Co-founder and head of technology and security at a fintech.

----

WE ARE HIRING: Data, software, and systems engineers, especially with strong math, regulated or financial services backgrounds.

Expertise with functional programming and/or formal reasoning is a strong plus, as well as ability to dust off some linear algebra and differential equations, calculus (including differential, integral and stochastic), and probability and statistics.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_analysis_(finance)

If you math, you see data flows as living systems, and you grok systems as manifestations of code, you’ve probably got the job.

ABOUT US (AND YOU):

ClearAlpha Technologies LP is a rapidly growing alternative investment manager based in Greenwich CT that is reshaping the market for alpha. We're different by design; bringing together the flat, nimble, collaborative culture of a startup with decades of industry experience in senior leadership roles at the world's top hedge funds, banks, and technology businesses: AQR, Bridgewater, Goldman Sachs, Citadel and more.

At ClearAlpha, we're obsessive about outcomes and we give each other the trust and flexibility we all need to deliver. No micro-management, no unnecessary bureaucracy, and no old-fashioned hierarchies. Everyone in our team is dedicated to mastering their craft at the very highest level. From our investment teams to our technologists, we work side-by-side in cross-functional teams to deliver the best results for our clients and their end-constituents. Empowered by the very latest and best cloud-native technologies, everyone at ClearAlpha has the data and tools we need to deliver those results without friction.

We're looking for the right people to throw themselves into shaping the space with us and driving it forward. If you're ready and excited by that challenge, we look forward to meeting you.
