About the role
Research and develop systematic alpha strategies, contributing to portfolio construction, optimization, and risk decisions across mid-frequency US equities. Partner with the Portfolio Manager to take strategies from idea generation through live deployment, analyze performance and PnL, and build toward greater ownership of risk. Requires 5+ years of alpha-generation experience, a master's or PhD in a highly quantitative discipline, and strong statistical and mathematical foundations. Candidates should have experience developing systematic signals, predictive models, or trading strategies, a strong understanding of portfolio construction and optimization, and advanced Python skills; direct US equities experience is not essential.
