Teza 2026 "Quantitative Research" Internship

Teza is seeking aspiring quantitative researchers for our 10-12 week summer internship program (June - August 2026) across our London, Munich, and Yerevan offices.

To apply, you will submit a trading idea alongside with your resume (trading idea requirements are visible in application form once you click the apply button).
This serves as your application - it demonstrates how you think about markets, how you approach research, and helps us match you to the right investment group at Teza. You may work on this idea during your internship, or you may work on something entirely different alongside our teams. What matters is the quality of thinking it reveals as well as your passion about quantitative trading.

In late July, all interns convene in Germany for our week-long global investment conference - an intensive forum where our teams worldwide present research, debate markets, and advance our collective understanding of quantitative trading.

We seek applications from either individuals or small teams (up to 4 members) who can formulate and articulate a concrete trading hypothesis. Your application should demonstrate technical capability, market intuition, and intellectual rigor.

Duration: 10-12 weeks (June - August 2026)
Locations: London, Munich, or Yerevan
Compensation: Paid internship
Investment Conference: One week in late July - all travel, accommodation, and expenses covered by Teza.

You will work embedded within one of our investment groups, conducting quantitative research alongside portfolio managers and researchers. The work may relate to your application idea or may be determined by the team's current research priorities.

During the Munich conference, you will:

• Present your research to your Mentor and the CIO

• Attend technical lectures from our senior researchers

• Participate in investment discussions across asset classes

• Meet investment and technology professionals from our global offices

1. Application submission: Research proposal deadline is April 15, 2026, however early applications are encouraged

2. Investment team review: Proposals evaluated for market logic, technical feasibility, and research potential

3. Interview stage: Selected candidates meet with Teza team members (two-round process)

4. Decision: Final confirmations sent within weeks of submission

Visa & Travel Support:
We provide full support for the Munich conference (visa assistance, flights, accommodation). For your primary office location, you are responsible for all arrangements.

Team Applications:
Teams welcome (maximum 4 members). Each participant must have a clearly defined role and contribution.

Prior Experience:
No algorithmic trading experience required. We seek strong analytical and programming skills, intellectual curiosity, and conviction in markets.

• Undergraduate or graduate study in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, or related quantitative field

• Proficiency in Python, Java, or C++

• Working knowledge of statistics, linear algebra, and optimization

• Rigorous, detail-oriented approach to problem-solving

• Full working proficiency in English (written and verbal)

Most learning in this field doesn't come from textbooks. It comes from working on hard problems with people who have solved them before. We provide the infrastructure, the data, the mentorship, and the intellectual environment. You bring the raw capability and the willingness to learn.
