Job description

Our Machine Learning Internship is designed for curious, ambitious researchers who want to apply machine learning to complex, real-world problems. Over 10-12 weeks, you'll work alongside experienced researchers and mentors to develop models, analyze large-scale datasets, and contribute to research that informs IMC's trading strategies across global equities, futures, and options markets. You'll gain hands-on experience designing experiments, evaluating novel approaches, and tackling challenging problems in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where your work can have real-world impact.

Throughout the program, you'll deepen your understanding of quantitative trading through a combination of classroom and on desk training, while benefiting from professional development and networking opportunities. We offer a highly competitive compensation package, including travel and accommodation. High-performing interns may be considered for a full-time Graduate Researcher position upon graduation.

  • Conduct hands-on research to design, develop, and apply original machine learning algorithms, with the support to explore and innovate.
  • Analyze large-scale datasets, develop predictive models, and evaluate novel approaches to complex market problems
  • Develop your research skills through hands-on project work, mentorship, and regular feedback from experienced researchers
  • Enhance your understanding of quantitative trading through classroom-based instruction in options theory, market making, and related topics

YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Pursuing a PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, or a related quantitative field and graduating between September 2027 - July 2028
  • Strong foundations in machine learning, probability, and statistics, with experience applying advanced ML techniques to solve challenging research or real-world problems
  • Demonstrated hands-on research experience in deep learning fundamentals such as neural network architectures, sequence modeling, training dynamics, or optimization
  • Proficiency in Python and modern machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, Tensorflow, and/or JAX
  • Demonstrated research excellence through publications, preprints, research internships, or significant research projects; publications at venues such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, or equivalent conferences are highly preferred
  • Must be able to start internship in-person on June 7, 2027
