Quantitative Research Scientist – Systematic Investing

I’m working with one of the world’s largest and most sophisticated institutional investors to hire exceptional Quantitative Researchers and Research Scientists into a growing systematic investment research platform.

Their philosophy is different.

Rather than building teams of generalist researchers expected to do everything, the platform brings together specialists across different areas of quantitative research, combining their expertise to discover, test and develop investment strategies.

We’re interested in exceptional researchers specialising in areas including:

• Alpha & Feature Research – discovering predictive signals across traditional and alternative datasets
• Machine Learning & AI – ML, NLP, deep learning and statistical learning applied to investment problems
• Systematic Strategy Research – developing and testing strategies across global markets and asset classes
• Portfolio Construction & Optimisation – translating signals into robust, investable portfolios
• Research Validation – rigorous backtesting, out-of-sample testing, robustness analysis and identifying genuine versus spurious alpha
• Alternative Data – extracting investment information from large, complex and unconventional datasets
• Advanced Quantitative Methods – statistics, econometrics, time-series analysis, mathematical modelling and numerical methods
