Frequently Asked Questions


How is Quark Capital different from traditional quant funds?

We integrate large-scale language models, retrieval-augmented pipelines, and reinforcement-learning traders in one stack—then roadmap these workflows onto hybrid quantum accelerators as hardware matures.

Which asset classes do you trade today?

U.S. and global equities, equity index futures, major FX pairs, and liquid digital assets; additional futures and options roll out as liquidity thresholds and risk models validate.

Do you actually use quantum computers now?

Yes, for experimental portfolio-optimization subroutines on AWS Braket and IonQ hardware; production deployment begins once speed–quality crossover beats classical solvers on ≥100-asset universes.

What roles are you hiring for?

Deep-learning researchers, low-latency C++ engineers, reinforcement-learning scientists, quantitative portfolio managers, and compliance technologists.


How do you manage risk?

Real-time VaR, scenario stress tests, and agent-level kill-switches run continuously; positions auto-de-risk if drawdown or liquidity metrics breach hard limits.

What makes your data pipeline unique?

We enrich 20+ terabytes/day of multilingual news, social, weather, and filings with AI-generated context, then compress everything into low-latency vector stores for instant retrieval.
