•    Support daily Investment Operations workflows
•    Support any ad-hoc projects as needed 

Requirements

•    Currently studying towards an undergraduate (at least 4 semesters completed) or graduate-level degree or recent graduate in a Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, Financial Engineering, Quantitative Finance, or a related technical or business discipline
•    Hands-on experience using AI assistants (such as Claude or Microsoft Copilot) to solve real problems; familiarity with prompt engineering and building reusable prompts or skills; any exposure to model APIs or agentic workflows is a plus
•    Good analytical and problem-solving skills
•    Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel (Power Query and basic VBA or macros)
•    Good communication and interpersonal skills
•    Ability to work independently and as part of a team
•    Good organizational skills with the ability to prioritize tasks and meet deadlines
•    General awareness of how business systems connect (APIs, file feeds, databases)
•    Strong interest in financial markets; prior exposure to derivatives, hedge fund operations, or investment management systems (PMS / OMS) is a plus but not required
