About the role
Evaluate AI-generated quantitative research and systematic trading strategies for fixed-income and interest-rate markets, assessing their statistical rigor, assumptions, implementation, and backtesting methods. Identify methodological weaknesses and assess strategies under realistic transaction cost and liquidity constraints, providing detailed written feedback to improve evaluation methods. Candidates need quantitative research experience and expertise in fixed-income or rates markets, including experience building and backtesting systematic interest-rate strategies. They must be proficient in Python or R and understand yield curve modeling, carry and roll-down, relative value trading, rates instruments, statistical methods, and real-world trading constraints.
