Working at Wintermute
We are looking for an Algorithmic Trader Intern with strong coding skills (Python) and a curiosity about HFT, market making and crypto trading. You will have the opportunity to work closely with very experienced traders and developers, including the founders/management team whilst working on some really exciting projects. You will get a lot of independence and responsibility right away, and you'll learn at an unprecedented speed! No legacy systems, no corporate bureaucracy, no multiple levels of approvals. It is up to you to make an impact.
What will you work on
The opportunity could involve: improving existing strategies and adding new trading products, as well as improving the technology behind the trading. You’ll need to analyse large amounts of trading and transaction data, generate insights, prioritise them and build solutions based on your findings. We will share more technical details in the interviews. The point is: there is no limit set by the company!
Note: we are looking for people with strong quantitative and coding skills, but this is a business/trading (not a Quant/ research) role first and foremost.
Hard Skills Requirements
- Strong Python skills - you have 1-3 years of experience coding in Python, be that through work, study or personal project experience - we will test!
- Excellent quantitative and analytical skills - we will test!
- Trading knowledge isn’t required but a strong willingness and curiosity to learn algorithmic, high-frequency, quantitative and market making trading is crucial. We will test you on your trading intuition.
Other Requirements
- Have an owner mentality - you focus on ultimate result (short and long-term P&L for the company), focus on strategically growing the business for the future vs “cashing-in” fast.
- Love problem solving, and love seeing your products work; you do whatever it takes to do what’s needed (trading, coding, analysing data, collaborating).
- Determined, ambitious yet humble, willing to work hard and learn on the way.
- Like meritocracy and being judged by what you deliver.
- Have an entrepreneurial mindset; prepared to work non-standard working hours (since we are a high-growth startup operating in 24/7 crypto world).
- Like working in a team environment.
Here is why you should join our dynamic team:
- Opportunity to work at one of the world's leading algorithmic trading firms.
- From day one, you’ll dive straight into high-impact projects, taking on real responsibility and ownership well beyond what’s typical in traditional finance internships.
- A vibrant working culture with team meals, festive celebrations, gaming events and company wide team building events.
- A Wintermute-inspired office in central London, featuring an array of amenities such as table tennis and foosball, personalized desk configurations, a cozy team breakout area with games.
- Great company culture: informal, non-hierarchical, ambitious, highly professional with a startup vibe, collaborative and entrepreneurial.
Note:
- Although we are unable to accept fully remote candidates, we support significant flexibility in regards to working from home and working hours.
- We are flexible with the timing and length of the internship, it could be anywhere from 1 month to 6 months - just let us know!
- Applicants must have the right to undertake an internship in the UK, either through citizenship or a valid student visa.
