pretty sure it refers to the English word, quant, which is a shortform of quantitative analysist

so this would mean "he didn't find a job in France and had to go to New York to work in quantitative analysis for (or in) a French bank"

however, "quant" is also a French word that's kind of hard to translate but I'd say it's like "as to/for"

this usage obviously doesn't use that definition, as shown by context and the word en before it

I agree yeah

« quant » as a conjunction only works with « quant à » and nothing else
