At Valkyrie, Quantitative Researchers spend their time focusing on one of two areas: modeling or execution. Modeling Quantitative Researchers are expected to design automated market-making and risk management algorithms, and to build statistically driven position taking strategies. Execution Quantitative Researchers are expected to perform post-trade analysis, system behavior investigations, algo parameter optimizations, market microstructure studies, and other execution system optimizations. Which of those areas best suits your skills and interests and why?✱
