Quantitative Researcher (Fully Remote)

About OctoHorizon At OctoHorizon, we are pioneering advanced algorithmic strategies in the world of high-frequency trading (HFT). Our team of quantitative researchers and engineers pushes the boundaries of digital exchange trading through mathematical precision, cutting-edge infrastructure, and speed-focused innovation. We specialize in identifying ultra-short-term inefficiencies across markets by combining deep quantitative research with high-performance technology. We offer a flexible, fully-remote environment built on merit, autonomy, and excellence — empowering top talent around the globe to contribute meaningfully to real-world trading strategies. Role Overview We are seeking an exceptional Quantitative Researcher to design, test, and deploy alpha-generating strategies across high-frequency trading environments. In this role, you will analyze microstructure data, build short-horizon predictive models, and collaborate with engineers to implement low-latency strategies on live markets. You will be expected to think rigorously, iterate quickly, and adapt strategies to ever-evolving market conditions. This is a fully remote position, open to candidates globally. We prioritize results and innovation over location and time zones. Responsibilities Research and develop high-frequency, alpha-generating trading strategies. Analyze order book and tick-by-tick market data for patterns and anomalies. Model price dynamics, liquidity, and volatility on sub-second horizons. Design, implement, and backtest strategies with realistic execution constraints. Collaborate with engineering to deploy models in production systems with low-latency requirements. Evaluate strategy performance in live markets; diagnose and resolve anomalies. Create tools for real-time monitoring, feature generation, and data analytics. Continuously optimize for execution speed, model robustness, and scalability. Required Skills & Experience Advanced degree (MSc/PhD) in a quantitative field (Mathematic
