The role:

We are seeking a Senior Quantitative Researcher to join a systematic equities investment team.

The successful candidate will contribute across the full investment research lifecycle, including data acquisition, alpha signal research, portfolio construction, backtesting, production implementation, and ongoing strategy monitoring.

Job Description

  • Research and implement cross-sectional equity signals using traditional financial data, alternative datasets, and advanced statistical or machine learning techniques.
  • Design, test, and improve idiosyncratic, factor-neutral and long/short systematic strategies.
  • Evaluate alpha signals and strategies through rigorous backtesting, performance attribution, robustness analysis, and out-of-sample testing.
  • Apply machine learning methods such as tree-based models, graphical models, NLP, explainable AI, dimensionality reduction, and network-based approaches to investment research.
  • Collaborate with portfolio managers, researchers, data engineers, and technology teams to translate research ideas into production-ready investment strategies.
  • Contribute to the development of internal research tools, analytics platforms, and model evaluation frameworks.
  • Stay current with academic and industry developments in quantitative finance, machine learning, alternative data, and systematic investing.

Required Qualifications

  • Advanced degree (Masters or Ph.D.) in a quantitative discipline such as mathematics, statistics, computer science, engineering, physics, economics, financial engineering.
  • 8+ years experience in quantitative research, systematic equities, asset management, hedge funds, proprietary trading, or a related investment environment
  • Strong understanding of equity markets, factor investing, alpha research, portfolio construction, and risk management
  • Strong programming skills, preferably in Python, with experience working with large financial datasets and research infrastructure.
  • Solid knowledge of statistics, econometrics, machine learning, optimization, and time-series or cross-sectional modelling.
  • Ability to work independently across the full research lifecycle, from idea generation to live deployment.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex quantitative concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Academic teaching, publishing, or thought leadership in machine learning, quantitative finance, or systematic investing is a plus.

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.
