About Five Rings Five Rings is a proprietary trading firm founded with a vision of combining strategy, innovation and technology to succeed in today's global markets. With offices in New York, Boca Raton, London and Amsterdam, Five Rings trades in various domestic and international markets, both established and esoteric. Our team constantly seeks new opportunities, analyzes their risks and rewards, and creates strategies and tools to capitalize on them. We have an open culture and encourage the flow of knowledge and ideas between all areas of the firm. About the Role Our Quantitative Traders manage their unique strategies in rapidly evolving live markets. They tune model parameters to reflect prevailing conditions, execute trades based on model recommendations, evaluate the real-time feedback provided by market participants' reactions, and reincorporate this information into their models in a continuous feedback loop. Five Rings gives people as much responsibility as quickly as it can be earned. From day one, as a new Quantitative Trader (QT), you will gain unrivaled experience both on the desk and in the classroom. New hires work closely with junior and senior traders alike - analyzing risks and rewards, exploring new strategies, and collaborating with quants and software developers to build and optimize trading models. Our traders work both independently and collaboratively to develop ideas and analyses, and integrate them into our trading strategies and systems. About You
