About BestEx Research
BestEx Research is a financial technology and research firm specializing in building sophisticated execution algorithms and transaction cost modeling tools servicing multiple asset classes. The company provides its services to performance-demanding hedge funds, CTAs, asset managers, and banks through a traditional electronic broker and in a broker-neutral Software as a Service (SaaS) model.
The mission of the firm is to become a leader in automation and measurement of execution across asset classes globally and significantly reduce transaction costs for clients.
Algo Management System (AMS)
The Algo Management System (AMS) is a cloud-based platform that delivers an entire ecosystem around execution algorithms, including transaction cost analysis (TCA), an algo customization tool called Strategy Studio, a trading dashboard, and pre-trade analytics in a single platform. The platform is currently live for US equity and global futures trading.
BestEx Research is disrupting a $100 billion industry by challenging the status quo of stale, black-box solutions from banks and offering next-generation execution algorithms that combine performance improvement with transparency and customization.
The company uses leading-edge technology to support its low-latency, highly scalable research and trading systems with its back end in C++, research libraries in C++/Python and R, and web-based technologies for delivering its front-end platforms.
Why Work at BestEx Research?
If you want to help investors reduce their trading costs in an incredibly complex market structure and contribute to creating and shaping an industry-defining product, then this is an excellent opportunity to join a talented team of professionals.
The company offers top-notch clients, zero bureaucracy, and a flat organizational structure. It is a true meritocracy, set in a collaborative environment, where every employee is working on extraordinarily interesting projects.
Compensation may be in the form of cash compensation or a hybrid cash and equity compensation plan. Employees receive a lot of autonomy and accountability and have exposure to much more variety in the projects they complete and opportunities for growth than in similar roles at other firms.
