What We're Looking For

The Quantitative Strategies Group (QSG) at Cross River is seeking an Associate/AVP, Quant Strategist to join its growing team. The team sits within the Capital Solutions Group (CSG) and serves as a centralized function for investment intelligence and quantitative decision making across investment, structuring, and portfolio management initiatives. The role sits at the intersection of structured finance, investment strategy, and advanced analytics - bridging the gap between raw data and capital decisions.

The role will work closely with the Structured Products Group (SPG) and Principal Finance Group (PFG) to support investment underwriting, new deal origination, term ABS issuance/advisory, and active portfolio management. The ideal candidate will combine strong analytical and technical skills with commercial judgement - someone who can analyze collateral performance, understand relevant risk factors, form a view on underlying assets, build scalable analytical tools, and translate complex quantitative outputs into clear investment recommendations. This is a high-impact role for someone who wants exposure to live transactions, structured credit markets, and data-driven decision-making.

Responsibilities:

• Work closely with SPG and PFG to provide quantitative and analytical insights across investment opportunities, ABS securitizations, and structured credit transactions - from deal inception through execution
• Support capital commitment objectives through systematic underwriting of investment opportunities. Deliver refined and polished views on analytics, base/stress assumptions, and cashflow models that accurately capture the risk/reward dynamics of potential trades
• Support investment advisory mandates by producing market-ready analytics, comparative deal analyses, and performance benchmarks that help articulate differentiated value proposition to clients and counterparties
