- Have excellent skills in quantitative modeling (e.g., statistics, econometrics, applied mathematics, physics)
- Have great programming skills, preferably in Python
- Are based in or willing to relocate to Austin and work from our US based office
Personal skills – we expect that you:

A people-first culture
We value a strong social community with frequent events outside the office. The work culture is relaxed; you don’t have to abide by a dress code or a strict hierarchy, so you won’t be frustrated with too many rules, policies, or bureaucratic processes.
Our core values - honesty, transparency, and rethinking - are fundamental to how we engage with each other.
