Job Description

We are looking for a Quantitative Data Scientist to join our Research and Development Team in Milan. This is a critical, high-impact hire designed to be the bridge between complex quantitative modeling and real-world financial application. The ideal candidate combines a strong financial intuition with a "hands-on" attitude. You will be responsible for translating business needs into technical solutions, ensuring our investment strategies are robust, scalable, and aligned with client expectations. You will serve as a key integrator across research, and investment functions, bringing order to innovation.

Job Responsibility

  • Critically evaluate ML model outputs to ensure alignment with financial theory and real-world market dynamics, while accounting for client-specific objectives, constraints, and investment frameworks
  • Translate research signals into actionable investment strategies and portfolio construction frameworks
  • Collaborate with ML researchers to refine models, incorporating financial domain expertise and contributing to model design where needed
  • Design, prototype, and scale quantitative models using Python and Java, maintaining a high standard for code quality and modularity
  • Contribute to the financial validation layer of the R&D cycle by developing and maintaining test frameworks that identify inconsistencies and support continuous model improvement
  • Translate complex portfolio objectives into rigorous, testable modeling specifications that bridge the gap between investment intent and algorithmic execution
  • Collaborate across technical workstreams to ensure research outputs are aligned with investment objectives and successfully integrated into production workflows

Requirements

  • Degree in Finance, Quantitative Finance, Financial Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field
  • Understanding of portfolio construction, asset allocation, and risk management
  • Solid Python/Java programming skills, with experience in financial modeling, data analysis, and working with ML-driven workflows
  • Experience interpreting, validating, or stress-testing quantitative or machine learning models (e.g., backtesting, scenario analysis, or model diagnostics)
  • Ability to bridge finance and technology: translate investment concepts into technical requirements and challenge model outputs using real-world financial intuition
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to communicate complex quantitative insights clearly to both technical and business stakeholders
  • Fluent in English (written and spoken)

Nice to have

  • Solid understanding of Git-based workflows (branching, code reviews, version control) in collaborative research or production environments
  • Experience leveraging LLMs and AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate prototyping, refactor code, and optimize algorithmic performance
  • Proven ability to thrive in high-pressure, collaborative environments, delivering precise results under tight market-driven or project deadlines
