About this role
Verition is seeking a quantitative developer to join one of its trading teams in Dubai, working across the full technology stack that powers their multi-strategy hedge fund. You'll own Python development for data pipelines, research infrastructure, risk systems, and live trading platforms—working directly with traders, researchers, and the tech team to translate market insights into production code. The role spans data ingestion and integrity, feature engineering, machine learning model implementation, and post-trade analysis, giving you exposure to how a sophisticated quant operation actually runs.
The ideal candidate has 1–3 years of Python experience with data analysis and ML libraries, solid fundamentals in algorithms and object-oriented design, and ideally a STEM degree. Cloud experience (AWS or equivalent), C++ or Java, and familiarity with ML in trading contexts are valued but not required. You'll need strong analytical and communication skills to work effectively in a fast-paced environment where attention to detail and intellectual curiosity matter as much as technical ability. This is an in-office role in Dubai with a salary range of $100,000–$200,000 USD.
