The Financial Analyst will work with cross-functional teams to analyze data, conduct financial analyses, and improve risk modeling. Responsibilities include data presentation and interpreting financial information for investment insights.
We’re looking for world-class front-office Financial Analysts to join our mission at Arcana—a next-generation portfolio intelligence company powering hedge funds, and asset managers. This role isn’t your typical modeling-and-memos analyst gig. Our analysts work hand-in-hand with product, engineering, and data science to build the future of institutional-grade finance software. Work experience in buy-side financial institutions or top-tier investment banks, and strong Excel skills are a necessity.
If you’re passionate about numbers but thrive at the intersection of finance, technology, and quantitative thinking, this is the role for you.
Responsibilities:
- Presentation and analysis of data utilizing charts, tables, and Excel.
- Analyzing financial reports, market, and asset performance to draw useful takeaways in the frame of an investor.
- Interpreting information about yield, price, risk, stability, and other factors that contribute to a financial asset's investment merits.
- Deep understanding of quantitative risk modeling to innovate and improve upon our commercial risk model & portfolio analytics.
- Conducting unit economic and financial analysis.
- Working closely with the data engineering and data science team to interpret, check, and source relevant metrics and data.
Requirements:
- Top-tier pedigree: Bachelor’s or Master's degree with honors (8.0+ GPA mandatory). Ideally from an IIT/IIM/top global university. MBA/CFA/FRM is a strong plus.
- 2+ years of experience in a front-office financial role (typically, Investment Banking, or Investment Due Diligence).
- Must have strong communication skills (verbal and written).
- Methodical, concise, and accurate work style, with strong attention to detail and deadlines.
- Able to quickly learn and apply technical understanding to solve problems.
- An aptitude and interest in quantitative risk management, information technology, and the latest trends.
- Conscientious and focused on objectives with an attitude, and with written and verbal communication.
- Sound experience in data analysis, validation, and presentation of results (MS Excel).
Preferred locations: Remote, Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, or Coimbatore are a plus.
