Job Title: Exotic Derivatives Financial Engineer Wanted
Description:

I'm looking for a Financial Engineer who has built a solid track record of success in the full lifecycle of derivative pricing analytics and keen to explore their experience across multiple asset classes for a small team with a flexible exposure to products in the market. Your role will be to provide on-going expertise in existing and new prototype option pricing methods used across the Trading & Structuring desks.

Strong profiles will be educated to MSc/PhD level within a applied mathematics (or ideally financial engineering) discipline with a strong commercial grounding working on standard and exotic derivative pricing tools. You will be the kind of individual who can think ling a Trader or Structurer and understand the intuitive process of adjusting models around ever evolving market dynamics and be capable of dealing with more abstract or complex volatility based approaches that lead to strategy development.

Implementation in C++, VB etc is less important compared to a firm grasp of financial option pricing methods and you will be tested both on the basic as well as your awareness of inherent weaknesses of standard methodologies.

Due to local coverage of work involved, candidates MUST be fluent in Mandarin with additional language skills (English, Japanese, Cantonese) - No exceptions to this.

This is an excellent opportunity to develop your financial mathematics ability to the next level.

Interested?
