Quant Macro Analyst
Quantitative Macro Analyst
Location: Singapore
We are hiring a world-class Quantitative Analyst to join a lean, high-performing macro team. This is a rare opportunity to work directly with a Portfolio Manager who brings over 15 years of consistent alpha generation in the buyside space. The role offers steep learning, accelerated career progression, and deep involvement in both systematic and discretionary macro strategies.
The Role
In the first phase, you'll act as a technical backbone to the PM-building tools, automating workflows, and maintaining research infrastructure. You'll help translate investment ideas into robust systems and ensure seamless strategy execution.
Initial Responsibilities:
Build and maintain analytical tools and dashboards to support trading decisions
Automate research, execution, and data pipelines
Maintain and evolve infrastructure for systematic and discretionary macro strategies
Over time (typically 1-2 years), high-performing candidates will be expected to step up into deeper research and strategy ownership, including:
Growth Path:
Designing and testing macro strategies (semi- or fully systematic)
Assisting with live portfolio management, risk monitoring, and signal refinement
This is not a siloed research role-you'll sit close to the PM and be embedded in the daily rhythm of macro trading.
What We're Looking For
This role is designed for elite thinkers who combine technical fluency with intellectual rigor. You might be early in your career-but you've already shown signs that you're in the top 1%.
You likely have:
Exceptional quantitative ability-e.g., Math Olympiad medalist, IMO-level problem solver, or a top scorer in national/international quantitative competitions
0-5 years of relevant experience; outstanding fresh graduates from top-tier quantitative programs are welcome
Proficiency in Python (or similar), and fluency in building and maintaining robust, production-level code
Strong interest in macro markets (FX and rates in particular); prior exposure to hedge funds or strategy research is a plus, but open to someone with equities experience
