Swissquant is an ETH-spinoff that does risk management calculations for private banks. In 2005 a law was introduced that all banks have to declare risks to their clients. Big banks solved this in-house, "small", private banks could not do it and so Swissquant was founded to solve their problem.
We have a solid and great engineering culture and quite some math/equities 'geeks' working for us. We are around 50 people in the heart of Zurich and our team-size is usually 2-8 people. We use vanilla Java, the newest version, if possible.
We have these roles opened:
- Technical Project Manager - You help a team succeed to find the right requirements for our core product.
- DevOps Engineers Maintenance & Services Team - you take care of quality and scalability. This is our youngest team and we have a lot to do here.
- Quant Engineer Private Banking Technologies - you do research on the math side.
- Data Scientist - You will generate insights based on client's needs.
- Core Modules Engineer - You will work on our well-tested Java 8 backend.
