  • Exceptional problem-solving skills, with a strong foundation in mathematical, statistical, or optimization fundamentals
  • Strong programming skills, with solid experience in Python
  • Proficiency with numerical computing or machine learning libraries (e.g., NumPy, Pandas, PyTorch, TensorFlow) is a significant advantage
  • Familiarity with optimization techniques, such as gradient descent and linear/convex programming, is highly desirable
  • Knowledge of portfolio financing, funding mechanics, prime brokerage, or risk management frameworks is a plus
  • Excellent cross-functional communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with engineers, researchers, and financial professionals

The estimated base salary range for this position is $150,000 - $200,000, based on job-related skills and experience. This role will also be eligible for discretionary performance-based bonuses and a competitive benefits package.
