  • A minimum of 5 years of experience in portfolio management, preferably within a hedge fund.
  • Proficiency in programming skills, advanced quantitative methods for analyzing large data sets and pattern identification, as well as portfolio construction methodologies.
  • Demonstrated expertise in the asset classes utilized in the strategy, with the ability to build a front-to-back systematic investment framework with minimal regular human intervention.
  • Humility and the capacity to thrive in a highly collaborative global team, with a strong desire to learn from and alongside other investors.
  • Unwavering commitment to the highest standards of ethics and integrity.
  • Exceptional decision-making abilities, capable of performing well under pressure.

Application Instructions:
