  1. Are you an ex institutional/professional automated trader or quant researcher who wants to talk to a lot of institutional firms ?

    I am posting this on behalf of a New York startup that will revolutionize quantitative trading research. The firm is searching for a part-time inbound sales person (sales experience not needed) for incoming institutional sales and questions. Their cloud research platform rents institutional data to researchers resulting in an order-of-magnitude lower cost than buying. Data includes full-depth-book equities, OPRA, Futures, News (Machine readable), Earnings, etc.

    You will be working with institutional quant researchers/traders and need an understanding of market data and quant trading/research. The ideal candidate has at least 5 years of experience related to quant research/trading and market data. While some sales experience is beneficial, it is not a requirement.

    This job can be done remotely and the candidate will be working independently in setting his/her hours for scheduling. There are no live incoming phone calls to be answered.

    The firm consists of a select team which has been building the platform over the last year. The position, targeted towards large sales for institutions, is commission-based only in the initial stages. If you feel you are a qualified candidate, please PM me with your resume and a brief explanation of how your experience fits this position.

    Why post it here ? Because there are many lurkers who have interesting backgrounds that may be interested.

    What if I like idea and want to be a Platform tester ? PM me.
