Job Description
About the role
We are a Singapore-based, long-term oriented hedge fund managing a highly concentrated portfolio that targets structural growth and asymmetric returns. Investing primarily in U.S. and Korean equities, our investment philosophy employs a barbell strategy that pairs hyper-growth Secular Winner with deeply undervalued quality companies. We do not chase benchmark tracking or short-term trends; instead, we go all-in on high-conviction, market-leading businesses and potential multi-baggers, embracing high volatility in pursuit of maximizing long-term compounding. As a result, we have consistently and decisively outperformed the market over the long term. You will work directly with the Portfolio Manager to support idea generation, portfolio monitoring, and the automation of our research processes using vibe coding and AI tools.
Key responsibilities
- Attend company IR calls/meetings and prepare clear, structured notes.
- Monitor key macroeconomic indicators and track structural changes across major industries.
- Monitor shifts in market leadership, including leading sectors and leading stocks in Korea and the US.
- Adjust and update the internal model portfolio in line with the fund's investment strategy and risk framework.
- Proactively identify opportunities to automate and systematize recurring research and monitoring processes using vibe coding and AI-driven workflows.
Requirements — this is a hard requirement, not a preference. If you do not meet the requirements, do not apply.
• Bilingual fluency in Korean and English (spoken and written)
• Insatiable intellectual curiosity — you dig into questions until you fully understand them, not just until they're good enough.
Preferred qualifications
- Strong interest in Korean and US equity markets, especially secular growth leaders and high-quality compounders.
- Solid understanding of accounting and corporate finance; ability to build and maintain Excel-based DCF and valuation models is a plus.
- Comfortable using AI, no-code and vibe coding workflows to build simple dashboards, screeners, and research utilities.
- High attention to detail, strong work ethic, and willingness to learn in a fast-paced hedge fund environment.
- Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents are preferred.
