Referment is working with a financial-markets technology business whose quantitative software helps major institutions analyse trading activity and market risk. Its products combine multi-asset pricing models, large-scale securities data and production-grade engineering.
This is a senior hands-on quantitative development role with responsibility for designing, building and validating pricing models. You will develop reusable pricing libraries, calculators and risk algorithms across multiple asset classes, while helping less experienced team members strengthen their technical and markets knowledge.
The role calls for someone who can connect mathematical modelling with the realities of trading and turn quantitative research into dependable software.
The Role
- Develop financial pricing libraries, calculators and risk- or pricing-related algorithms.
- Research market dynamics across multiple asset classes and translate the findings into practical models.
- Prototype, test and validate proprietary quantitative models before production use.
- Use a specialist large-scale data language to analyse and produce securities data.
- Build high-quality software that makes quantitative methods usable within production applications.
- Support and coach junior colleagues while remaining closely involved in modelling and development.
- Plan and prioritise quantitative projects to meet agreed delivery dates.
