Senior Research Executive / Manager Research (Quantitative)

NK Securities

Gurugram
 
Why This Role Exists
 
NK Securities is building a research-driven trading platform where models, not opinions, drive decisions. We are hiring PhD-level researchers to work on pricing models, market microstructure, and machine-learning-driven alpha that directly impact live trading systems.
 
This is not a sandbox role. Your work will move capital, trade markets, and be evaluated in production.
 
If you enjoy: 
Turning theory into models that survive noisy, non-stationary data
 Seeing your research deployed and stress-tested in real markets
 Working end-to-end—from idea to impact
 
,this role is designed for you.
 
What You’ll Work On
 
You will operate as a research owner, not a support function.
 
Research & Modeling
 
Design pricing and fair-value models at short horizons
 Model order-book dynamics, liquidity, impact, and micro-price behavior
 Research alpha signals using statistical learning and ML/AI methods
 Develop models robust to regime shifts, feedback loops, and adversarial noise
 
Machine Learning & AI
 
Apply machine learning and modern AI techniques to high-frequency market data
 Explore deep learning, representation learning, and sequence models where justified
 Balance interpretability, robustness, and predictive power
 Build models that generalize—not just optimize backtests
 
From Research to Production
 
Run large-scale experiments and rigorous backtesting
 Define validation criteria, failure modes, and monitoring metrics
 Partner with engineers and traders to deploy models into live systems
 Continuously iterate based on real performance feedback
 
Model Classes You’ll Encounter
 
You don’t need to know everything—but you should be excited to learn and extend:
 
Pricing & Microstructure
 
Fair-value and micro-price models
 Order-flow and liquidity models
 Spread, impact, and short-horizon price dynamics
 
Statistical Models
 
Time-series and state-space models
 Volatility and correlation structures
 Signal decay and stability modeling
 
ML / AI Models
 
Feature-based ML for alpha discovery
 Representation learning for structured market data
 Deep learning models used selectively and critically
 
Who We’re Looking For
 
Education
 
PhD (completed or near completion) in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Operations Research, or related fields
 Strong research pedigree and demonstrated ability to solve open-ended problems
 
Research Strength
 
Deep understanding of probability, statistics, and linear algebra
 Ability to translate abstract ideas into testable, empirical models
 Comfort reasoning under uncertainty and imperfect data
 Evidence of original thinking (papers, thesis work, significant projects)
 
Technical Skills
 
Strong Python for research and experimentation
 Experience with ML / AI frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow)
 Comfort working with large datasets and computational experiments
 Exposure to C++ or performance-oriented systems is a plus, not a requirement
