Voleon is a technology company that applies state-of-the-art machine-learning techniques to real-world problems in finance. We have led our industry for over a decade and worked at the frontier of applying machine learning to investment management. We have become a multibillion-dollar asset manager, and we have ambitious goals for the future.

 

Your colleagues will include internationally recognized experts in machine learning research as well as highly experienced technology and finance professionals. The people who shape our company come from other backgrounds, including concert music performance, humanitarian aid, opera singing, sports writing, and BMX racing. You will be part of a team that loves to succeed together.

 

In addition to our enriching and collegial working environment, we offer highly competitive compensation and benefits packages, technology talks by our experts, a beautiful modern office, daily catered lunches, and more.

Founded in 2007 by two leading scientists (see management bios), Voleon supports a culture of curiosity and creativity. We do not silo our teams, and you will enjoy a healthy work-life balance while tackling complex problems in a collegial environment. This role makes a difference: as a machine learning company, data insights are essential to our business.  

Over the last few years, the Voleon Group has formed a new team to help advance our data-driven investment initiatives. As a Senior Data Scientist, you will be responsible for harvesting insights from a complex array of data and mentoring the efforts of more junior Data Scientists doing the same. Your role will involve designing systems and directing technical efforts in data curation, analysis, interpretation, and visualization, as well as communicating your findings to members of the research staff and executive leadership. This role is a means to make a difference: as a machine learning company, data insights are essential to our business.
