Quantitative Researcher

We are looking for an experienced Alpha Researcher to join VivCourt's Systematic MFT team.

VivCourt is a quantitative trading firm with a unique people-first approach. We trade multiple asset classes in global financial markets, leveraging robust technology, data, and intuitive research platforms to find value. 

Join VivCourt’s Systematic  MFT team

Join VivCourt’s systematic trading team to develop and run your own strategies, either independently within the broader platform, or in close collaboration with our existing research team. The role isn't tied to a specific asset class or market. We're looking for strong candidates from any background who bring a genuine edge, the research skill to capture it, and a proven track record running a strategy end-to-end. You'll own the research strategy design, work with our engineers to take it live, and track and analyse how your strategy performs in production.

What you will bring:

• Strong research process, diligence, and quantitative problem-solving skills.
• Deep experience in alpha research, portfolio construction and backtesting, ideally complemented by broader full-stack quantitative research experience spanning data sourcing and cleaning through to production implementation.
• strong truth-seeking mindset, willing to challenge assumptions, debate ideas from any angle, remain unbiased toward your own work, and be genuinely willing to be proven wrong.

What You’ll Find

• A collaborative, open-minded research culture with strong team energy, welcoming new approaches and innovative thinking.
• An established research and trading platform that allows new researchers with proven signals to get up and running quickly.
• Ambitious plans for growth, with plenty of scope to make a meaningful impact and take ownership from day one.

Why VivCourt

• No shareholders. Our profits fund social impact.
• Performance + purpose. We aim to be one of the best trading firms in the world while contributing to a better one.
• Flat structure, fast decisions. You’ll have access, ownership, and autonomy.

• People-first culture.

Our Commitment to Inclusion 

We bring talented people together to do exceptional work. Whoever you are and wherever you’re from, you’ll find a place to belong and grow at VivCourt. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, cultures, genders, and abilities.
