Position: Equity Volatility Quant Researcher Intern (Summer 2027)
Location: Miami, FL
Firm Overview:

Founded in 2005 as an options market maker, we have organically grown into a global investment firm specializing in Fundamental Equities, Quant, and Volatility strategies.
At Walleye, we continuously innovate by focusing on three core principles: approach, platform, and people. Our approach is to allocate risk capital where we believe there is not only a compelling opportunity, but also a clear ability to define our tangible edge. We seek to leverage the mathematical benefits of diversification while utilizing sophisticated infrastructure, technology, and our balance sheet to do so in a structurally advantageous way.

With a strong foundation, our group operates at the frontier of innovation - continually evolving our strategies and infrastructure as the options landscape grows in scale, complexity, and opportunity.
This high-impact internship is designed for deeply analytical, technically adept students with a strong intellectual curiosity about options markets.

The internship is 10 weeks in length and will take place in Miami from June to August 2027.
Responsibilities:
  • Build a strong foundation in options markets through both an academic and a practitioner's lens.
  • Keep up to date on major macro developments and market-moving headlines, with a focus on understanding their implications for trading decisions and portfolio risk.
  • Collaborate with seasoned portfolio managers and quantitative researchers specializing in single-stock and index volatility strategies.
  • Perform various quantitative research tasks and projects using large-scale volatility datasets.
  • Enhance research infrastructure and tools for trading and risk management, with an emphasis on leveraging AI.

We seek individuals who:
  • Are pursuing an undergraduate or non-MBA advanced degree in a quantitative field, with an expected graduation date between December 2027 and June 2028.
  • Possess strong programming skills-particularly in Python -and hold experience working with large datasets, APIs, or databases.
  • Demonstrate rigorous analytical thinking with a strong knowledge of probability & statistics (time-series analysis, machine learning, optimization).
  • Are self-starters who enjoy digging into complex, open-ended problems and can work both independently and collaboratively with a team.
  • Exhibit a genuine interest in financial markets, risk taking, and using technology in dynamic, data-rich environments.
  • Showcase creativity and enthusiasm for leveraging AI tools to enhance productivity and improve processes and workflows.
  • Thrive in a collaborative culture that values intellectual humility, creativity, and continuous learning.

Pay Range:
The expected pay for this position is $50,000 for 10 weeks. Interns will also receive a $10,000 housing stipend and transportation to and from Miami (domestic travel only).
