I can definitely help you build this into a competitive, authoritative article that meets all the guidelines you’ve outlined. The next steps would be to:

Research and gather sources for the key data points (e.g., salary trends for quant traders in Australia, how to become one, etc.).

Structure the content around the main user needs and clearly mark sources as per your specified citation style.

Use media (images, videos) as needed to enhance the content’s engagement and clarity.

If you’re ready to proceed, I’ll start by researching the latest data on quant trader salaries and relevant career pathways. Would you like me to focus on a specific aspect of this topic first? Maybe salary trends, job qualifications, or something else?
