Remote Quant Developer
Rewrite the Rules of Finance—From Your Living Room
💡 Ever tried building a trading model with your dog at your feet and the kettle whistling in the background? That’s what remote quant life looks like for us. Here, you can write the code that shakes up markets—all from your favorite spot at home. Yes, we pay for it: $163,806 a year to do brilliant things with numbers, code, and a little bit of rebellion.
A Story That Starts with Oddballs
🚀 Our company was born when a few restless minds decided spreadsheets and stale routines weren’t for them. They tore up the script, experimented in their kitchens, and traded sleep for breakthroughs. Fast-forward: our team is now global, our sense of humor is legendary, and we still believe the best ideas come from breaking the usual mold. Here, every coder, analyst, and problem-solver is encouraged to think sideways—and occasionally roast the markets on Slack.
We’re here to build tools and strategies that don’t just follow trends—they set them. That means asking strange questions, pushing boundaries, and laughing at old conventions (sometimes literally).
What Will You Do?
🎯 Let’s Get Specific:
- Invent, test, and tune trading systems that leave boring old algorithms in the dust.
- Turn market noise into smart, simple code—whatever you wear and wherever you work.
- Collaborate remotely with quant devs, data geeks, and machine learning fans—our video calls are a blend of brainstorming and friendly banter.
- Find creative ways around tough math challenges. Speed up code, reimagine models, and make complexity feel easy.
- Scan the markets for wild shifts and hidden patterns, then turn that chaos into your next big breakthrough.
- Own your successes and your misfires—sometimes you’ll win, sometimes you’ll laugh and try again.
What Makes You Our Kind of Weird
🌟 You Get a Kick Out of Problems:
You treat every cryptic bug or math challenge like a puzzle box—and you get genuine joy out of unlocking it (bonus points if you celebrate with a meme).
🤝 Distance Is No Barrier:
You’re great at collaborating online, turning feedback into progress, and tossing around ideas in chat or on video. You know how to lighten things up when the team needs it.
🎨 Your Brain is a Mix of Art and Math:
You don’t just solve financial problems—you remix them, play with them, and ask questions no one else thinks of.
