About the Program
Our 10-week Summer Internship Program pairs you with a platform team where you'll take on real, high-impact work, while getting a structured, firm-wide view of how a global multi-strategy hedge fund operates. You'll work alongside experienced professionals, partner with your fellow interns on cross-functional projects, and present your work directly to senior leaders by the end of the summer.

- Contribute to strategic projects that extend beyond your day-to-day team responsibilities.
- Leverage AI tools to contribute meaningful work from day one.
- Compete in a trading simulation with the full intern class to build foundational markets knowledge.
- Present your work and ideas at various points throughout the program.
What You'll Experience

- A speaker series featuring firm leaders across investment and platform teams.
- A series of professional development, social events and volunteer opportunities with your intern class.
Qualifications
