A small team. Lots of projects. Plenty of autonomy.
Do you want to work at a Hedge Fund and have direct contact with researchers and economists? Here they'll be your main colleagues and you'll collaborate to build the best models into production, seeing the immediate impact of your work that directly impacts your overall total compensation.
Part of your work will be to help transform research models into scalable, robust applications. The other aspects will be to work closely with the wider team - 10 in total at present - to improve the modelling platform and explore innovative ways to present data. This will help users, your teammates, test ideas quickly and effectively. You’ll also be responsible for sourcing and managing data from various systems in a clean, scalable way.
There are all kinds of projects going on in the team concurrently, which will make this a tough environment with high expectations, but the reward will be the direct impact to your bonus. You'll be building all models in Python.
In terms of experience, you're going to ideally be coming from another front office environment, ideally at a Hedge Fund but any kind of front office experience within finance would be absolutely fine. You'll be joining just one other developer in this team so you'll need to have in-depth knowledge of Python.
This is a circa £20bn AUM Hedge Fund where you'll get plenty of autonomy in a close-knit team. Starting salary has no set budget - we'd love to give you a specific figure, but the aim is to get the best person for the job - and bonuses will be based on your performance. This will be explained during and at the end of your process.
