Do you want to tackle the biggest questions in finance with near infinite compute power at your fingertips?
G-Research is a leading quantitative research and technology firm, with offices in London and Dallas. We are proud to employ some of the best people in their field and to nurture their talent in a progressive, adaptable and highly stimulating culture where world-beating ideas are cultivated and rewarded.
This role is based in our new Soho Place office – opened in 2023 - in the heart of Central London and home to our Research Lab.
The role
Our full-time ML researchers use a wide range of tools and techniques in an applied setting, putting their expertise to use in direct, production-ready applications with immediate results. They have access to vast computing resources and are limited only by their imagination.
As an ML intern, you will have the opportunity to experience some of this as part of a 10-week programme working on a meaningful and challenging research project that demands the application of innovative yet pragmatic mathematical and computational analysis.
You will be paired with a mentor who will supervise your work and provide ongoing feedback to help you improve and develop, as well as access to senior staff who are leaders in their fields. Your internship will culminate in a final presentation of your research ideas to senior management.
Taking part in G-Research's Summer Internship Programme will give you an in-depth insight into our academic approach to the world of quantitative finance and allow you to explore the thriving city of London, while you get to know your fellow interns and colleagues through a full itinerary of fun social events.
Top performers on the programme will be considered for full-time opportunities on completion of their studies.
Who are we looking for?
The ideal candidate will, at a minimum, have experience in the following areas:
