About Us

Cayuga is a quantitative research and technology firm building low-latency infrastructure for financial markets. We bring mathematics and engineering together in one team, and we treat markets as a scientific problem: form a hypothesis, test it against data, iterate. Our systems are engineered for performance where nanoseconds matter.

Our foundation is Ph.D.-trained mathematicians and top systems engineers from Silicon Valley from United States. They bring the rigor of academic research and the discipline of production engineering, and they work on the same problems side by side, from the first signal to the live system.

We are deliberately small and flat. Ideas are judged on merit, not on title. We invest in learning, through internal classes and research discussions, because deepening understanding is real work here. 100% of our team hold advanced degrees.

We hire curious, humble people who care about getting the answer right. If you enjoy hard problems at the intersection of research, data and systems, we would like to talk.
