FP Careers - Haskell - F#

[James Wood]

Dear All

I am a headhunter with a focus on tech developers predominantly in
the
finance sector. Part of my focus is functional programmers especially
in Haskell, OCaml, F#. I posted this about 4 months ago but I'm still
looking!

I'm currently working on a role for an Investment Bank which has
emerged unscathed from the economic turmoil and is actively looking
for highly advanced Haskell programmers. Ideally candidates will have
a MSc or PhD in Computer Science or Mathematics and will be very
comfortable programming in Haskell. The team is part of the front-
office quant analytics group and is using functional programming in
novel ways to solve some interesting problems both in both technology
and risk modelling. The group is working on several concurrent
projects which include grid computing and cutting edge FP work. They
are looking to add several more key hires over the year. Finance
experience is not necessary but can be advantageous. Location can be
flexible.

I'm also very keen to speak to you F# developers.

There are only a few banks who have seriously invested in functional
programming and actually incorporate it as part of their
infrastructure. If anyone is interested in discussing this with me
feel free to give me a ring or email my work email.
