About The Role
As a Data Scientist focusing on Quantitative Trading NLP, you will leverage natural language understanding techniques such as sentiment analysis, intent recognition, and named-entity extraction on financial news, social media, and other text streams to develop and refine algorithmic trading strategies.
You’ll design and implement machine-learning models in Python, apply advanced mathematical and time-series analysis to uncover predictive signals, and rigorously backtest and optimize strategies to maximize returns while managing risk. Collaboration and clear communication across data science and trading teams are key to iteratively improving model performance and driving data-informed investment decisions.
