Member of Research Staff, Reinforcement Learning, Voleon Securities

Voleon Securities, a new business within the Voleon Group, provides liquidity in securities markets. We apply state-of-the-art AI/ML techniques to construct our liquidity-provision strategies. For nearly two decades, our affiliate Voleon Capital Management has led the hedge fund industry and worked at the frontier of applying AI/ML to investment management, becoming a multibillion-dollar asset manager. Voleon Securities builds on Voleon’s deep real-world experience applying ML to financial markets.

Voleon Securities is looking to add an experienced and creative reinforcement learning researcher to our growing ML research group. We welcome researchers with both strong theoretical foundations and experience developing and scaling RL in industrial settings. Financial applications of RL are challenging and demand new methods that go beyond the academic state-of-the-art; it is critical candidates have a deep understanding of the field to draw inspiration for new methodology.

This is a chance to join the initial buildout of a fully modern securities business rooted in the frontier of AI/ML and statistics. Your colleagues will include internationally recognized experts in artificial intelligence and machine learning research as well as highly experienced finance and technology professionals.
