Summary

Description:
**100% Remote**

The role focuses on quantitative development and optimization tools, requiring a blend of software development skills and a strong mathematics background. The developer will work on internal applications, primarily a tool used for portfolio management and optimization, which is a critical production tool for traders, portfolio managers, and analysts. The tool is developed in-house and written in Java, but the client is open to candidates with experience in other programming languages, particularly those with a strong quantitative and analytical skill set.

Develop and maintain quantitative optimization tools used for portfolio management.
Collaborate with traders, portfolio managers, and analysts to understand their needs and enhance the tool's functionality.
Work on rebalancing portfolios subject to regulations and constraints.
Ensure the tool closely replicates benchmarks or model portfolios.
Participate in the full software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering to deployment.
Write clean, scalable, and efficient code primarily in Java, with potential use of other languages like Python and MATLAB for scripting and analysis.
Convert existing modules from MATLAB or other scientific computing languages into production-ready software.
Maintain and enhance the tool's integration with industry data sets such as Bloomberg and Reuters.

Experience Requirements:

Strong programming skills in Java; experience with Python, MATLAB, or other scripting languages is a plus.
Solid understanding of quantitative finance, optimization, and portfolio management.
Experience with databases such as Postgres and Oracle.
Familiarity with industry data sets and financial market data.
Ability to work at the intersection of software development and quantitative analysis.
Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.

Education Requirements:
