Quant Developer / Quant Research Intern - 2026/2027

Job description

# **About Anthelion** Anthelion Capital is an investment and data science platform. We augment our fundamental investment core with data science to make investments across the capital structure. We are building a proprietary platform that runs the full investment lifecycle, from underwriting to portfolio management. # **What you'll do.** As an intern, you'll work directly with our quant team on a real piece of that platform. Build the systems a systematic investment platform runs on — from the inside. No prior finance, credit, or trading experience is required — we hire for quantitative and engineering ability and teach the domain. **What you might work on (matched to your strengths):** · Market or reference data ingestion with point-in-time correctness (no lookahead, as-of-date correct). · Building and validating a candidate factor or risk model on the emerging platform, with an emphasis on robustness and out-of-sample validity. · A piece of the research-to-production path — the tooling that promotes a signal to production by configuration rather than a rewrite. · A component of the backtesting / simulation engine, the feature/signal store, or the portfolio optimizer. # **We're looking for:** · Currently pursuing an undergrad, master's, or PhD in CS, math, statistics, physics, or a related quantitative field. · Strong programming ability in Python (C++, Rust, or another language is a plus). · Solid fundamentals in statistics and/or ML, and the instinct to be suspicious of results that look too good. · Evidence of building things and going deep — research, open source, competitive programming (ICPC/Codeforces), Kaggle, olympiads, or substantial personal projects. · Nice to have: exposure to markets/investing, data engineering, orchestration tools (Dagster/Prefect), or cloud (Azure). **Logistics:** 12-week onsite internship — Fall 2026 (September–November); Winter 2026 (December–February); or Summer 2027 (June–August). Open to students graduating December 2026 through Summer 2028; PhD candidates with later graduation dates are also considered. # **Additional Details:** **Compensation:** $1800 - $2000 per week depending on level of coursework. Strong interns are our primary source of full-time offers. **Location:** Onsite, Midtown, New York City **Other:** Must have US work authorization or ability to use OPT during the time of your internship.
