About the Role

In this Atlanta, GA role, you will be accountable for a falsifiable research idea from point-in-time data construction through out-of-sample evaluation while supporting Eastern Time coordination of pre-market readiness and full-session operating decisions. The work requires direct communication, explicit limits, and records that remain useful after market conditions change.

Atlanta Operating Focus

The Atlanta opening emphasizes scalable processes, fast cross-team communication, and strong production accountability. Eastern Time coverage begins with production readiness and continues through the complete U.S. cash session. The opening coordinates fast responses across research, engineering, trading, and risk while keeping decision authority clear. Repeated manual work is converted into a documented control only after its inputs and failure cases are understood. For this role, that means direct ownership of equity-signal validation, sector diagnostics, and regime review during Eastern Time coordination of pre-market readiness and full-session operating decisions.

First Review Cycle

The Atlanta, GA opening begins with an end-to-end review of equity-signal validation, sector diagnostics, and regime review during Eastern Time coordination of pre-market readiness and full-session operating decisions. The review will keep research observations separate from live production decisions. The evidence package includes this task: Form hypotheses and build clean point-in-time equity datasets. It also includes this task: Test signal stability, turnover, capacity, and transaction-cost sensitivity. The Atlanta opening emphasizes scalable processes, fast cross-team communication, and strong production accountability. A peer will review both results from the same source data. The review closes only after another specialist can reproduce the key checks and identify the evidence behind the outcome for a falsifiable research idea from point-in-time data construction through out-of-sample evaluation.

  • Python and SQL proficiency with strong probability and statistics
  • Clear understanding of backtest bias and model validation

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with equity factors, corporate actions, and point-in-time fundamentals
  • A record of moving research into monitored production use
  • Experience collaborating across time zones while maintaining the operating coverage assigned to the Atlanta, GA opening.
