Working at Wintermute

You are an experienced machine learning engineer or researcher with a strong track record in applied deep learning, ideally in domains involving high-frequency or large-scale time-series data. You will focus on developing alpha signal generation pipelines from data ingestion and feature engineering to model training and deployment, in collaboration with our trading and infrastructure teams.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop ML-based alpha generation models using high-frequency order book and market microstructure data.
  • Design and maintain data pipelines, preprocessing, and feature extraction workflows tailored to streaming tick data.
  • Research and implement advanced deep learning architectures for short-horizon forecasting and signal extraction.
  • Collaborate with quant researchers and developers to integrate models into live trading environments.
  • Optimise inference latency and robustness; ensure models behave safely under live market conditions.
  • Continuously refine model quality through systematic backtesting, live evaluation, and monitoring.

Hard Skills Requirements:

  • Degree in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Applied Mathematics, or similar quantitative discipline.
  • Strong programming skills in Python and familiarity with ML libraries.
  • Proven track record applying ML/DL to real-world problems.
  • Familiarity with time-series modeling, signal extraction, or high-frequency data.
  • Experience in developing ML infrastructure (data pipelines, experiment tracking, versioning).

Nice to have requirements:

  • Experience in finance, trading, or quantitative research (not required).
  • Publications, competition results (e.g., Kaggle, academic ML contests), or open-source contributions.
  • Familiarity with C++, CUDA, or low-latency systems.

Here is why you should join our dynamic team:

  • Opportunity to work at one of the world's leading algorithmic trading firms.
  • Engaging projects offering accelerated responsibilities and ownership compared to traditional finance environments.
  • A vibrant working culture with team meals, festive celebrations, gaming events and company wide team building events.
  • A Wintermute-inspired office in central London, featuring an array of amenities such as table tennis and foosball, personalized desk configurations, a cozy team breakout area with games.
  • Great company culture: informal, non-hierarchical, ambitious, highly professional with a startup vibe, collaborative and entrepreneurial.
  • A performance-based compensation with a significant earning potential alongside standard perks like pension and private health insurance.

Note:

  • Although we are unable to accept fully remote candidates, we support significant flexibility about working from home and working hours.
  • We offer UK work permits and help with relocation.

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.
