About this position

This internship is a PhD hire in quantitative research at Susquehanna International Group in the New York/Philadelphia area, based in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania. The role places the student in a trading-oriented research environment where interns work on projects that mirror the work of full-time quantitative researchers.

The internship focuses on building and testing alpha-generating ideas for an actual trading strategy. Interns will apply probability theory, statistical analysis, and machine learning to model market behavior, then create execution approaches under simulated competition and evaluate ideas through historical backtesting. The program emphasizes both research depth and practical implementation, with exposure to multiple parts of Susquehanna’s business.

Students also participate in a comprehensive education program and receive personalized mentorship from experienced professionals at the firm. The advert highlights an open, collaborative environment that encourages work across teams and provides broad exposure to quantitative work.
