You’ll lead the execution, monitoring, and optimization of trading operations while collaborating closely with quant researchers, engineers, and DeFi strategists to ensure performance, efficiency, and risk management across our portfolios. This is a hands-on leadership role in which you will oversee the full trade lifecycle, identify alpha-generating opportunities, scale operational processes, and contribute to the strategic direction of our trading and portfolio management efforts.
Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end trading operations across CEXs, DEXs, and OTC venues—ensuring seamless execution, allocation, confirmation, and reconciliation of crypto assets.
- Oversee live algorithmic strategies, monitor performance versus expected risk/return, and respond to real-time market disruptions with transparent decision-making.
- Conduct in-depth post-trade and quantitative performance analysis to surface trends, inefficiencies, and actionable insights.
- Partner with quantitative researchers to iterate on strategy parameters and align execution with evolving market dynamics.
- Design, implement, and scale operational workflows, controls, and automation frameworks to improve execution quality and efficiency.
- Manage on-chain wallet infrastructure, ensuring timely and secure movement of funds and transaction tracking across protocols and custodians.
- Deliver timely reporting and performance summaries, including market insights, strategy reviews, and macroeconomic commentary.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, finance, and compliance teams to ensure auditability, operational integrity, and regulatory alignment.
- Drive research into emerging protocols, derivatives, and venues to expand trading capabilities and identify high-impact opportunities.
- Maintain and enhance real-time monitoring tools, dashboards, and alert systems leveraging APIs and on-chain data.
Qualifications
- 3–7+ years in trading operations, risk, or portfolio management roles within hedge funds, crypto-native firms, or institutional trading environments.
- Proven leadership and team management experience in a fast-paced, high-stakes setting.
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, or related field; advanced degree preferred.
- Deep expertise in financial markets with strong knowledge of derivatives (futures, options, swaps), crypto markets, and DeFi protocols.
- Proficiency with trading infrastructure, including OMS/EMS platforms, blockchain explorers, and reconciliation tools.
- Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Python, SQL, or similar tools for analyzing and automating workflows.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills with the ability to distill complex concepts into clear insights.
- Strong operational acumen with a track record of building scalable systems and processes in high-growth or startup environments.
- Comfort working in a decentralized, remote-first environment with a proactive and adaptable mindset.
