Senior Quantitative Developer

About the Role

Join a fintech team building and operating financial risk-scoring systems. You will translate defined methodologies into reliable production software, build validation tools, and help ensure scoring remains accurate as the product and data grow.

What You'll Do

• Implement and maintain production risk-scoring calculations from documented methodologies, raising questions when requirements are ambiguous.
• Make scoring runs repeatable and safe to replay, and improve performance as portfolio and security volumes increase.
• Contribute to modular, well-organized calculation and analytics libraries that other product teams can build on.
• Build a deterministic reference-set validation harness, integrate it into CI, and report coverage and model drift.
• Work within established production engineering practices, including testing, code review, and CI.
• Help broaden analytical capabilities beyond risk scoring as product needs evolve.

What We're Looking For

• At least 5 years of experience building and maintaining deployed production software, including work in an existing codebase with tests, code review, and CI.
• Experience building large-scale systems and working with high-volume data.
• Hands-on experience implementing financial risk models, including volatility, correlation, concentration, or tail measures, or experience with options, structured products, and derivatives.
• Strong quantitative or technical foundations in computer science, mathematics, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Knowledge of financial instruments and classification, scoring methodologies, and proxies for instruments with limited history.
• Experience with Python and Django in production, web scrapers and data adapters, and automated solutions such as trading systems or strategies.
• Familiarity with reference-data validation, live financial-data migrations and backfills, and US financial markets; tax-optimization experience is also relevant.
