About the role
Description supplied by the original job listing.
A leading quantitative investment firm is looking for a senior alpha producer to join its India office as Co-Head of Quantitative Research.
This is a player-coach role for a proven quantitative researcher with a demonstrated ability to generate profitable, scalable equity & derivatives alpha and directly contribute to live trading P&L.
The mandate is straightforward: increase alpha production while helping scale and elevate the India research platform.
What you'll do
• Co-lead the India Quant Research function alongside the current India Head of Research
• Remain hands-on in alpha generation — this is not a pure people-management role
• Independently originate, validate and deploy profitable systematic signals
• Generate differentiated, robust and scalable equity & derivatives alpha
• Contribute directly to live trading P&L
• Drive rigorous research standards, reproducibility and structured research reviews
• Improve existing strategies through better modelling, data and signal construction
• Ensure strong out-of-sample validation and mitigate overfitting
• Shape research themes, priorities and the platform's research roadmap
• Mentor researchers and help build a high-quality research team without compromising the hiring bar or alpha quality.
What they're looking for
• 5+ years of systematic equity and derivatives alpha research experience
• BS/MS/PhD in a STEM discipline
• Proven track record of developing profitable, statistically robust signals
• Direct experience contributing to live trading P&L
• $20M+ attributable P&L generated through strategies you've developed
• Strong understanding of signal decay, capacity, risk controls and overfitting
• Strong programming and quantitative research infrastructure skills
• Someone who remains a researcher first, while being capable of taking on broader leadership responsibility
Compensation & Benefits
• Competitive compensation
• Performance-linked bonus tied to the algorithms you develop
• Opportunity to influence research direction and lead new ideas
• Collaborative environment with significant decision-making responsibility
• Comprehensive healthcare and insurance benefits
