Form of workWe are looking for an Implementation Quantitative Developer to join our Quantitative Risk and Research team. You will be responsible for taking models from the Model Development team, optimizing them, and implementing them so that the business as an end user can make decisions.

Work with the model development team to understand the models and how they can and cannot be used.
Work with the tech team to optimize the integration of models into the current tech framework.
Present code improvements and solutions to model development, tech, and the business.
Ability to work solo on projects with minimal oversight.
