- Deep familiarity with quantitative methods such as stochastic modeling, derivatives pricing, econometrics, risk modeling, or computational finance
- Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills, with the ability to spot subtle errors in quantitative reasoning
- Fluent written English and the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly
Nice to Have
- Research experience (academic or industry, including buy-side or sell-side quant roles)
- Prior experience with data annotation or AI model evaluation
- Experience reviewing or publishing research papers
