Simon

Hear from Simon, Technical Signals Engineering manager, on his journey with G-Research after joining back in 2011.

“I joined G-Research in 2011 as an Engineer, moved into my first management role in 2015 and now oversee a group of engineering teams. G-Research has grown a lot over that time but the core things that I love about my job haven’t changed.

“I continue to be blown away by the quality of the people I get to work with here: G-Research thrives because of its team culture and we’ve hired carefully to make sure everyone is both exceptionally smart and great to work with. Being able to work with and learn from such a peer group has been both incredibly valuable to me personally, and importantly, a lot of fun.

“The opportunity to do highly impactful work in perhaps the most competitive industry in the world has always been a huge attraction to me. Seeing your work deployed quickly into the real world is incredibly rewarding, and the whole company remains really focused on getting better and better at what we do.”

"G-Research makes a lot of effort to have a very open culture and gives a lot of freedom to its individual researchers to pursue directions that they think are valuable, with each researcher very much driving their own research. I didn’t feel like I was losing a lot of freedom (compared to academia)."
