Shape the future of pricing analytics in the heart of Paris.  

We are looking for a hands-on Quant Lead to join our Paris-based team. This is not a traditional management role—you will lead a small squad of senior/expert quants while remaining actively involved in research, development, and implementation of pricing models. You will set technical direction, unblock complex challenges, and ensure models are delivered to production quality.  

What You’ll Do  

• Lead a team of 3 senior/expert quants, providing guidance and technical support  

• Research, design, and implement pricing models and payoffs  

• Deliver production-grade implementations used by clients  

• Make technical decisions independently to ensure correct, robust, and efficient models  

• Develop fast, stable, and scalable algorithms  

• Own the full lifecycle: mathematical formulation → implementation → delivery  

• Contribute to team structure, knowledge sharing, and methodological standards  

What We’re Looking For  

• 7–8+ years’ experience in quantitative finance  

• Strong knowledge of pricing models and payoffs  

• Proven hands-on experience implementing pricing models (not just validation)  

• Experience in Interest Rates or FX (one required; Equity is a plus)  

• Ability to lead and challenge senior/expert quants in a small, high-responsibility team  

• Coding experience in any language (Python a plus, but not mandatory)  

• Stochastic calculus, numerical methods, and derivative pricing models  

• Degree in mathematics, finance, physics, engineering, or equivalent  

• Fluent French (team based in Paris)  

Why Join Us  

• Lead a high-calibre quant squad with significant technical autonomy  

• Work on impactful, production-level models across key asset classes  

• Collaborate in a technically rigorous, intellectually stimulating environment  

• Contribute to shaping the methodology and standards of the quant team  

• Live and work in Paris with a strong work-life balance
