Through hands-on workshops, technical discussions, and direct exposure to our researchers and traders, you'll gain insight into how research is applied at Optiver and how PhD students transition successfully into industry. Attendance and successful completion of this program may be required to receive an internship offer.
Who You Are:
  • Currently enrolled in a PhD program in Statistics, Computer Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, or a related STEM field with outstanding academic performance
  • Expected graduation between December 2027 - June 2029 and available to intern during Summer 2027
  • Open to full-time opportunities upon graduation in 2028 or 2029
  • Solid foundation in mathematics, probability, and statistics
  • Excellent research, analytical, and modeling skills
  • Experience applying machine learning methods to real-world research problems, such as time-series analysis, prediction, forecasting, pattern recognition, optimization, or decision-making
  • Proficiency in any programming language
  • Strong interest in working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
  • Fluent in English with strong written and verbal communication skills
