Job Title
This technology-driven hedge fund runs systematic and research-led strategies across global markets. They seek a Quantitative Developer to work directly alongside portfolio managers and researchers to build and support the systems that take trading strategies from research into live production. You'll own problems end-to-end: from a research idea, through building the production pipeline, to supporting it once it's live and trading real risk.
Responsibilities
- Design, build and maintain reliable trading systems and production pipelines, providing an efficient path from research to live trading.
- Maintain and improve the production and research codebase supporting one or more live trading strategies, including debugging, monitoring and resolving issues on live systems.
- Build tooling and dashboards that give clear visibility of live risk, positions, signals and system health.
- Partner directly with portfolio managers and researchers to translate research ideas into robust, production-quality code, and help develop frameworks for data validation and monitoring.
- Contribute to a shared technology platform - reusable libraries, services and engineering frameworks used across multiple strategies or asset classes.
- Improve engineering standards through better testing, documentation, code structure, monitoring and automation, including the use of modern AI-assisted or agentic development tools to improve productivity and code quality.
- Take genuine ownership of a technical or business domain, working directly with the stakeholders you support rather than through layers of process.
