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

I am starting a new quantitative trading group that will systematically trade global Futures, FX, and Equities. We are research driven and are working on solving some really 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 people who are self-motivated, entrepreneurial, love working with data, and more importantly have the ability to go both broad and deep into problems.

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, statistics, or computer science at an advanced level

* You know mathematical optimization and can write your own convex solver if needed

* You have experience applying machine learning/statistics to noisy data

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

* You are fluent in one or more languages (python, c, java, q, R)

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

In additional to really interesting work, we offer tremendous potential for growth and compensation.

The locations are Florida, Texas, Virginia, and Maryland. Note that the Florida location would let you afford a big house in a decent neighborhood that is near both work and the beach. This is ONSITE. We hire INTERNS, experienced/old/PhD, and everything in between. Most of our work is low-level. We deal in assembly language (assembler) for MIPS, ARM, x86/x64, PowerPC (ppc), MSP430, 8051, AVR32, and many many others.…

Do you have any recommendations for a web developer who's looking to get into low level programming? After focusing on higher order languages like Javascript and Java for so long, it's hard to know where to start.

That's a tough one. Maybe you could help work on a JIT for Javascript or Java. This would get you into working on the low-level stuff while still making use of your existing knowledge. Another option is to pretend you are back in school. Find a course with syllabus and homework assignments posted online, buy the book that goes with the course, and do all the assignments. The aggressive approach is to just sit down and write your own boot loader or maybe jump into a capture the flag (CTF) problem with IDA Pro. In case you want to learn from a simple OS, look into xv6 from MIT. Add a few features, possibly as suggested for various courses that use the OS for teaching. You could add a debugging interface. Another idea is to write a disassembler.
