Position Type: Full-Time
We’re excited to team up with a top-tier multi-strategy hedge fund on the lookout for talented portfolio managers and quantitative traders ready to bring their unique strategies to an institutional setting. If you’re an experienced trader seeking not just funding but also freedom to operate, this could be your ideal next step.
About the Role
This is a fantastic opportunity to harness considerable firm capital, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and industry-leading resources while retaining full control of your trading strategies. We’re searching for candidates who have consistently delivered alpha across various asset classes such as equities, futures, fixed income, FX, and commodities. Whether your approach leans systematic, discretionary, or a bit of both, if you have scalable and repeatable trading strategies, we want to hear from you!
What You’ll Be Doing
- Capitalize and Innovate: Independently deploy and manage your capital while utilizing the firm’s top-notch infrastructure.
- Strategy Development: Fine-tune your current strategies with unparalleled access to liquidity, comprehensive data, and execution capabilities.
- Optimize Execution: Use cutting-edge technology and proprietary analytics to enhance trade execution and manage risk effectively.

- You boast a consistent record of risk-adjusted returns backed by a solid investment process.
- Your understanding of portfolio construction, execution, and risk management is top-notch.
- You’re experienced in discretionary, systematic, or hybrid trading strategies.
- While it’s a plus if you can transfer assets under management, it’s certainly not required.
For Quantitative Traders:
- Your track record speaks for itself, with proven PnL results in building and executing systematic or algorithmic trading strategies.
- You come equipped with a strong quantitative background, including knowledge of statistical modeling, machine learning, or alpha signal research.
- You’re proficient in programming languages like Python, C++, or R, crucial for strategy development.
- You can optimize and scale trading strategies using institutional-grade infrastructure.
Why Choose Us?
- Access to Significant Capital: Tap into institutional funding to grow and refine your trading strategies.
- Competitive Compensation: Enjoy a transparent, performance-driven payout structure that rewards your success.
- Cutting-Edge Infrastructure: Make the most of advanced data analytics, low-latency execution, and proprietary risk management tools.
- Independence with Institutional Backing: Maintain full control over your trading while benefiting from our robust hedge fund platform.
- Collaborative Culture: Engage with fellow elite portfolio managers, quantitative researchers, and talented engineers who are as passionate about trading as you are.
