- Provide detailed written feedback with actionable recommendations to improve research quality and accuracy.
- Collaborate asynchronously with project coordinators to clarify findings and communicate technical insights.
- Contribute to improving quantitative research evaluation methodologies.
- 7+ years of experience in quantitative research, quantitative analysis, or quantitative finance.

- Familiarity with SOFR and Eurodollar instruments, as well as Treasury futures.
- Strong knowledge of statistical analysis, factor modeling, and alpha research.
- Understanding of transaction costs, liquidity constraints, and realistic trading assumptions.
- Ability to identify lookahead bias, overfitting, data snooping, and other research methodology flaws.
- Excellent analytical, written communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to communicate complex quantitative concepts clearly and work effectively with distributed teams.
- Experience as a Quantitative Researcher, Quantitative Analyst, or Consultant specializing in fixed income or interest rate markets.
- Experience developing and backtesting systematic rates strategies at a hedge fund, asset management firm, or investment bank.
