Summary: The role of Quantitative Developer / Compiler Engineer involves supporting the development of a specialized graph compiler aimed at optimizing performance for complex financial simulations. Candidates will collaborate on design and optimization, integrate simulation logic with high-performance computing workflows, and enhance systems for risk analytics and derivatives pricing. The position requires a unique combination of financial modeling expertise and strong programming skills, particularly in C++ and Python. This is a fully remote position with an emphasis on diversity and inclusion in the hiring process.
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborating on the design and optimization of a domain-specific graph compiler tailored to financial simulations
- Working closely with internal teams and stakeholders to integrate simulation logic with high-performance computing workflows
- Profiling and optimizing computational code paths to significantly reduce runtime and improve accuracy
- Supporting or enhancing systems that handle risk analytics, derivatives pricing, and exposure simulations
Key Skills:
- Strong programming experience in C++ and Python
- Prior experience as a Quant or Compiler Engineer, ideally within investment banks or hedge funds
- Deep understanding of XVA, Monte Carlo methods, or other financial risk modeling frameworks
- Familiarity with numerical methods and high-performance computing
- Ability to work independently and communicate complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Knowledge of DSLs (domain-specific languages), compiler design, or GPU acceleration (nice-to-have)
- Prior work on graph-based compilers or computational graph frameworks (nice-to-have)
- Experience collaborating with quant research teams and risk/valuation groups in a financial institution (nice-to-have)
