What You’ll Do:

📍We are seeking research scientists with a demonstrated ability to apply machine learning to achieve state-of-the-art capabilities in complex and challenging domains. The ideal person for this role will be capable of leading an open-ended research project from concept to production: finding compelling problems well suited to current and projected LLM capabilities, collaborating extensively with trading teams to understand requirements and constraints, and continuously improving model design, tools, and infrastructure. Potential projects may target any area of the quantitative research process with the potential for firmwide application. We believe that successful research efforts require a fluid mix of skills including ML expertise, engineering pragmatism, and market intuition, and welcome all candidates who can demonstrate brilliance in one area, competence in a second, and enthusiasm for the third.

Skills You’ll Need:

📍5+ year track record of creating ML systems with real metrics & impact in industry and/or academia 📍Strong general ML background with some exposure to language modeling architectures (e.g. transformers, SSMs) 📍Solid development skills in Python and/or C++ 📍Familiarity with ML libraries/frameworks such as PyTorch (preferred), TensorFlow, and/or JAX 📍Intellectual curiosity, versatility, and originality combined with a pragmatic outlook 📍Ability to reason through quantitative problems and communicate effectively with trading researchers 📍Reliable and predictable availability
