AI Software Engineer | Quantitative Hedge Fund | up to £400k TC
A leading global investment manager with $60bn+ AUM, the firm runs a range of quantitative, systematic and fundamental strategies across global markets. Technology and data are central to the business, with a strong culture of innovation and a focus on building proprietary systems.
You most likely already work in a fund, but one where engineering across Trading, Finance and Operations is treated as separate functions. Here, those worlds are brought together, giving engineers the opportunity to work directly on high-impact systems that sit across the investment and operational side of the business.
