Business Development and Strategy Associate

Trexquant develops and operates systematic trading strategies across a range of global liquid markets. This takes an enormous, deeply technical system, and an exceptional team to build it. We're a collaborative, fast-moving group of researchers and engineers who push aggressively, adopt new technologies early, thoughtfully integrate machine learning across our platform, and genuinely love what we build. If you're the kind of person who wants to take full ownership of bringing an established quantitative fund to a new location and build something from the ground up, we're looking for you.
