Quantitative Systematic Trader - Honours and Master's

Susquehanna International Group Sydney, Australia

Overview

We're looking for quant-minded strategists who value interdisciplinary knowledge and cooperative thinking. Our Quantitative Systematic Traders combine quantitative research skills with trading knowledge to develop new electronic strategies and monitor real-time performance. As a hybrid of core disciplines, Quantitative Systematic Traders communicate and connect ideas between trading, technology, and research.

The typical project cycle begins with an idea:

  • Ideas can come from anyone: you, your mentor, or colleagues.
  • You will investigate these ideas by analyzing market data using mathematics, statistics, and programming tools.
  • You may discover new patterns that can become trading signals.
  • These signals are tested in our backtesting environment to evaluate their performance.
  • If profitable, you'll collaborate with technologists to implement them in production.
  • Once embedded, you'll monitor their real-time performance in the markets.
  • Feedback and brainstorming with colleagues will help evolve strategies and generate new projects.

We offer a comprehensive orientation program to bridge academia and industry, including options pricing, proprietary data sets, and data analysis techniques. Our trading floor fosters ongoing learning and development.

What we're looking for

  • Honours or Master's degree in Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Operations Research, or Economics
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent logical reasoning
  • Effective communication skills in collaborative, fast-paced environments
  • Experience coding for data processing and analysis in Python
  • Experience with C++ or similar low-level languages is a plus
  • Interest in strategic games or competitive activities
  • Ability to perform well under pressure

What's in it for you

  • Leading education programs combining classroom, simulation, and international secondments
  • A casual, collaborative culture emphasizing continuous development
  • Competitive pay, bonuses, and additional leave
  • Private healthcare, gym allowances, and wellness initiatives
  • Daily meals and social events
  • Visa sponsorship and relocation support

Applying for this role also considers you for our Quantitative Researcher position—no separate application needed.
