side-by-side with technologists and put it into production.
  • Once that signal is embedded in our electronic trading strategies, you will actively monitor its real-time performance in the financial markets.
  • As your trading strategy evolves, you will discuss with other researchers, strategists, and traders to collect feedback and brainstorm new ideas.
  • Some of those ideas will turn into new quant projects, and the life cycle starts all over again.
