<p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Qube Research & Technologies (QRT)</span></strong><span data-contrast="auto"> is a global quantitative and systematic investment manager operating across liquid asset classes and markets worldwide. Our approach to investing is scientific: we bring together data, research, technology and trading expertise to develop and run systematic strategies.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Technology is central to how QRT works. Over the years, we have built a global research and execution platform spanning geographies, asset classes and trading horizons, from ultra-low-latency systems to large-scale research, analytics and risk infrastructure. We invest heavily in engineering, automation and scalable systems because better technology allows us to test ideas faster, operate more reliably and tackle harder problems.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Our internships are designed to give students meaningful experience of that work. You’ll join a team, contribute to real projects and learn from engineers working on production systems. The environment is technical and collaborative, with plenty of scope to ask questions, investigate unfamiliar problems and take ownership. Strong performance during the internship may lead to consideration for a full-time graduate role.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Throughout the recruitment process, we’ll consider your skills and interests alongside the problems our teams are working on, with the aim of finding the strongest fit.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">As part of QRT’s Security team, you’ll help protect the systems, data and infrastructure behind our global research and trading activities. You’ll work closely with our Cloud, Infrastructure and Network Operations teams to design and implement security controls across a complex, high-performance technology environment.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">The team works across security engineering, detection and response, vulnerability management and security assurance. Rather than treating security as a separate layer, we work directly with engineering teams to understand how systems behave, identify weaknesses and build practical ways to prevent, detect and respond to threats.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">As an intern, you’ll contribute to real security problems and have opportunities to build tooling, investigate emerging attack techniques and improve how we automate security work at scale.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"335551550":6,"335551620":6}"> </span></p>
