The quant approach to investing is on the rise, again. This time round, the adoption of quant techniques, to find and bring investment ideas to market, is no longer the domain of the most sophisticated Hedge Funds. Big asset managers are also introducing these techniques to complement more traditional processes. This is an interesting time in finance, with more data available, more computing power and advanced techniques becoming accessible and familiar to a new generation of investors. You can join us at the forefront of this trend, by building the next-generation of client-facing languages and APIs to our content and analytics.
Our platform combines the best of open-source technologies, and the world's leading financial database and analytics service. You will enable our users to manipulate more data, more quickly, more intuitively. You will do this by leveraging your knowledge of client data and analytics workflows.
