Quant Engineer Jobs in Hoboken, NJ (NOW HIRING)

Two Sigma is a financial sciences company, combining data analysis, invention, and rigorous inquiry to help solve the toughest challenges in investment management, insurance technology, securities, private equity, and venture capital.

Our team of scientists, technologists, and academics looks beyond the traditional to develop creative solutions to some of the world's most complex economic problems.

• Take on primary responsibility for monetization research in a team that organizes work into three groups: (a) features, (b) predictive modeling and (c) monetization, and focuses especially on macro markets as above
• Work on design and iterative improvement of the decision logic that the actions of our monetization engine come out of - for example through utility function design or rules‑based logic and calibration of the decision logic parameters with historical simulations and eventually post‑trade data
• Reflect the limitations of TS infrastructure in our monetization design to produce estimates that are unbiased vs. our live realization. Work with partners in Engineering and other organizations to specify improvements that produce the most benefit.
• Reflect monetization reality in fit targets / responses being used for predictive research. Initiate research on liquidity events / triggers on which our decision logic fires.
• Our team is tightly knit and open, and we constantly work in adjacent areas, so if there is interest, work into feature creation and predictive modeling, especially with a monetization eye, is also always welcome.

• Have worked on monetization of signals that range in the horizon over which they have predictive power from a few minutes to about a day
• Have a strong understanding of the microstructure of the major futures exchanges, including CME, ICE and Eurex; tested through application to create features for prediction and for conditioning trading
• Can research and implement decision logic in various quantitative frameworks, ranging from utility function optimization to rules‑based trading
• Have deployed latency‑sensitive strategies in futures and other macro markets including FX, Treasuries, macro ETFs, etc., possibly including crypto assets
• We have a preference for candidates who have done numerate graduate work, for example in operations research, probability and statistics, signal processing, computer science, machine learning, or other numerate engineering disciplines and hard sciences.
