hedge funds are not uniform enough to have any predictable set of skill requirements

some need a node js script, some swear by python because an area of computational finance has gathered around it, some swear by languages closer to the metal, some have use cases that are better off with low latency stacks, others dont

some are modifying FPGAs, others have simply negotiated a payout from a court case and will teach you F to analyze a dataset faster

if they need coders at all, they all mostly need some level of quicker analysis but not possible to predict what kind of coder a hedge fund will need
