Description

The application deadline for this position is October 20, 2024.

At HRT we believe that by celebrating our differences, promoting equity, and fostering a sense of belonging, we will drive innovation, enhance decision-making, and build the future of trading — together.  To do so, HRT is committed to creating opportunities for underrepresented groups, and we’re thrilled to provide a focused internship experience for women+ and nonbinary students interested in the work we do. While people of all identities are welcome to apply, this particular experience is intended to create a space for women+ and nonbinary students to explore the quantitative trading industry.

Our Women in Trading Technology Internship (WITTI) is an informative 2-4 week exploration into quantitative trading for students who are curious but unfamiliar with the industry. Through this program, you can expect:

  • An introduction to a wide range of technical facets of the algorithmic trading industry
  • Hands-on independent programming projects in Python and C++ 
  • A chance to learn about both software engineering and algorithm development (quantitative research) at HRT
  • Tech talks and seminars
  • A variety of social and networking events that explore all that New York City has to offer 

This program begins on January 6, 2025. The duration of the program is flexible based on your university’s winter break schedule (either two, three, or four weeks). This is an in-person program and will take place in our New York City office.

Requirements

  • You are a full-time undergraduate student graduating between fall 2026 and summer 2027 in a technical or quantitative discipline (math, physics, computer science, statistics, or a related program) 
  • Demonstrated experience in programming; familiarity with C, C++, Python, and/or Rust is preferred 
  • A passion for technology and excitement for learning something new
  • Exceptional problem solving skills
  • Strong communication skills

This program is specifically offered for individuals without extensive experience in the quantitative finance industry. If you already have relevant internship experience — please apply to one of our summer programs! 

Weekly base salary of $4,800 in addition to company-paid housing, meals, and other perks.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
