This position requires strong derivative pricing skills along with relevant industry experience.

Strong derivative pricing skills a must (Risk neutral pricing, stochastic calculus, numerical techniques (finite differences, Montecarlo simulation, binomial/Trinomial Trees, Numerical integration), coding in C++/python).
