Schonfeld - Quantitative Developer - Fundamental Equities

• 2–5 years of experience in a relevant role: quantitative development, dev strats, analytics engineering, product management, or quantitative analysis at a bank, hedge fund, asset manager, or financial data provider • Strong Python proficiency; solid SQL and database usage skills (relational and/or time-series) • Demonstrated experience building dashboards and UIs that were actively leveraged by investment teams or professional users in a production environment • Hands-on experience with AI/LLM integration: API usage, prompt engineering, tool use, and retrieval-augmented workflows. You have built things with these, not just read about them • Practical familiarity with MCP servers, agentic frameworks, or multi-model orchestration architectures (custom implementations or equivalent) • Experience with AI-assisted development tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) as part of a day-to-day engineering workflow • Sound software engineering fundamentals: version control, structured codebases, CI/CD pipelines, documentation, testing • Actively engaged with the AI development landscape: you follow what is changing, test new tools and frameworks hands-on to form your own views, and translate those views into practical decisions about what to build and how • Collaborative by nature: you share ideas openly, contribute to collective knowledge, and are comfortable working across technical and non-technical audiences, from quant researchers and central Tech teams to investment professionals. The team culture is open, engaged, and friendly, and we are looking for someone who genuinely thrives in that environment • Product-minded: you think about who is using the tool and what problem it solves, not just whether the code runs • Comfortable in a business-facing team where pace matters and requirements evolve. This is not a research lab environment • Self-starter who takes ownership end-to-end, from scoping and delivery through to maintenance and iteration • Intellectually curious about financial markets and the investment process • We’d love if you had: • Exposure to alternative data ingestion or vendor API integrations • Prior experience in a hedge fund or multi-manager platform • Comfortable working within AWS: EC2, containerized workloads, and infrastructure managed via Terraform or similar IaC tooling • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and workflow orchestration frameworks (Prefect, Airflow, or equivalent) • Who we are  Schonfeld is a global multi-manager hedge fund that strives to deliver industry-leading risk-adjusted returns for our investors.
