Headhunter across Quant Engineering & Algorithmic Trading

Title: Quantitative Developer

Location: New York

Type: Full-time, Front-Office QD

Only a handful of firms globally offer this kind of role, where front-office technologists and researchers build the core analytics, execution systems, and risk engines that underpin multi-billion-dollar equity portfolios.

This isn’t another “finance + tech” role it’s a chance to sit at the beating heart of one of the world’s most successful hedge funds.

The Role

• Own the design, work with researchers, and engineer the tools for portfolio construction, execution, and risk.
• Collaborate directly with PMs, traders, and quants, your work goes live into production, not a shelf.
• Build scalable platforms and curated datasets that drive trading performance across global markets.
• Contribute to signal research, optimisation, and execution strategies that shape the firm’s competitive edge.

Why You Should Care

• Direct PnL Impact: Your models and systems are embedded into billion-dollar strategies. Every line of code counts.
• Elite Peer Group: Work alongside some of the sharpest minds in quant finance, engineers and quants from FAANG, DeepMind, OpenAI, and the top PhDs globally.
• Scarcity: Roles on this team don’t open often expansion is limited, and only a handful of seats exist.
• Trajectory: Alumni from this group have gone on to become Heads of Research & Engineering across the industry within just a few years.

What We’re Looking For

• Background in CS, Math, Stats, or related highly quantitative fields.
• Strong coding skills in Python and comfort working with large datasets.
• Intellectual curiosity + commercial instinct: you thrive on applying research and engineering to solve problems.
• Early-to-mid career engineers with research exposure, who want impact beyond Big Tech or academia.

Tight window: The team is hiring now but will close applications quickly. These roles rarely open, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.
