Description:
**100% Remote**
The role focuses on quantitative development and optimization tools, requiring a blend of software development skills and a strong mathematics background. The developer will work on internal applications, primarily a tool used for portfolio management and optimization, which is a critical production tool for traders, portfolio managers, and analysts.

Responsibilities:
- Develop and maintain quantitative optimization tools used for portfolio management.
- Collaborate with traders, portfolio managers, and analysts to understand their needs and enhance the tool's functionality.
- Work on rebalancing portfolios subject to regulations and constraints.
- Ensure the tool closely replicates benchmarks or model portfolios.
- Participate in the full software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering to deployment.
- Write clean, scalable, and efficient code primarily in Java, with potential use of other languages like Python and MATLAB for scripting and analysis.
- Convert existing modules from MATLAB or other scientific computing languages into production-ready software.
- Maintain and enhance the tool's integration with industry data sets such as Bloomberg and Reuters.
Experience Requirements:
- Strong programming skills in Java; experience with Python, MATLAB, or other scripting languages is a plus.
- Solid understanding of quantitative finance, optimization, and portfolio management.
- Experience with databases such as Postgres and Oracle.
- Familiarity with industry data sets and financial market data.
- Ability to work at the intersection of software development and quantitative analysis.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
Education Requirements:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Finance, or a related field. A graduate degree is preferred.
