A job opening for quants

Alphacet told me that they have a job opening for a quant who will be helping their clients backtest trading strategies, among other responsibilities. Given that Alphacet's clients include several major investment banks and hedge funds, this position should provide pretty good close-up view of how the major quantitative players operate.

I have a saying 'An old signal is a dead signal'.

I guess it is a less elegant way of saying the same thing as use the latest information possible.

Can a quant work from India?

Vipin,
For this particular job, you should ask the hiring manager about the possibility of working remotely.
