  • If you’re curious what it’s actually like to intern at Tower, we’ve put it all in one place. Our internship program emphasizes real responsibility, close mentorship, and collaboration with full-time teams. Interns work on live systems and research, join the broader Tower community, and are treated as colleagues — not observers. On our new internship page, you’ll see how the program is structured, what a typical day can look like, and the kinds of problems interns encounter across trading, engineering, and research. You’ll also find open internship roles, insights from former interns, and resources designed to help candidates better understand quantitative finance and the work we do.

  • ICYMI from Tower Research Ventures: VCs are excited about AI-driven rollup strategies, betting large sums on acquiring services businesses and “AI-ifying” them for scale and margins. In our latest piece from Tower Research Ventures, we argue that while the thesis makes sense on paper, the execution can be harder than it looks — and that a bigger opportunity may lie in building AI-native services businesses from the ground up.

  • In our ongoing AMA series, we're sharing answers to frequently asked questions on how we build, operate, and evolve one of the world’s most sophisticated trading platforms. Today's question: What are Tower’s biggest technical challenges right now? A: Scaling performance while keeping systems clean and easy to maintain is always the challenge. We’re constantly refining a global platform that supports very different trading styles – with ultra-low latency and data-intensive approaches – without fragmenting code. There’s also the organizational side: ensuring independent teams can innovate while still benefiting from shared libraries, infrastructure, and standards.

  • Tower recently participated in Columbia University Mathematics of Finance (MAFN) Fall Practitioner Seminar, where Ramit Sawhney, Global Head of Core AI and ML, discussed the evolving role of AI agents and multi-agent systems in quantitative finance. The session explored how large language models are moving beyond passive prediction toward more active, agent-based approaches that support research, trading, and engineering workflows — along with the importance of robustness, transparency, and responsible deployment. We appreciated the opportunity to engage with Columbia’s academic community and to contribute to conversations shaping the future of quantitative finance.

  • 2025 was a year to remember for Tower. Whether it was moving into our new NYC headquarters, making a difference in our communities, or celebrating our successes along the way, we strengthened the culture that has powered Tower for more than 25 years. Above all, we stayed true to what matters most: building exceptional teams, solving hard problems, and operating with integrity and discipline. Onward to 2026!

  • Last month, our Shanghai office kept Tower’s long-term participation in the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge going strong, joining thousands of runners from companies across the city for the 3.5-mile event. It’s always energizing to see our teams participate in an initiative that blends teamwork, friendly competition, and wellness — and Shanghai delivered an excellent showing. Congratulations to everyone who represented Tower on the course. Read more: https://lnkd.in/epkfMbZf

  • A festive finish to 2025 at Tower. December is always a special month across Tower’s global offices, and this year’s holiday parties were no exception. Across the globe, our teams came together to close out the year with good company, seasonal treats, and the kinds of conversations that only happen when you step away from the day-to-day and take the time to celebrate. These events are a chance to not just celebrate the work we’ve done and the milestones we’ve hit, but also to recognize the people behind them. Tower's culture is built on collaboration, intellectual curiosity, and a shared commitment to excellence. You feel that most clearly when everyone is in the same room. As we wrap up 2025, we’re grateful for a year of growth, for the talent of our team, and for the drive that defines our teams worldwide. The holiday season is always a moment to reflect, and this year reminded us just how much we’ve accomplished together. Thanks to everyone across Tower who helped make these celebrations memorable. Here’s to a restful end of the year and to everything we’ll build in 2026!

  • Tower was proud to sponsor and attend McGill CodeJam Hackathon last month. We met with participants throughout the weekend to hear about their projects, learn their approaches, and share insight into the engineering and quantitative challenges we work on every day. Thank you to the organizers and to all the students who attended — an impressive showing of talent and creativity. We look forward to returning in future years!

Through this initiative, we are providing customized assistive devices to 10 children in Sanand, Gujarat, helping improve their cognitive abilities, communication skills and overall quality of life. Continuing this effort, colleagues at our GIFT City office took part in a hands-on activity to create Tactile Learning Materials for children and adults with deafblindness. A big thank you to our colleagues for their enthusiasm and commitment on making a positive impact.
