Quantitative trading, hedge fund, New York, NY, ONSITE

I run a systematic quant trading group that trades globally. We are research driven and are working on solving tough problems at the intersection of math, statistics, and computer science. We believe that the combination of a rigorous scientific approach with solid engineering can expose inefficiencies in the markets.

We are looking for engineers/data scientists who have experience building mission critical distributed systems or large scale data pipelines.

Please get in touch (hiring.quant.trading AT gmail) if any of these things are applicable to you:

* You understand or have worked with applied math or computer science at an advanced level

* You have serious engineering chops and have built large scale high performance systems

* You are fluent in one or more of (c, java, golang, rust) and (python, q)

* You enjoy working in small groups in a fast paced environment

* You have experience building order management and execution systems for trading

* You enjoy working with data

We value the following personality traits:

* Intellectual curiosity

* Good work ethic

* Self-motivation

This is an exceptional opportunity for the right person. There is tremendous potential for both growth and comp, but it is not going to be a smooth ride. Our goal is to build something exceptional and the right person is used to not making choices that are “easy” or “default”.

Can I ask, do you really need Hadoop and "big data" for this? There have gotta be substantially fewer than 10k courts in the United States. What needs processed that SQL can't accommodate?

Meta-note: It may be wise to make a rule on what's appropriate to leave as a comment on these hiring posts. I can see some companies shying away if they feel like it's going to turn into a "critique my stack and/or hiring process" thing.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I interviewed at Percolate a few months ago and it was a really disorganized and offputting process. I had to wait in the lobby for 10 mins (I showed up on time) while people ran around and tried to figure things out and then they directed me to another floor where I had to wait another 10 minutes. And then the interview was conducted in an incredibly loud and distracting open office, not in a private room or anythin…

Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it and it's feedback like this that has led to many positive changes at Percolate. If I pin-pointed your interview activity accurately, you might have interviewed in June/July of last year when, admittedly, things were in flux. I joined in late August of 2015, and I've been part of enhancing the candidate experience for all of our candidates and the candidates who make it throug…

It's great to hear that. I have no qualms whatsoever with Percolate and those who I know work there highly recommended it so I was a bit surprised at how the interview went. But thanks for taking the time to respond to me, it's really nice to know that the process is being improved upon!
