Requirements
- What We Are Looking For
- The ideal candidate is an exceptional operator who combines strategic thinking with a strong bias toward execution.
- You should be comfortable working across highly technical teams and understanding complex systems well enough to identify the important problems, ask the right questions, establish priorities, and ensure that they are solved.
- We value candidates who:
- Have demonstrated experience leading complex, cross-functional organizations or initiatives.
- Are exceptionally strong at setting goals and driving execution.
- Can break large, ambiguous problems into concrete and manageable projects.
- Understand technology and quantitative systems sufficiently to work effectively with researchers and engineers.
- Can coordinate many simultaneous initiatives without losing sight of the firm's larger objectives.
- Create accountability through clear ownership and measurable outcomes.
- Are intellectually curious and willing to learn unfamiliar areas quickly.
- Are comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve as new opportunities emerge.
- What Success Looks Like
- Success in this role means steadily removing the barriers between a researcher's idea and its implementation.
- Over time, a Trexquant researcher should be able to formulate a cross-asset or cross-region investment hypothesis, access the necessary data, backtest it accurately, evaluate it, and deploy it to production through a common platform with increasingly little manual infrastructure work.
- The COO's responsibility is to help organize and drive the company toward making that vision a reality.
Benefits
- Competitive salary with performance-based bonus.
- Collaborative, casual, and friendly work environment.
- PPO health, dental, and vision insurance fully covered for you and your dependents.
- Pre-tax commuter benefits.
- Weekly company-provided meals.
- The base salary range is $200,000 to $300,000, depending on candidates’ educational and professional background. Base salary is only one part of Trexquant’s total compensation, which may include a discretionary and performance based bonus.
- Trexquant is an Equal Opportunity Employer
