South Florida Search Partners | Junior Quant Trader/Researcher

2 weeks ago


fort lauderdale, United States South Florida Search Partners Full time

Our client is a $150mm multi-strategy hedge fund focused on generating uncorrelated alpha through innovative quantitative strategies and short-term, catalyst-driven investing. The approach is entrepreneurial and hands-on, valuing creativity and adaptability over rigid processes. Strategies center around event-driven opportunities such as tender offers, spinoffs, secondaries, risk arbitrage, merger arbitrage, and closed-end funds. They specialize in valuing esoteric and hard-to-price securities, analyzing LLMs with advanced coding techniques. Success requires a "scrappy" mindset—being resourceful, adaptable, and eager to tackle challenges.

Role Overview:

Rare opportunity to work directly with the lead PM in a collaborative, entrepreneurial setting. As a Junior Quant Trader/Researcher, you will play a key role in supporting trading and research efforts while building the skills needed to become an independent contributor to the investment process.

Responsibilities:

• Collaborate closely with the lead PM to develop and refine quantitative models for valuing complex and structured securities.

• Write and optimize code to deploy large language models (LLMs) and other tools for analyzing and extracting insights from developed as well as esoteric data.

• Take ownership of operational tasks such as P&L reporting, data analysis, and refining trading models.

• Build tools and algorithms to assess and value complex and hard-to-price securities.

• Build a foundation for generating self-directed investment ideas, with a goal of proposing actionable strategies by the end of the first year.

Candidate Profile:

Experience:

2–4 years of experience in trading and analyzing complex/packaged securities

Demonstrated expertise in software programming and coding, particularly for both large data sets and those with unique, less clean data.


Education:

Degree in Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, or Engineering. A Master’s or Ph.D. is highly desirable.


Technical Skills:

Advanced programming proficiency in Python (preferred), R, C++, or other relevant languages.

Ability to design, build, and optimize models for quantitative analysis and valuation, and importantly look through the numbers for insight, errors, opportunities.


Mindset & Traits:

Strong intellectual curiosity and a self-starter attitude, with the ability to quickly learn and adapt.

Scrappy, resourceful, and comfortable with ambiguity, thriving in a non-institutional, hands-on role.

Highly quantitative and detail-oriented, with a creative, outside-the-box approach to problem-solving.

Eager to work hard in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.

Compensation & Benefits:

• Competitive base salary with performance-driven bonus potential.

• Direct mentorship and exposure to the lead PM and hedge fund owner.

• Opportunity to grow into a critical role with significant responsibility over time.

To Apply:

If you are a highly motivated, quantitative thinker with exceptional programming skills and a scrappy, entrepreneurial mindset, please submit your resume, cover letter, and any relevant examples of your coding or quantitative work.
