Quantitative Researcher

at the intersection of unique data sets and new business problems is the dream of every data scientist. I am very fortunate to lead a team who have this opportunity every day, as we work to develop novel data science tools and processes that can directly support Two Sigma's diverse businesses. From real estate, to private equity, and venture capital, the data is incredibly diverse, and we work with partners to identify how data-driven decision making can create a long-term competitive advantage.Data ScientistMy team looks at how text-based data like the news can impact the markets. We get to tackle challenging, unstructured problems in creative ways, and I find the open-endedness to be incredibly exciting.Quantitative ResearcherAs a Quantitative Researcher, I leverage real world data to solve some of the most interesting problems in the investment management space. Two Sigma's scientific approach contributes to a very engaging and stimulating work
environment while collaborating with some of the most kind and talented people I know helps fast-track my growth as a researcher and scientist.Quantitative ResearcherCuriosity plays a big role in modeling at Two Sigma - we're always developing new areas of research, exploring the relationship between a conceptual hypothesis, and the structured, quantitative representation of that idea with the firm's vast data holdings. Each research question we encounter presents new and exciting challenges, both abstract and pragmatic. It's a really satisfying process, finding an idea in an academic paper or a newspaper article, and turning it into a signal.Data ScientistTwo Sigma's culture of learning has its roots in our employees' deep ties to academia.Interested in partnering with Two Sigma to apply research to real-world problems?Our collaborations take many forms from fellowships to data sharing.
