Summer 2027 Quant Research Internship Program
We are looking for academically strong and motivated undergraduate students to participate in our Summer 2027 Quant Research Internship program. You will be working with large financial datasets to uncover valuable insights feeding into our end-to-end machine learning pipeline for equities.
You will be joining a small but long-established team with offices in New York and London for a 10-week program focused on a structured data-driven research project, delivering a finished product with measurable impact within that time frame.
While you work on your project, you will be expected to show broader interest in the work of your co-participants in the program, and collaborate in research discussions.
