Job Description
The Company
\n
This global investment management firm is expanding its New York office, building out a data science function structured around sector ownership. Data is not a support function here - data scientists work in direct dialogue with PMs and analysts, shaping investment decisions and questioning consensus. The firm pairs cutting-edge technology with rigorous scientific research, and its investment, technology and operations teams are aligned globally.
