Green Card Quantitative Jobs
Quantitative roles in finance, tech, and data science are among the most actively PERM-sponsored positions in the U.S. market. Employers filing EB-2 and EB-3 petitions for quant analysts, researchers, and modelers follow a defined labor certification process before sponsorship can begin. Understanding where you fit in that pipeline shortens your path to a green card.

THE TEAM
Man Group's quantitative investment engines, AHL and Numeric, are aligning under Systematic (USD ~138bn AUM). As part of this integration, we are expanding our Investment and Data Implementation (IDI) team, which has supported AHL for many years, into a new Boston-based team supporting the Man Numeric business. The global IDI team spans Hong Kong, Sofia, London and now Boston. The Boston team is responsible for implementing all new business and portfolios (funds, Separately Managed Accounts (SMAs), and investment strategies), maintaining the integrity of systematic models, and steering the long-term development of our trading initiatives. Our mission is to ensure every quantitative strategy is implemented with precision and aligned with its investment objectives, from initial research idea through to the last trade. Though Boston-based and focused primarily on Man Numeric’s content, as part of Systematic, you will be part of a connected global network, sharing tooling, codebase, and implementation capabilities across all four locations. The problems the team solves are diverse, complex, and high-impact. The team is the primary responder when production issues halt the investment managers, requiring rapid diagnosis and resolution without introducing new risks. The team are the operational architects who translate a researcher’s ideal strategy or portfolio into a robust, scalable solution, balancing speed, resilience, and business logic. The team also works closely with other areas such as Portfolio Management and Trading to explain why an algorithm and portfolio optimizer generated specific trades. Finally, we partner with technologists to help design trading architecture that is automated, scalable, and transparent enough for manual intervention when necessary. This role offers exceptional exposure. Man Group's flat structure means your work is widely visible across the group, you will be working with portfolio managers, quantitative researchers, product structuring specialists, and traders, with the opportunity and expectation to contribute, propose solutions, and make decisions regardless of seniority. You’ll be supported throughout and as you build confidence, you will represent the global IDI team on cross-departmental working groups and present findings directly to senior management.
THE ROLE
We are seeking a highly motivated professional to bridge quantitative research, portfolio management, technology, trading, and middle & back-office teams. The analyst will partner with portfolio managers on the day-to-day operations of portfolio management, and collaborate with researchers, engineering, trading, and Man Group operations to ensure portfolios are managed accurately and our investment management infrastructure runs as intended. Time-sensitive daily production tasks are managed via a team rota, allowing off-rota time to be protected for deep-dive project work, coordinating complex fund and SMA launches, data analysis, prototyping new tooling and processes, and building out the team's AI capability. You will operate with a high level of autonomy. Our goal is to build your knowledge of the entire systematic investment management process (from Equity Long Only and Equity Market Neutral to Multi-Strategy and Global Macro) and the investment philosophy driving Systematic, empowering you to identify challenges, evaluate solutions, and deliver improvements and innovation independently.
Key Responsibilities
Portfolio implementation:
- Implement high-impact, real-time changes to the investment management and trading environment, including rolling out new quantitative research, launching new products, managing client and other constraints, and refitting existing products and strategies.
- Orchestrate and coordinate the investment process for new fund and complex SMA launches, ensuring clear ownership across front-office and central functions
Portfolio Operations
- Design and implement the new operating model for Equity Market Neutral, Equity Long Only and Fixed Income for IDI Boston
- Perform daily portfolio monitoring, manage compliance/constraint updates, and facilitate pre-trade order vetting alongside Portfolio Managers
- Manage and coordinate daily client flows (rebalancing, allocations) in close collaboration with Portfolio Managers
- Act as primary responder for production and trading issues across the systematic investment management estate and portfolio construction environment, leveraging smart tooling and, increasingly, AI and agentic workflows to diagnose root causes and execute manual workarounds for timely risk management
Implementation Analytics And Improvement
- Actively embrace and build AI skills and agentic workflows to pull relevant context, provide smart monitoring, and drive self-healing capabilities within the production system
- Work alongside peers across Systematic to define and deliver resilient trading system and platform development
- Use data analytics (Python/SQL/Pandas) to investigate complex scenarios — from simulating market restrictions to analysing exchange limit utilisation to validating strategy refits against production baselines
- Develop implementation analytics to provide commercial insights for the business
Skills And Attributes
The role relies on strong attention to detail, analytical judgement, and strong stakeholder management. Technical proficiency (e.g. Python, SQL) is highly valued, though we are equally interested in candidates keen to learn these skills and use emerging AI capabilities to drive efficiency.
