Beyond the work, we pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative and meritocratic structure where people are rewarded based on impact.

Training and development

As a quant, you will begin your career in the Quantitative Research Systematic Trading Program, which bridges the gap between academia and industry. You will gain insights into financial markets to ensure a well-rounded understanding of the industry. We teach you how to gather, analyze, and interpret financial data using internal data sets. This foundation prepares you to develop practical strategies for real-world application. Our trading floor serves as an unlimited source of discussion for learning and development.

What We Are Looking For

Susquehanna hires STEM Ph.D.s who are interested in applying their research, analysis, and development skills to the financial markets. Quantitative researchers develop the building blocks of trading strategies, requiring exceptional attention to detail and a relentless drive for deeper understanding. Quantitative systematic traders enhance and integrate the building blocks that our researchers develop to monetize strategies and manage risk. Both roles require skill in mathematics, statistics, and programing to aid in solving complex problems in our trading environment.
