In this role, you will manage a team of researchers focused on designing, implementing, and trading systematic ETF-based strategies within Trexquant’s core quantitative framework. Your leadership will play a critical role in scaling ETF strategies into a meaningful asset class for the firm.

Responsibilities

  • Oversee the design, backtesting, and implementation of systematic ETF trading strategies.
  • Collaborate with the development team to enhance the performance, robustness, and scalability of ETF simulation and trading infrastructure.
  • Partner with execution and financing teams to optimize trade execution and capital efficiency.
  • Work with the risk team to establish monitoring frameworks, controls, and capital allocation processes specific to ETF exposures.
  • Present ETF research initiatives and progress to senior management, ensuring alignment with firm-wide trading and investment strategies.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience researching and trading quantitative ETF-based strategies.
  • Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related STEM field.
  • Proven leadership experience managing quantitative research teams.
  • Strong quantitative, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proficiency in Python; familiarity with large-scale data analysis and backtesting frameworks a plus.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary with performance-based bonus.
  • Collaborative, casual, and friendly work environment.
  • PPO health, dental, and vision insurance fully covered for you and your dependents.
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits.
  • Weekly company-provided meals.

Applications are now open for our NYC office, opening in September 2026.

The base salary range is $130,000 to $200,000, depending on candidates’ educational and professional background. Base salary is only one part of Trexquant’s total compensation, which may include a discretionary and performance based bonus.
