Careers

QES offers periodic intern positions to candidates with advanced graduate level coursework in PhD-track programs in technical or scientific fields (especially but not limited to mathematics, physics, and financial engineering).

We continually investigate complex new trading strategies, involving identifying and capitalizing on patterns found across combinations of financial time series. Training in financial markets and economics is not required. Excellent candidates will be self-starters who enjoy research-oriented thinking and problem solving in a dynamic, frenetic, and jocular atmosphere.

Requirements include:

• familiarity with statistics and probability,
• computing skills, preferably including some programming experience, and
• a great sense of humor.

Internships typically entail a commitment of 20-40 hours per week, 4-6 month projects with flexible start/end dates, with pay dependent on experience and skills. To apply, please write to jobs@qesinvest.com with a resume and cover letter introducing yourself and addressing why the position interests you.
