CMT is a proprietary trading and asset management company with its headquarters in Chicago. CMT has been together for more than two decades and has built a team of professionals with significant trading, technology, and private equity experience. Operating across five continents, we are an internationally respected proprietary trading and financial services firm, and through our private investments arm, we incubate both early-stage and mature businesses by stimulating innovation and maximizing value.
Our trading team joined CMT one year ago from LGT Capital Partners, a leading European alternative asset manager, where we developed and managed innovative news-based algorithmic strategies that blend data with behavioral models, winning prestigious HFM Quant Performance Awards in 2020 and 2021. Having extended our modeling framework to intraday horizons, we launched with CMT a mid-frequency algorithmic strategy with SR>3. We operate out of Cayman Islands, providing a tax- free environment in a picturesque Caribbean setting, and are now looking for a talented quantitative researcher to complement our team.
Format: On-site full-time.
Compensation: Annual salary of USD 120,000 plus a discretionary bonus.
