About the role
We are hiring a talented Next Gen Quant Researcher to join our newly established Boston team. This is a hands-on research role focused on the equity markets, specifically stock selection and alpha generation-not fixed income or portfolio allocation. You'll apply machine learning and natural language processing to develop and deploy models that enhance our systematic investment strategies. You'll work closely with our teams in Rotterdam and London and may occasionally travel to these offices to collaborate in person. You will report to the Deputy Head of Next-Gen Research. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a globally connected research effort while shaping the future of quant equity investing.
Responsibilities
- Research, prototype, and deploy ML/NLP-driven models for alpha generation and portfolio construction in equity markets.
- Translate external innovations into actionable internal strategies.
- Collaborate with global colleagues to ensure alignment and knowledge sharing.
- Contribute to a culture of experimentation, rigor, and continuous improvement.
Requirements
- Relevant experience in quantitative research within a hedge fund, asset manager, or quant-focused environment, ideally early in your career.
- Strong programming skills in Python; Rust is a plus.
- Solid understanding of financial markets, especially equities.
- Hands-on experience with machine learning and natural language processing.
- Team-oriented mindset with a preference for in-office collaboration (remote work is not permitted).
- Willingness to travel occasionally to Rotterdam or London for team collaboration.
- Advanced degree (Master's or PhD) in a quantitative discipline from a top global program.
- Strong communication skills in English.
