Asia-focused alternative investment platform with multi-manager structure
Polymer Capital operates a market-neutral investment platform for Asia, established in 2019 as a partnership with PAG. The tech stack—C#, Java, Python, Kafka, Apache Spark, PostgreSQL, FIX—reveals a quantitative trading and data infrastructure focus. Active projects around high-performance storage, data quality automation, and cloud-to-on-prem migration, paired with pain points in fund efficiency and market-abuse detection, suggest Polymer is maturing its internal systems while managing cost and compliance at scale.
Polymer Capital Management operates a multi-manager investment platform targeting Asia-Pacific markets. Founded in 2019 as a joint venture with PAG, the firm combines institutional backing with local market expertise to identify and develop regional investment talent. The company employs 201–500 people across engineering, data, finance, and operations functions, with active hiring across China, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, and the United States. Core infrastructure spans quantitative trading systems, data pipelines, and fund management workflows.
Polymer uses C#, Java, Python, and C++ for core systems; Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS for cloud infrastructure; Kafka and Apache Spark for data pipelines; PostgreSQL for databases; Bloomberg terminals for market data; and FIX protocol for trading connectivity.
