Quant Developer Intern

The Role: We are looking for a Quant Developer Intern to join the Book Platform and Operations Team team. This is an ideal opportunity for a technically strong student who enjoys solving real problems and wants hands-on exposure to systems that directly support portfolio management operations.

You will work alongside expert developers and portfolio managers, contributing to systems, interfaces, and tools used in day-to-day portfolio management workflows. We value clear thinking, strong fundamentals, and a proactive attitude — we don't expect prior industry experience, but we do expect you to think rigorously and pick things up fast.

Strong performers will be considered for a full-time Quant Developer role upon graduation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist in the design, development, and maintenance of systems, interfaces, and tools that support portfolio management workflows, under the guidance of senior developers
• Work with developers and portfolio managers to understand requirements for well-scoped tasks and features
• Help identify, investigate, and resolve issues in existing tools and infrastructure
• Assist with monitoring production systems and support incident response as part of a team
• Participate in code reviews, write tests, and contribute to technical documentation
• Learn and apply modern development tools and practices, including how the team uses LLM-assisted workflows

What You’ll Bring:

Technical

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
• Solid coursework or project experience in Python and/or C++
• Basic familiarity with Bash scripting and Linux environments
• Familiarity with version control systems such as Git

Approach & Working Style

• Strong analytical and logical thinking — you approach problems methodically and don't give up easily
• Meticulous, with genuine care about the quality of your own work
• Proactive and curious — willing to dig into a problem before asking for help, but not afraid to ask good questions
• Able to manage a well-defined task with reasonable independence, with support and guidance readily available
• Ability to learn quickly and adapt to new tools, codebases, and systems
• Effective and concise communicator in English, both written and verbal

Ways of Working

• Comfortable using Claude or other LLM tools as part of your development workflow — for debugging, learning unfamiliar code, and drafting documentation
• Uses LLM tools with judgment — treats them as an aid to thinking, not a substitute for it
• Willing to learn how the team applies LLM-assisted workflows and bring that mindset to your own work

Internship details

Internship availability - at least 4 months, starting January 2026. Opportunity to convert to a full-time role based on performance.

What We Offer:

• Direct exposure to real portfolio management systems and workflows
• A collaborative team where your contributions are visible and valued
• Opportunity to grow quickly in a technically demanding and intellectually stimulating environment
