View opportunityWhy work at a quant firm in Toronto?
Toronto combines a deep pension and asset-management base with a newer layer of proprietary trading and engineering offices established by US firms. Demand skews to quant development and electronic trading rather than pure research, and the local machine-learning talent pool competes with the same technology employers that recruit in the Bay Area.
What do quant roles pay in Toronto?
Pay varies more by function and seniority than by city. The salary pages model each function for Toronto with the basis they use; adverts that publish pay show it on the listing.
How do interviews work at Toronto quant firms?
Each firm runs its own loop. The guides below cover DRW in Toronto, stage by stage.
