Albert Bow Hiring! Full Time Quantitative Researcher in - Ricebowl

Quantitative Researcher/Portfolio Manager - Crypto MFT - Remote (Globally)

(Base + Sign on + Guarantee) For the right candidate, Guaranteed TC $2m+

Join an established liquid crypto trading business and help shape its next phase of growth in frontier markets. You'll work on live systematic strategies: signal research, execution, portfolio construction, risk-taking, and post-trade analysis. You'll also explore new markets, products, and strategy areas (adjacent liquid markets, derivatives, volatility, market structure) where the firm can build durable edge.

This is a broad mandate. You'll be part of a high-performing crypto desk with real scope to influence what we trade next.

Responsibilities

• Develop, test, and deploy quantitative models (statistical, econometric, ML) with direct PnL ownership
• Mine market microstructure, derivatives, and macro data for persistent, monetizable signals
• Productionize models and improve execution and research infrastructure
• Run backtesting, scenario analysis, and post-trade attribution
• Help shape research direction, market selection, and firm strategy

Must-Haves

• 2–5 years in quantitative research or systematic trading at a top-tier prop firm, hedge fund, or trading platform
• Strong foundations in statistics, probability, ML, or optimization
• Track record turning research on noisy financial data into live trading strategies
• Strong Python (or similar) skills, comfortable working independently
• Top-tier peer group, high ownership mindset, thrives in ambiguity
• Previous experience in Tier 1 firms or exceptional education

What We're Looking For

• Entrepreneurial researcher who wants a broader mandate, not just a research seat
• Strong signal-vs-noise judgement, avoids overfitting and fragile conclusions
• Intellectually independent, firm-building mindset, strong communicator
• Crypto experience a plus, not required

About the Fund

A quantitative proprietary trading firm specializing in frontier markets, with substantial AUM, using a quant and fundamentally informed approach to medium-frequency liquid trading. We're focused on markets like early crypto once was: inefficient, messy, under-institutionalized, where strong quant infrastructure creates edge.

Previous experience at tier 1 firms is preferable.
