About the job

A leading global hedge fund is looking for a Desk Quant / Strat to join one of its systematic macro trading teams in Hong Kong.

This is an opportunity for a strong, technically minded quantitative professional to work directly with the investment desk, helping build and develop the quantitative tools, analytics and infrastructure supporting the trading process.

The team is particularly interested in high-potential candidates earlier in their careers who have developed strong foundations within a quantitative trading environment. You do not need to be the finished article — intellectual ability, technical strength and the appetite to build and learn are key.

Key Requirements
  1. Circa 3–6 years' experience in a Desk Quant, Strat or similar quantitative role
  2. Strong background in Python and quantitative analysis
  3. Experience working closely with traders and/or investment teams
  4. Exposure to Macro products , ideally across linear and/or non-linear products
  5. Strong understanding of financial markets, derivatives, pricing, risk or trading analytics
  6. Strong mathematical and technical foundations
  7. Experience from a leading investment bank, hedge fund or similarly sophisticated trading environment
  8. Commercial mindset with the ability to turn trading requirements into practical quantitative solutions

Why Consider This Opportunity
  1. Work directly within a systematic macro trading environment
  2. Opportunity to build rather than simply maintain an established platform
  3. Broad exposure to quantitative trading, analytics and investment decision-making
  4. Significant learning curve with the opportunity to develop alongside experienced investment professionals
  5. Excellent longer-term progression for someone looking to move closer to the systematic buy-side
