About the Role

The Austin, TX position owns research infrastructure, point-in-time data integrity, experiment lineage, and reliable numerical workloads. Its working schedule covers Central Time collaboration between quantitative research, engineering, and trading operations. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.

Austin Operating Focus

The Austin opening emphasizes reproducible experiments, production discipline, and direct technical communication. This opening sits at the boundary between research ideas and production systems. Experiments must be reproducible, data lineage must remain visible, and a promising result does not bypass release controls. Central Time overlap supports direct work with both coasts, while written design records keep asynchronous review effective. For this role, that means direct ownership of research-platform reliability, experiment lineage, and large time-series workloads during Central Time collaboration between quantitative research, engineering, and trading operations.

First Review Cycle

The Austin, TX opening begins with an end-to-end review of research-platform reliability, experiment lineage, and large time-series workloads during Central Time collaboration between quantitative research, engineering, and trading operations. The review will keep research observations separate from live production decisions. The evidence package includes this task: Develop reusable data and backtest infrastructure. It also includes this task: Improve experiment tracking, lineage, and reproducibility. The Austin opening emphasizes reproducible experiments, production discipline, and direct technical communication. A peer will review both results from the same source data. The final record separates completed work, open research, and live operating risk. A reviewer must be able to trace each material decision to research infrastructure, point-in-time data integrity, experiment lineage, and reliable numerical workloads.

Responsibilities

  • Develop reusable data and backtest infrastructure
  • Improve experiment tracking, lineage, and reproducibility
  • Optimize large time-series workloads
