What are the lesser known or smaller firms in the quant space that pay well? The realy good ones I have heard of are: TGS Management Headlands Technologies Radix Trading PDT Partners Ansatz Capital Boerboel Trading Spark Investment Management edit: from comments it seems XTX Markets is good Some other relativly good ones: Five Rings Capital Vatic Labs/Investments Aquatic capital management Edgestream Partners (Renaissance Tech spinoff) Evergreen Statistical Trading (super new Radix Trading spinoff startup) OMC Random Tiny firms(not necesarily as good/dont know): Ginkgo LLC Tanius Technology Dexterity Capital Nebula Research Athena Capital Research Linden Shore LLC Jocassee Quantitative Valkyrie Trading Firms that dont exist anymore: Town Square Trading Spot Trading SandiaPoint Are there any other firms known to be on the smaller end, higher performing, or just lesser known? Anyone know of any other firms? (Preferably nyc based?)
FTX is a good spot
FTX is an exchange not a quant firm. Alameda Research isn't operating anymore though
This age like fine milk , hahaha
Outside Ansatz sponsoring CppCon, nothing much is known about them including their PnL record. Can’t estimate how good they really are. I’d add XTX. They’re small and scary good at FX trading. Their US office is in NYC. Old Mission is another one. They’re very good. Latour used to be pretty good. They’re owned by Tower. No idea how good they’re now. PDT is relatively well known, so I don’t see the point of putting them in there. TGS is in a completely different league compared to all the others in the group. Don’t know much about Boerboel’d PnL record. They’re relatively newer.
Can you elaborate on XTX being "scary good" I have never seen anything on them on reddit or teamblind so I didn't know they were good or anything about them at all. Theyre also not hiring swe in their new york office for now is what they told me. As for Latour Trading, are htey
As for Latour Trading, are they their own entity? I can't find any website or anything, how can I get in touch with someone there?
Old Mission Capital in Chicago and XTX in London.
Both of them have NYC offices.
XTX isn't hiring swe or anything realted in their New York office though right?
3red
Is 3red partners good? What can you tell us about them?
Dev/quants seem to have pretty great pedigree. Pay is top tier. Firm seems to be doing well overall right now, but so is everyone these days lol
TD securities also has a new systematic fixed income pod acquired wholesale from headlands. Would imagine it's pretty high calibre

Do any of these do remote? I’ve always wanted to get into the quant world but living in NYC is not in the cards.
Welcome to Chicago or Amsterdam
