At Hudson River Trading (HRT) we are mathematicians, computer scientists, statisticians, physicists and engineers. We research and develop automated trading algorithms using advanced mathematical techniques. We have built one of the world's most sophisticated compute environments, and our researchers are at the forefront of innovation in the world of algorithmic trading and machine learning.
HRT was founded in 2002 by computer scientists and mathematicians who believed that math and technology could transform financial markets. They developed the algorithms that became the foundation for HRT's continued success across global asset classes. Today, we are global industry leaders, and a leading voice for fair and open markets. Our trading creates stronger markets for all investors, and all our work is built upon our rigorous code of ethics.
We're a community of self-starters, critical thinkers, and eager problem-solvers. Collaboration is at the heart of our success — from an open-source code base to lively cross-team lunches in our cafe, a spirit of openness underscores everything we do. We celebrate great ideas from HRT veterans and new hires alike. We love solving the most complex problems in trading and technology, and believe the best work can only be done together.
Our INSIGHT program is part of our commitment to give as many people as possible the chance to learn more about what we do.

We're a startup that makes startups! We use AI to minimise the cost of building, operating and growing startups. Previously, we helped build Monzo. We're founded in March 2024 by former Monzo Co-Founder and CTO and backed by some of the world's best investors (Garry Tan, Naval Ravikant, Tom Blomfield, Accel, Index Ventures, OpenAI, founders of Anthropic, Perplexity, etc).
In a few years' time, we believe that the majority of software will be made by people with no technical background, collaborating with an AI. What today takes weeks or months and a team of specialists will be accessible to everyone, take only minutes, and cost very little. Instead of one-size-fits-all products, everyone will be making their own tools, customized to their needs.
Come spend 3 or 6 months with us to build and launch a revenue generating startup! You can build whatever you like. The only catch is that you have to use our AI generator to build your startup from human language input. And if it's not able to do so, you first need to improve the generator to make it generatable.
