I’m a quantitative researcher at Ubiquant, one of China’s leading private quant firms, managing over 55 billion RMB. Before my industrial career, I completed my PhD in Computer Science at Peking University, under the supervision of Prof. Ming Zhang in 2021. I worked with Prof. Jian Tang at Mila during Sept. 2018 - Sept. 2019.
Hiring
I’m actively looking for highly motivated and talented individuals to join our team as interns or full-time quantitative researchers. Candidates who have strong background in deep learning, NLP, CV or quantitative analysis can email me directly.
