The team in Mumbai comprises about ten people, with varied backgrounds in Finance, Engineering and Physics, and strong, deep knowledge of financial modelling and computer science.

This role sits within Fixed Income Quant Research, which is part of Nomura's wider Quantitative Research team.

Nomura's Fixed Income quants also have an industry-leading approach to calculating the risks of trades (known as the "Greeks").
