Quantitative Strategist Intern — IIT Undergraduate Students

1 week ago

Nellore, India Longshanks Capital Full time

Firm

Headquartered in Berkeley Square of Mayfair, London, Longshanks Capital is a proprietary trading firm specializing in quantamental finance adopting a data-driven and semi-systematic approach in the equity derivatives markets.


Role and Location

This role is a part-time internship and remotely based in India (with the prospect of visa sponsorship for relocation to HQ in London or Hong Kong after graduation assuming continuous stellar performance and gifted innate potential) for a Quantitative Strategist at Longshanks Capital, who will be involved in for building the core quantitative development framework in Java and MySQL, performing quantitative analytics, in-depth backtesting, and otherwise adopting general quantamental principles. For applicants with a background in Economics, the successful applicant will perform fundamental equity analysis—the partners consider macroeconomic factors generally to be highly noisy for equity derivatives trading, save for index futures hedging being the prime example. The role, naturally, requires stellar knowledge of Computer Science, Mathematics, and Statistics—with Economics a bonus.


University Requirement

Applicants must currently be an undergraduate student expected to graduate in 2026 or beyond at an IIT institution for their degree, ideally majoring in Computer Science.


Partner Mentorship and Training

The successful applicant will have direct and frequent mentorship and training from the current Partners of the firm, Robert Kehres. Robert formerly founded hedge fund 18 Salisbury Capital and was a quantitative trader at J.P. Morgan, inter alia, and graduated from Cambridge and Oxford. Robert has substantial proprietary knowledge from industry in achieving success in derivatives and quantitative trading meshed with fundamental equity analysis.


Compensation

The part-time internship would not have a stipend initially and as such be treated as a prestigious university project with potential progression for equity and/or cash compensation for top performers. Assuming continuous strong performance and potential with gifted innate intelligence, there is further potential progression to convert and solidify the internship to full-time well-compensated employment after graduation with potential revenue share compensation on top of cash and equity compensation—and finally potential visa sponsorship for relocation to HQ in London or Hong Kong, if desired.


Qualifications

Applicants must have working knowledge of Java, ideally, or otherwise C# and/or C++ and/or C in addition to R and/or MATLAB and have experience in developing and implementing quantitative, particularly statistical, models—the firm's options tables now compromise at least 100 million records of granular historical data, highly multithreaded. Sophisticated knowledge of the financial markets, economics (including econometrics), and trading strategies, particularly in equities and their derivatives, is a desired bonus.


Equal Opportunity

Longshanks Capital is an equal opportunity employer that assesses prospective candidates solely based on merit without regard for race, gender, religion, age, nationality, and marital status.
