What was your experience with pure-systematic prop shops/hedge funds like 2-sigma, DE Shaw, etc.? Is a math PhD and fin math publications not "good enough" for them, because they are looking for substantial ML expertise?

urgh so agree with your commentary of non-systematic places for quants.

Are you at a systematic shop now or in tech?
