About Winton

Winton is a research-based investment management company with a specialist focus on statistical and mathematical inference in financial markets. The firm researches and trades quantitative investment strategies, which are implemented systematically via thousands of securities, spanning the world's major liquid asset classes. Founded in 1997 by David Harding, Winton today manages assets for some of the world’s largest institutional investors.

We employ ambitious professionals who want to work collaboratively at the leading edge of investment management.

We are seeking a talented quantitative developer to join the Investment Management & Research group at Winton. The role sits within our Fundamental Commodities strategy, where you will work closely with the Senior Portfolio Manager. Within our collaborative environment, you will help design and build the systems and tools that underpin the firm's trading and research.

Your focus will initially be on software development: adding functionality required for new trading strategies and maintaining the existing signal pipeline. Over time, you will become more involved in research, eventually running projects independently.

Your responsibilities will include:

Design, implement and maintain pipelines for the ingestion of new datasets for systematic trading strategies

Partner with the Portfolio Manager and senior developers to deploy new trading strategies

Maintain and improve trading infrastructure, data visualisations and data validation in a production environment

What we're looking for:

1st class undergraduate degree in Computer Science

Postgraduate qualifications are preferred but not necessary

Completed a relevant internship (e.g. software engineering, quantitative development, or a related placement), with strong skills in Python

Hands-on experience with building and deploying data pipelines, gained through internship, academic, or personal projects

Familiarity with modern infrastructure (CI/CD, Kafka, Airflow)

Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Detail orientated, with a commitment to best engineering practices

The ability to prioritise, plan and deliver to projects in a timely manner

What would be useful:

Academic or internship exposure to trading systems for commodity derivatives, ideally within a systematic hedge fund

Experience of working closely with researchers and portfolio managers

Basic knowledge of statistical modelling in a financial context

Exposure to parallel & concurrent processing, e.g. Dask

Familiarity with containerised cloud development, deployment and management (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS)

We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
