About the Role:

We build predictive models from big data and develop algorithms to automatically execute trades in dozens of financial exchanges around the world.

At Jump you will have the opportunity to contribute in a blend of three roles – quant researcher / data scientist, trader, and software developer – based on your incoming skills and background, interest and curiosity, and the new skills and industry knowledge that you will learn at Jump.

Our 10-week internship program begins with a training program focused on enhancing your knowledge of trading, programming, and quant research. The training consists of in-house courses and trading simulation developed and delivered by experienced quant researchers, traders, and developers. We have experts from around the firm who will teach you advanced skills in a variety of areas such as Machine Learning, Trading / Market Mechanics, Statistics, R, Python, C++, and our research process.

You will later be coached to successfully apply those skills during rotations with trading teams and research projects with mentorship from experienced quants/traders. You will help build predictive models, leveraging one of the largest supercomputers in the world, and devise automated trading strategies to test in the markets against world-class competition. Other duties as assigned or needed.