Essential
- Ability to manage complex projects and multiple priorities simultaneously in a dynamic, fast-paced business
- Excellent attention to detail and a highly collaborative personality
- Driven and proactive. As a foundational member of the Boston team, you must be comfortable working without a perfect playbook and possess the initiative to build and refine processes from scratch
- A keen analytic approach to problem-solving, distilling complex problems to enable timely resolution
- Strong verbal and written communication; the ability to interact confidently with portfolio managers and domain experts
- Dependable judgment under pressure
- A relentless focus on delivering value to the business and improving implementation processes
Advantageous
- High level understanding of quantitative investment processes and portfolio construction
- Experience with portfolio management and/or trading systems, along with proficiency in data analysis and process automation
- Experience delivering or steering complex projects, such as fund or Separately Managed Account (SMA) launches
- Commercial experience or a strong interest in using AI tools to drive workflow efficiency and business insights
- Generalist experience and exposures within buy-side systematic investment (Implementation, Front Office, Middle Office or Trade Operations)
- Ability to use SQL and an object-oriented language (preferably Python) to investigate data and prototype solutions
- Proficiency in data reasoning techniques and relevant libraries (e.g., Pandas)

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Quantitative
Match your degree to the EB tier
EB-2 requires a master's or higher in a quantitative field like mathematics, statistics, or financial engineering. If you hold a bachelor's plus five years of progressive quant experience, document that progression carefully because USCIS scrutinizes the degree-equivalency claim on I-140 petitions.
Target employers with active PERM history
Financial firms, hedge funds, and tech companies that filed PERM applications for quantitative analyst roles in the past two years are far more likely to sponsor again. Use Migrate Mate to filter green-card-sponsoring employers by role type before you apply.
Understand the prevailing wage before negotiating
Your offer salary must meet the DOL-certified prevailing wage for your specific SOC code and work location. Check the OFLC Wage Search before accepting an offer so you know which wage level your credentials support and can negotiate accordingly.
Verify the employer's E-Verify enrollment early
Employers must be E-Verify enrolled to sponsor a PERM-based green card. Confirm this during the interview process, not after an offer, because switching employers mid-petition resets your timeline and requires a new labor certification filing.
Use O*NET to align your job duties with PERM descriptions
PERM job descriptions must reflect the actual minimum requirements for the role, not your personal qualifications. Review the O*NET occupation profile for your quant title to understand how DOL defines the role and ensure your employer's filing language matches.
Account for concurrent filing if priority dates allow
If your country of birth has a current EB-2 or EB-3 priority date, your employer can file the I-140 and I-485 concurrently, letting you apply for work authorization while the green card processes. Confirm current Visa Bulletin dates with USCIS before your employer begins the PERM application.
Green Card Quantitative: Frequently Asked Questions
Do quantitative roles typically qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
Most quantitative analyst and researcher positions qualify for EB-2 because they require at least a master's degree in mathematics, statistics, computer science, or a related field. Roles with a bachelor's degree minimum can still qualify for EB-2 if the employer accepts a degree plus five years of progressive quant experience as equivalent. EB-3 covers positions where the employer legitimately requires only a bachelor's degree.
How does PERM green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for a quant role?
H-1B visa is a temporary work visa subject to an annual lottery and a six-year cap, while PERM leads to permanent residency with no annual cap at the petition level. The PERM process takes longer upfront because it requires a DOL-supervised recruitment phase before filing, but the outcome is lawful permanent residency rather than a renewable temporary status. For most nationalities, EB-2 and EB-3 priority dates are current, meaning no multi-year backlog.
How long does the full EB-2 or EB-3 process take for a quantitative professional?
The PERM labor certification phase typically runs six to eighteen months depending on whether DOL audits the application. After approval, the employer files the I-140 petition with USCIS, which adds several more months under standard processing. If your priority date is current, you can file for adjustment of status concurrently with the I-140, compressing the overall timeline. Total time from PERM filing to green card approval commonly ranges from two to four years for non-backlogged nationalities.
Where can I find quantitative jobs that offer green card sponsorship?
Migrate Mate lets you search specifically for employers with active EB-2 and EB-3 PERM filing history for quantitative roles, so you spend time on applications where sponsorship is already an established part of the hiring process rather than a negotiation.
Can I change quant employers after my I-140 is approved but before I get my green card?
Yes, under AC21 portability rules, you can change to a same or similar quantitative role with a new employer after your I-140 has been approved and your I-485 has been pending for at least 180 days. The new role must fall under the same or a comparable SOC occupational category. Your priority date stays intact, but the new employer does not need to file a fresh PERM application.
