Senior Software Engineer, Simulation Engineering

Voleon is a technology company that applies state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to real-world problems in finance. For more than a decade, we have led our industry and worked at the frontier of applying machine learning to investment management. We have become a multibillion-dollar asset manager, and we have ambitious goals for the future. 

As a Senior Software Engineer on our Simulation and Portfolio Engineering team, you will contribute to our simulator, which is used across the company to evaluate and back-test research ideas. This includes various efforts ranging from realizing the maximal performance of the simulator, improving our ability to run thousands of simulations in parallel and at scale, and supporting/evaluating nascent research efforts. 

You will work with our Product Owner for Simulation Engineering to design, scope, and deliver large scale projects within the team. You will collaborate closely both with a diverse group of engineers across multiple teams and with stakeholders on research teams to contribute to a simulation platform that supports a diverse set of requirements and complex trading behaviors.

Over time, you will help defining the team's technical roadmap towards achieving strategic-level engineering goals, and participate in mentorship and development of other engineers on the team, and shaping our company's engineering culture.

We look for brilliant people with a passion for solving problems through innovation and engineering fundamentals. You’ll work in a collaborative environment that encourages creative thinking and efficient implementation. We embrace experimentation. You’ll work alongside experienced engineers recruited from leading technology companies and selected from the sharpest minds at university programs. As one of the most research-adjacent teams in the company, you and your team will collaborate closely with top machine learning researchers.
