tools.  We are 17 employees.

We have a need to hire people for a new company jointly owned by a highly 
respected brokerage company. It will fill a crucial, but as of yet 
untapped, need within the online brokerage community.  The positions 
provide an excellent learning opportunity in quantitative finance in an 
unobstructed entrepreneurial environment, and are a great opportunity to 
get into a start up at a very early stage.  We were nominated by Red 
Herring as one of the top 50 start ups on the east coast in 1999.
