Aquatic Capital Management

Jonathan Graham founded Aquatic in 2019 after more than 13 years at Citadel, where he ultimately led the firm's Global Quantitative Strategies business. The firm is headquartered in Chicago and also lists offices in New York and London.

Aquatic manages systematic investment strategies, combining quantitative research, software engineering and risk management. Its public regulatory profile describes the business as portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles, while its own site emphasizes a research-and-development platform and direct capital commitment alongside investors.

The firm is especially relevant to students interested in quantitative finance, applied statistics, machine learning and technology-heavy investing. Current recruiting is concentrated in quantitative research and engineering, with internship roles requiring strong scientific training, Python proficiency and experience with data-intensive research.
