New York, United States PDT Partners Full time

PDT Partners – a quantitative investment manager – is seeking a sharp, independent analyst to join our Technical and Trading Operations team. The Technical and Trading Operations team manages our production plant and runs our global real-time algorithmic trading around the clock from New York City. This role offers a unique opportunity to be at the center of a leading quantitative trading firm, with exposure to many parts of the business and a crucial role in helping them fit together. 

You will work collaboratively with fellow team members, as well as technologists, risk managers, and portfolio managers to oversee both our trading and technology and respond to alerts and other signs of irregular activity. This role will focus on Asia market coverage (5:30 PM - 3 AM ET).

You should thrive on the sense of urgency and quick problem-solving required in such an environment, as you will guide our systems through pre-market activities, real-time trade execution, and post-session processing. You should also be relentless in driving continual improvement in our processes and tools, making us more efficient and resilient. You will also build tools and automation to improve PDT’s operational capabilities.  

Why join us? PDT Partners has a stellar 30+ year track record and a reputation for excellence. Our goal is to be the best quantitative investment manager in the world—measured by the quality of our products, not their size. PDT’s extremely high employee-retention rate speaks for itself. Our people are intellectually exceptional, and our community is close-knit, down-to-earth, and diverse.
