Candidates should have a drive for algorithmic execution and should be eager to work in a demanding environment. As a part of the team, you will be primarily working on the quantitative modelling of intra-day execution strategies along with the consolidation of our in-house frameworks of analytics and prediction models (volume curves, liquidity indicators, …). You will also be in close interaction with developers to help push the models to production, and then with algo-traders to monitor and backtest them.

• Fluency in Python or R to interact with our research environment.
• Proficiency in Java or C++ is advantageous.
• Problem-solving mindset, with an emphasis on practical and realistic solutions that can eventually be pushed to production.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, to collaborate with other quants, developers, and algo-traders in an English-speaking environment.
• Ability to be responsive, as models may require support through quick analysis or adjustments during the intra-day trading period.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS:

Between two and three rounds of interviews to assess suitability for the position.

If you are interested and think you match the profile, please submit your CV in English.

You will need a flexible and creative approach in order to flourish in our international environment and succeed with our diverse client base. If you possess these qualities and would like to be part of Kepler Cheuvreux’s story, then come and join us!
