Searching for 6 month off-cycle internship related to computer science and finance

Hello,

I currently need to find a 6 month internship to complete my Master of Science in Financial Engineering at EPFL. I got a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at EPFL and seek a job in finance that rely on computer science. I have competence in machine learning/deep learning which is quite the hot stuff, but also in concurrency and parallelism as well as hardware or Operating System that might be more related to high frequency trading. In addition to that I learned in my master so far basic macro economics and finance, derivatives pricing, asset pricing (CAPM, Arbitrage pricing theory limits to them), stochastic calculus and econometrics. It seems to me that quantitative researcher should be my aim, or trying to join a hedge fund as I would really like to help develop trading strategies. Is it the right direction, are their alternative? Do you have recommendation of companies that propose internship related to my goal? Also, I don't know if it's important in my career planning but I'm quite young (21 years old)
