Responsibilities
- Build and scale a standardized factor taxonomy (e.g., growth factors, acceleration/inflection factors, surprise/revision-type factors) across multiple proprietary datasets
- Collaborate with our quant research team to perform deep diligence on datasets and publish high-alpha signal research, translating raw research into repeatable, productized factor pipelines
- Take quant researcher signal research and collaborate with engineering partners to turn insights into repeatable, scalable factor computation and delivery pipelines
- Own the product-side accountability for ensuring factor pipelines are highly stable, accurate, and delivered on a consistent frequency

- Support pricing, packaging, and competitive positioning decisions for quant products in partnership with GTM teams

- Familiarity with alternative data (transaction data, web traffic, app data, email receipts, B2B spend, etc.) and how it's used in systematic strategies
- Comfort with Python, SQL, or similar tools for data exploration (you don't need to be a quant, but you should be able to dig into data)
