Our teams work collaboratively to drive the production of alphas and financial strategies – the foundation of a balanced, global investment platform.

WorldQuant is built on a culture that pairs academic sensibility with accountability for results. Employees are encouraged to think openly about problems, balancing intellectualism and practicality. Excellent ideas come from anyone, anywhere. Employees are encouraged to challenge conventional thinking and possess an attitude of continuous improvement.

Our goal is to hire the best and the brightest. We value intellectual horsepower first and foremost, and people who demonstrate an outstanding talent. There is no roadmap to future success, so we need people who can help us build it.

  • Contribute to broader firm research and strategic initiatives

What You'll Bring

  • 2+ years' experience in developing systematic strategies including a verifiable track record with positive PnL and Sharpe
  • Strong programming skills in mainstream quant programming languages, such as Python and C++
