Quantitative Research Engineer - Python OR C++

Hedge Fund

Quant Research Python Engineer | NYC Hedge Fund

Work directly with researchers and portfolio managers building the tools and models that drive live trading decisions. You'll own the Python infrastructure behind research workflows, from data pipelines to strategy backtesting to production handoff.

This isn't a support role. You're embedded with the people making investment calls, and what you build gets used immediately.

What you bring:

  • Strong Python skills, ideally in a quant or research-heavy environment
  • 4+ years of professional experience (internships don't count toward this)
  • Real interest in markets, not just the tech stack
  • Comfort working close to researchers, not behind a ticket queue

If you want ownership over research infrastructure at a fund where your code touches real trading decisions, let's talk.
