What is Investment Engineering?

As an Investment Engineer, your mission is to understand how the world's markets and economies work and codify this understanding. You will spend your time designing and building the algorithms which are used to generate Bridgewater's views on markets, translate those views into portfolios, and trade those portfolios. Every piece of investment logic is owned by an Engineer who:
  • Is an expert in their investment domain and can hold the whole model of the investment system in their head.
  • Designs systems that beautifully express and run our investment logic and evolves with our investment understanding.
  • Runs and develops a team of engineers to build and maintain the investment system.
We also shape how Bridgewater does investment research: we deeply understand how exploration is done and evolve the methods and tools to more rapidly develop breakthrough insights.

What is the Investment Engineering Ethos?

We are an Engineering owned and led organization which strives to balance fierce independence with incredible community support in an environment that is intellectually vibrant and driven to make a mark on the world as a collaborative force.

Our core values:
  • Honesty, transparency, directness, personal accountability, driven by doing what's right for the organization.
  • Holding a very high bar for each other, everything we do, and everything we build.
  • Actively engaging in shaping our environment and how we do things. You create the culture again every day you come into the office - it must be highly dynamic and owned by all of us.
  • Autonomy and self-motivation: we are here to enable and develop (not manage) great people who share our way of being and passion for working on important problems that have big impact.

  • Interns will also participate in a summer-long Investment Engineering class which will give each participant a well-rounded experience that covers the gamut of the problems we face, and the thinking required to solve them.
