Quant DeveloperClient

Overview
We’re partnering with an ambitious, early‑stage quantitative investment firm that’s quietly assembling a world‑class engineering and research team.

They’re now looking to add a Quant Developer who thrives in a fast‑moving start‑up environment and wants real ownership over mission‑critical trading infrastructure.

You will contribute broadly as a hands‑on engineer—stepping in across software and quant‑development workloads as needed in a demanding startup setting.
Key responsibilities
Build, maintain, and evolve production‑grade trading systems that manage and execute orders across multiple MFT strategies and exchanges in equities, crypto, and futures.
Optimize performance, reliability, and latency across the execution stack, with a strong focus on robustness in live trading environments.
Partner closely with quant and machine learning researchers to continuously refine data pipelines, signals, and execution logic.

Advanced Python skills; experience with PyTorch, TensorFlow, NumPy, pandas, scikit‑learn.
A pragmatic, problem‑solving mindset—someone who enjoys shipping, iterating, and improving real systems.
The flexibility and ownership mentality required to succeed at an early‑stage fund.
Nice to Have
C++ or other low‑level language experience
Distributed computing/large‑scale data pipelines
Prior systematic/prop trading or quant fund experience
Equities mid‑frequency
What’s on Offer
Start‑up culture with genuine roadmap to $1billion AUM.
Equity on offer alongside excellent base plus bonus.
Machine learning is core to the investment process, not an overlay.
Exposure to multiple asset classes within a unified research framework.
Opportunity to influence model design, data architecture and research standards.
