Dear CompSoc Jobs,
Please would you forward the following advert to your members.
Many thanks,
Alex.
*Part-time software developer wanted*
I'm looking for a student with excellent c# skills to help me write some
code on a part-time and/or holiday basis. I'm launching a systematic/quant
hedge fund and the role would involve helping me develop software that will
form the core of the fund's operation such as position keeping, trading
signal generation, broker connectivity via API, building simulation
environment, statistical tests etc. The style of development will be OO and
fairly agile. No financial experience is necessary but previous experience
writing mult-threaded applications would be extremely useful.
I can offer modest payment and great experience for someone wanting to
enter banking and finance and gain some insight into how a hedge fund
really works. Salary and hours are negotiable and can be on a
project-by-project or continuous part-time basis. Given the nature of the
role, there's no real geographic constraint however proximity to London
would be a bonus (so that we can occasionally meet in person). This also
has the potential to lead to a permanent role in the future.
I've been involved in the hedge fund industry as a quant since graduating
from Cambridge University (MMath) and was recently involved in a recent
successful hedge fund launch. I'm now looking to launch a fund by myself
and need some additional programmer resource as my time is coming under
increasing pressure. Happy to provide my CV or to discuss further (07891
124 914).
