  • Equity swaps
  • Metals
  • Energy derivatives
  • Convertible bonds

Technical Development:
  • Lead the build out and integration of Python-based quantitative libraries to support model development and validation activities.
  • Produce robust prototype models and partner with technology teams to transition them into production.
  • Utilize generative AI development tools (e.g., Copilot) to increase coding efficiency and automation.
  • Collaborate on database queries using strong SQL expertise.

Cross Functional Collaboration:
  • Communicate clearly with model owners, business partners, technology teams, auditors, and project managers.
  • Help translate business requirements into quant/model specifications and documentation.
  • Provide coaching and technical guidance to junior team members on both modeling and cross margin concepts.

Operational Readiness:
  • Respond quickly to urgent model requests driven by high-impact cross margin exposures in the CIB business.
  • Ensure timely delivery of model enhancements, documentation, and validations.

Required Technical Skills:
  • Python (expert level) ability to build, structure, and maintain quant libraries.
  • Experience using AI-assisted coding tools (Copilot or similar).
  • SQL expertise ability to query and manipulate large datasets.
  • Strong numerical skills and experience with stochastic modeling and capital markets models.

Required Quantitative Skills:
  • Ability to derive mathematical formulas and implement them programmatically.
  • Strong understanding of cross margining concepts in prime brokerage or derivatives clearing.
  • Ability to identify and correct model gaps, inconsistencies, or legacy issues.
  • Solid foundation in probability, statistics, and stochastic processes.

Skill Weighting:
  • Cross margin expertise: ~50%
  • Mathematics/modeling: ~30%
  • Coding (Python/SQL): ~20%

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience in prime brokerage or margin methodology design.
  • Prior work with counterparty credit exposure models (e.g., PFE, EE, EAD).
  • Familiarity with equities, commodities, energy, and structured derivative products.
  • Candidates located in Charlotte are strongly preferred; two existing team members are based here.
