The Role & Landscape

We are seeking a highly motivated, cross-functional Quantitative Developer / Researcher to join a premier, fast-paced Commodities trading desk. In this role, you will not be siloed; instead, you will have a 360-degree view of the entire trading lifecycle. You will work directly alongside portfolio managers and traders to build the next generation of quantitative tools and alpha-generating models.

• End-to-End Ownership: Design, develop, and optimize high-performance Python-based trading tools, pricing engines, and real-time execution algorithms.

• AI & ML Integration: Research and implement modern machine learning/AI workflows to extract predictive insights from complex, unstructured global energy market data.

• Data Pipeline Engineering: Build robust, scalable data pipelines to ingest and clean alternative datasets crucial for daily trading decisions.

• High-Octane Environment: Experience the direct impact of your code on the desk’s PnL within a high-intensity, intellectually stimulating environment.

What We Are Looking For

• Experience: 3 to 5 years of experience as a Quant Developer, Quant Researcher, or hands-on Quantitative Engineer within a boutique hedge fund, proprietary trading firm, or agile commodity desk.

• Technical Master: Advanced engineering capabilities in either Python or other programming languages (Java/ C++/ C#/ Rust/ Golang etc.), with deep familiarity of the scientific computing stack and software engineering best practices.

• Quantitative/AI Rigor: Strong mathematical, statistical, or machine learning foundations. Hands-on experience executing AI/ML projects is highly valued.

• Boutique Mindset: Proven track record of owning multiple domains (research, code, deployment, data). We value generalists who want to understand the "whole picture" over narrow specialists.

• Language Skills: Professional fluency or native proficiency in Mandarin/Chinese is required to effectively analyze regional datasets and communicate with crucial market counterparties.

• Drive & Stamina: A passion for continuous learning, an adaptable mindset, and the resilience to thrive in a high-intensity, highly rewarding trading environment.

Why Apply To This Role

• Unmatched Compensation: Extremely competitive base salary coupled with a highly lucrative, performance-driven formulaic bonus structure.

• True Ownership: Avoid the fragmentation of mega-banks. Here, you see the direct results of your research and code deployed directly into live trading.

• Global Relocation: Comprehensive relocation and visa support provided for exceptional candidates worldwide to move to one of Asia's premier financial capitals.

• Greenfield Projects: Work on highly complex, non-commoditized datasets using state-of-the-art AI infrastructure.
