Jamie is the founding director of Sigma Systematic and an independent quantitative trader.
He is responsible for the overall management and direction of Sigma Systematic, drawing on over a decade’s worth of experience in quantitative finance. Under his leadership he’s directed teams of highly talented individuals, including former team leaders from the world’s largest AUM hedge fund, Bridgewater Associates, and other globally recognised corporations to build end-to-end data analytics and software solutions.
Before founding Sigma Systematic in 2021, he was an Associate Vice President (Quantitative Developer) at a global financial data analytics company where he received the highest annual performance review ratings (“outstanding”), and was promoted accordingly, for consistently delivering projects far above expectations. Regularly he led the way, spearheading several greenfield quantitative analysis and software engineering projects.
In 2015, Jamie started his quantitative trading career at Quadrature Capital, a leading quantitative proprietary trading firm (originally a hedge fund), where he joined as an intern and developed trading strategies for the equities markets based on rigorous statistical analysis of event-driven order book simulations.
Jamie holds a four-year MSci Master’s degree in Mathematics from Imperial College London, where he earned an award annually from 2011 – 2014 for consistently ranking as one of the top-performing students of over 300 peers in his year group.
