How much will a barrel of oil cost in 5 minutes? At what interest are banks willing to lend in 2027? This work involves finding patterns and signals across products and markets, using data to validate ideas, regular brainstorming with colleagues, finding appropriate functional forms, regularly calibrating parameters, and creating and maintaining model code in Python.

At Qminers, we develop an algorithmic trading system that trades completely autonomously on 4 continents, 24/7. Our business is based on smarts, optimization, precise problem formulation and careful statistics, and sometimes arbitrage, which as everyone knows doesn’t exist.

Quantitative Analyst

We like to give people room to realize their potential and have a direct impact on results. We like to have results reasonably fast, both in terms of development and runtime. We spend most of our time thinking, discussing what the best solution is, and coding. We see each other in the office 4 days a week, but we don’t set fixed timetables.
