Our Client global team consists of researchers, portfolio managers and technologists.  The team in Budapest is a result of their recent expansion. 

 They seek to produce high-quality predictive signals (alphas) through our proprietary research platform to employ financial strategies focused on exploiting market inefficiencies. Our teams work collaboratively to drive the production of alphas and financial strategies – the foundation of a sustainable, global investment platform.

Technologists in this Company do research, design, code, test and deploy projects while working collaboratively with researchers and portfolio managers. Work environment is relaxed yet intellectually intense. Their teams are agile, which means rapid prototyping of products with immediate user feedback.

We seek people who think in code, aspire to solve undiscovered computer science challenges and are motivated by being around like-minded people. In fact, of the 600 employees globally, approximately 500 of them code on a daily basis.

Our Client’s success is built on a culture that pairs academic sensibility with accountability for results. Employees are encouraged to think openly about problems, balancing intellectualism and practicality. Great ideas come from anyone, anywhere. Employees are encouraged to challenge conventional thinking and possess a mindset of continuous improvement. That’s a key ingredient in remaining a leader in any industry.
