Evaluate and monitor strategies through rigorous backtesting, performance attribution and scenario analysis, and implement improvements based on results.
Partner with quantitative researchers to prioritize research, validate new models and accelerate deployment of analytical capabilities into production trading.
Collaborate with traders, risk managers and the global fundamental research team to integrate supply and demand insights, assess market exposures, identify portfolio risks and develop effective mitigation strategies.
Build decision-support tools and analytics that improve commercial decision making, and track emerging quantitative techniques to sustain competitive advantage.
