4. Long-Term Thinking
You care about:
Robustness over curve-fit returns
Consistency over temporary spikes
Systems that scale
Compounding intellectual capital

5.  ‎ Technical Strength
Strong Python (pandas, numpy, vectorization, data manipulation)
Comfortable building backtests from scratch
Ability to handle large datasets
Familiarity with statistics and probability
SQL is a plus

You should be able to:
Write clean, modular research code
Avoid lookahead bias
Simulate slippage and realistic execution
Generate structured performance reports

The Intangible
We are looking for someone with:
Fire in the belly
