Job Description

We are looking for a Computer Science or Computer Engineering graduate/student to work as a data science analyst in a Global Macro Hedge Fund. 

The candidate will need to meet the following requirements:

1) Highly proficient in Python and R.

2) Experience with Machine Learning algorithms. Comfortable working with large data sets to find optimal solutions.  

3) Keen interest in financial markets and the ability to work independently.

Main Project

Working with a broad set of financial inputs to forecast economic data and then fine tune a systematic trading strategy.
Candidate will need to perform the programming task independently, so it requires a high proficiency in Python and the ability to sieve through a huge data set to derive an optimal solution.
Objective is to build a quantitative framework for asset allocation in different investing regimes and the final product will be a tool that will recommend asset exposures on a daily basis.

The candidate will also be coached during this 6 month internship to acquire the necessary skills to be a junior analyst on a macro trading desk. Potential for full time employment after.
