Collaborating closely with portfolio managers, quantitative researchers, and technologists

Qualifications

PhD student in Econometrics or Economics with expected completion in 2026 or 2027
Strong foundation in statistics and probability theory
Strong programming skills in Python
Experience handling large datasets
A strong interest in financial markets and systematic trading

Personal Attributes

Highly analytical, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
Enjoys tackling complex problems
Collaborative and able to work effectively with researchers, technologists, and traders

Contributed tangible research that informs or enhances existing trading strategies or research directions
Demonstrated the ability to translate complex mathematical or economic ideas into robust well-tested code
Gained hands-on experience working with large-scale financial data and research infrastructure
