Job Description

Quantitative Strategist -New York-USD$250K+Bonus.

Job Description:

We are currently interviewing candidates to join our Development Team in our office in New York City.

We offer a great collaborative atmosphere in a bright open space. You'll be responsible for small and large projects, some tactical, others strategic, that directly impact our business.

You will have the opportunity to contribute value across our entire stack: cloud computing, distributed computing, data management, advanced financial analytics, sophisticated data visualization and web applications. And you will have the opportunity to receive training on our stack, work with talented team members and provide input on our product roadmap.

About You:

Whether you just graduated, or have a few years of experience,

Whether you are a developer by training or just happen to use programming in another field, you have always been more curious of how software works than your peers.

Legacy and modern programming languages, operating systems, distributed systems, open source frameworks, how concepts and implementations compare and contrast.

And you have been satisfying this curiosity, accumulating over time exceptional technical breadth and depth. You don't want to stop. You want to be part of a team of like-minded learners and doers to build something big and interesting that is changing the way that Wall Street looks at complex financial instruments.

Qualification:

This position has extremely strong technical skills requirements including:

Solid knowledge of a systems-level language, a scripting Language, an application development language, and data languages (e.g. sql, regular expressions)
High-level design skills (e.g. distributed systems, scalable servers, and concurrent software)
Familiarity with standard software tools including debuggers and version control
Experience applying contemporary modeling techniques to financial markets
An entrepreneurial spirit is a requirement, and MS or PhD in a technical field (computer science, physics, math, and engineering) is a plus.
A few years of relevant experience is desirable, but eager and hard-working recent graduates are encouraged to apply.
