What are the responsibilities and job description for the Data Scientist position at Susquehanna International Group?
Overview
As a Statistical Data Scientist on our Quantitative Research team you will be engaged in challenging problems driven by the interests and needs of the business. You will work with massive, raw data sets and will produce regular, periodic reports used throughout the firm as well as ad-hoc studies. You will need to produce results that are comprehensive but at the same time call attention to the key features that our business can act on.

Who We Are
SIG is a global quantitative trading firm founded with an entrepreneurial mindset and a rigorous analytical approach to decision making. We commit our own capital to trade financial products around the world. Building virtually all of our own trading technology from scratch, we are leaders and innovators in high performance, low latency trading. Our traders, quants, developers, and systems engineers work side by side to develop and implement our trading strategies. With experts in almost every discipline, we build some of the most powerful trading systems in the financial industry.
SIG Statistical Data Scientists Are :
- Creative, quantitative problem solvers - they are able to identify opportunities in the market through in depth analysis of data sets big or small.
- Strong programmers – whether that be in formal and even informal settings.
- Interested in the financial markets. While previous financial experience is a plus, it’s not required. In fact, most of our team did not have that experience when they joined. We can teach you the finance (in fact, we would love to!).
- Curious – our quants are intrigued by complex problems and interesting questions; they look for creative ways to work with data and identify potential trading signals amongst the noise.
- Great communicators.
