Quantitative Researcher at Quant Trading Hedge Fund

 

Domeyard is a hedge fund focused on high frequency trading. We are backed by the CEO of one of the largest quant funds in the world ($55 billion in AUM), the pioneer of China's internet industry, one of the world’s biggest fintech investors, and more.  

We are a flat organization, in which the founders sit next to the interns, and traditional titles don't exist. Our flexible work hours, casual dress code, startup environment (open office with a gaming room, snack pantry, catered food) and generous employee perks (insurance, transportation, phone, health and dental coverage) ensure that you can commit fully to your intellectual interests. We welcome cultural diversity and are able to sponsor H1-B visas. 

We are looking for people who share our passion for science and technology, add a fun-loving character to our team, and inspire each other's growth. We are also looking for potential that we can help nurture, which is why no financial experience is expected. You will be joining as an early team member, influencing the firm's direction, collaborating on existing projects, and leading projects of your own. Feel free to show us any work that demonstrates your interests, e.g. code samples, academic publications, GitHub projects.
