I’m Bryan Downing and I’m the founder and owner of Quantlabs.net. ’QLN’ (as I often call it) is unique - it’s the only quant-related website and membership service expressly designed to help you gain practical experience with the quantitative world. I just updated my stance on my social media outlets with a 30 minute videos explaining it. In fact, what really spurred me on was the obvious fact that computer-based algorithmic trading is the way of the future. Every serious institutional investor is now relying on quantitative methods to improve their analysis, risk management, and trading activities. This trend isn’t likely to reverse any time soon. In fact, it’s going to get more and more competitive (and more and more secretive) as everyone strives for a trading edge and a secret weapon or two to ensure steady profits.
I’m sure you’re thinking the same and I hope you enjoy blending technology, trading and investments as much as I do!

In this episode, Brian from quantlabs.net delves into a fascinating article from eFinancialCareers.com about Better Hand Financial Technologies (BHFT), a high-frequency trading firm based in Dubai. BHFT has been making waves with its remote work model and strategic hires from top competitors.

Key hires include Ilya Malinovsky, former head of HFT at Tower Research Capital and Credit Suisse, and Ruslan Reskipov, previously head of derivatives and algo trading at Renaissance Capital. The firm has also attracted talent like Rook Teeter, former managing director at KCG Holding and Tower Research.
BHFT stands out by using Rust instead of the traditional C++ for its trading systems, attracting a diverse team that includes chess champions, martial arts winners, and world-class math and science talents. Despite the remote work setup, the company boasts a friendly, multicultural team with a modern tech stack.
The episode also covers BHFT’s current job listings, including roles for senior quant traders and researchers, with a notable focus on the Chinese and Indian trading markets. Brian wraps up by sharing updates about his new website, quantlabsnet.com, and invites listeners to join the new community group.
