Job Title: Quant Trader to work for Midtown based Hedge Fund
Description:

Opportunity for a Quant Trader with 2-4 yrs experience to earn money on their personal PnL. You should have a high frequency trading strategy, ideally trading US Equity although they are open to diversifying.

You will join a group of 7 systematic traders/Portfolio Managers whose strategies have holding periods in the region of seconds up to 1 day. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in Physics or Applied Mathematics and must have a fully automated trading strategy with returns that they can demonstrate (paper traded is fine but live returns are preferred). Candidates must also demonstrate competency in C++. You will be provided with a robust franework for backtesting your strategies and will have the unique opportunity to earn money based on your personal PnL. You may have developed your own idea at another Hedge Fund and are looking for a better % deal or you may be working as a Quant Researcher as part of a team and be looking for a chance to prove yourself. While the group mainly covers US Equity trading right now, they are open to trading other asset classes as long as they are high frequency.
