Quantitative Developer

Senior Quant Developer (Python) - Equities StatArb - London - Up to £500k+ TC

Custom-built, high-performance Python DAG framework powering everything from research to live execution. Same codebase, same infrastructure, zero friction between backtesting and production P&L.

A global systematic investment manager ($6bn+ AUM) is expanding their Equities StatArb platform. Live since 2021, trading 24/6 globally.

Unified graph-based framework (DAG) across research, production, analytics, risk, and P&L. Deep Numpy/Numba work, processing vast historical datasets and real-time tick data. You\'ll contribute to shared tooling that researchers actually rely on.

You\'ll sit between researchers and the live trading desk, designing and owning critical pieces: portfolio construction, execution optimisation, transaction cost analysis. Direct line of sight to P&L.

What you\'ll need:

• 5+ years as a Quant Dev in a systematic hedge fund (StatArb/equities experience ideal)
• Strong grasp of statistical methods, numerical optimisation, and equity market microstructure
• Experience with Unix internals and graph-based data processing frameworks

What you\'ll be doing:

• Building and supporting complex StatArb strategies across large-scale data processing, modelling, portfolio construction, and execution
• Contributing to the design of the DAG framework used across the entire stack
• Working closely with researchers to build tooling, shared libraries, and frameworks that they actually rely on
• Taking ownership of system components in a fast-paced, agile setup

Compensation is genuinely uncapped, this could go north of £500k TC for the right person. No fixed budget, just a question of fit and impact.
