Job description

Company Description

Domeyard, LP is a quantitative hedge fund startup based in Boston, Massachusetts. We focus on developing low latency technologies to achieve extremely consistent, long-term capital growth enabling us to save millions of dollars for market investors each year. Our trading strategies are derived from the latest advances in high-performance computing and data analysis, making us one of the fastest market participants in the world. Domeyard operates around the clock, trading a diverse range of asset classes, including equities, futures, fixed income instruments, energy products and commodities. Innovation is our main differentiator: on any given day, we process more order messages than Google searches and Twitter messages combined. Our continuous pursuit of improvement to our technology enables us to uncover opportunities that are grossly inaccessible to mainstream fund managers and their investment vehicles. For its notable role in the industry, Domeyard is also the protagonist of Harvard Business School's first case study about high frequency trading.
