Algorithm Developers at HRT focus on the research and implementation of automated trading strategies. As an intern, you will have the opportunity to rotate between our high- and mid-frequency trading teams, as well as our machine learning teams. In close collaboration with full-time mentors, you will apply sophisticated quantitative modeling techniques to understand and predict market behavior and write software to improve our trading strategies.

Ideal candidates are quantitatively-driven and practically-minded programmers, scientists, and mathematicians who are excited to solve the most challenging problems in our field.

  • Leverage our proprietary infrastructure (Python/C++) in conjunction with third-party tools to conduct quantitative research and data analysis
  • Use machine learning and time series techniques to derive novel insights on market behavior from large and complex datasets
  • Work on impactful projects in close collaboration with experienced researchers, traders, and developers
  • Utilize our world-class compute cluster to run simulations and crunch data
  • Build predictive models for financial markets using a combination of market and non-market data
  • Attend and participate in Tech Talks that provide an overview of markets and HRT's trading philosophy
  • Enjoy a curriculum of speakers, trading games, mentorships, and social events throughout the summer

Qualifications

  • You are a full-time undergraduate or master's student in a quantitative discipline (math, physics, computer science, statistics, or a related program)
  • Experience programming in Python is a must; C++ is desired for those interested in low-latency trading
  • Experience with statistical analysis, numerical programming, or machine learning in Python, Pandas/Numpy, R, and/or MATLAB
  • A passion for applying quantitative models and technology toward solving real-world problems
  • Strong communication skills
