About The Role

We're looking for intellectually curious, driven students at both the undergraduate and graduate level to join one of our investment teams as a Quantitative Research Intern.

This is a hands-on research role where you'll be working directly alongside experienced researchers and engineers, digging into real data, asking meaningful questions, and contributing to work that has a tangible impact on how we invest. Whether you're drawn to statistical modeling, machine learning, or the challenge of finding signal in noisy financial data, this internship is a chance to apply and sharpen your skills in a rigorous, collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Clean, validate, and analyze diverse datasets to provide a reliable foundation for global equities alpha research
  • Develop alpha factors with economic insights and statistical significance from multi-dimensional data
  • Design rigorous backtesting frameworks for performance evaluation and robustness testing
  • Assist in designing, testing, and evaluating quantitative models and strategies
  • Communicate research findings clearly to team members

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. from a top-tier university in a quantitative field (Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Statistics, Finance, Economics, or related)
  • Strong programming skills in Python (required); experience with SQL, databases, and Linux environments
  • Experience or coursework in quantitative research, data analysis, statistical modeling, or machine learning
  • Comfortable working with large datasets and applying statistical or machine learning techniques to financial data
  • Strong analytical thinking, creativity, and attention to detail
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Passion for quantitative finance with a high sense of ownership, curiosity, and a growth mindset

The expected salary range for this role is $120,000–$192,000, prorated based on the duration of the internship. Actual compensation will be determined based on a variety of factors, including the candidate’s skills, qualifications, education, and experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
