About the Role
Our client is seeking a senior Quantitative Researcher to join their Delta One desk.
You will focus on the hedging strategies. We are looking for a researcher who can apply machine learning and rigorous statistical analysis to optimise inventory holding, signal generation, and portfolio construction.
Key Responsibilities
- Inventory Optimization: Apply machine learning techniques to model inventory dynamics, predict availability, and optimize the costs associated with holding positions.
- Signal Research: Research and backtest signals related to supply/demand imbalances and flow dynamics to improve inventory turnover and yield.
- Portfolio Construction: Determining the optimal value of a basket based on hedging costs and strategy rather than theoretical models.
- Systematic Hedging: Design and simulate hedging strategies for linear (Delta One) portfolios.
- Model Deployment: Implement your models and logic into the production environment using Python.
What We Are Looking For
Experience: 5+ years of experience in Quantitative Research, Inventory Management, or Systematic Strats.
Domain Knowledge:
- Strong understanding of Inventory Management and Hedging mechanics.
- Expertise in Portfolio Optimization and Signal Research.
- Explicit Note: No stochastic calculus, exotics pricing, or non-linear derivatives background required.
Technical Skills:
- Quant First: While Python is required for implementation, the priority is your ability to apply mathematical and statistical concepts (Machine Learning, Optimization) to financial problems.
- Proven experience deploying Machine Learning models (e.g., for signal generation or inventory prediction) in a live environment.
- Education: Advanced degree (Masters/PhD) in a quantitative field.
