Head of Technology - Hedge Fund - London

Attribution Search is partnering with a London based Hedge Fund looking to hire a Head of Technology into its growing technology department.

This person will lead the build out of the technology function, largely from the ground up. While the Infrastructure is outsourced, this person will lead the development of the entire internal platform. This will include trading and portfolio data flows, analytics and risk applications, research tooling, operational systems, and more!

There will also be scope to build a team as the fund scales further.

Responsibilities and Requirements:

• Hands on with Python and SQL is essential. Any other languages are beneficial (C# / Java)
• Partner with internal and external stakeholders to define priorities and timelines.
• Lead the AI initiative for the firm, in terms of research, engineering, and investment.
• Prior experience building out a tech function would be highly desirable.

This is not an oversight role, this hire will be hands on from day one. You will need to be happy getting your hands dirty, and prioritising less glamourous aspects of building the tech function.

If you're a Senior Engineer looking to have full ownership of the technology function of one of London's fastest growing hedge funds, apply to find out more!
