Asymmetric Capital is looking for a full-time developer who moves fast and has a passion for crypto and finance.
About us
Asymmetric Capital is a crypto-native investment startup with trad-fi DNA, targeting consistent returns of 80% annualized.
The partners previously cofounded a global top 20 crypto HFT trading firm that scaled to billions in average daily trading volume.
At our new firm Asymmetric, we scan the crypto markets to identify mispriced investment opportunities that have a great risk-return profile.
We apply the rigor of tradfi to capitalize on inefficiencies in nascent crypto markets.
Truth be told, a lot of what we do isn’t “trading”.
One day we might be moving crypto into new pools and figuring out creative ways to stack farming rewards.
The next day we might be spinning up a team of 25 offshore virtual assistants to captain digital pirate ships that farm virtual gold.
On another day we might be building tech to market-make NFTs on Blur.
If it’s crypto and we can get in early with an edge – we’ll move quickly to capitalize and use tech to augment and scale when appropriate.
About the role
Your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to help us scrape data and build automations to stay ahead of competitors.
You’ll work to creatively scrape data quickly so we can get an info edge on the competition.
You’ll automate blockchain transactions across a variety of projects and protocols, through libraries like Ethers. You’ll connect to various trading venues to build pair trading scripts. You’ll build custom alerts to monitor price changes on new Dexes, and much more.
Some examples of recent projects:
- Scraping points farming leaderboards to get data to develop an optimal farming strategy
- Writing a script to automatically play a blockchain game
- Automate a heuristic used to farm points on a new SoFi protocol
- Integrating into CeFi/DeFi exchanges to execute funding arb trades
This is a full-time remote role. It will require at least a 4 hour time zone overlap with Hong Kong hours (7am-6pm UTC+8)
About you
If we could choose 1 word to describe the ideal candidate for this role, it’s “scrappy”.
You’re a scrappy and creative technical problem solver - great at figuring out creative solutions and implementing them quickly.
You’ll move quickly - but with careful attention to detail. You enjoy the challenge of working on a variety of projects, using tech to help our trading team grow PnL.
You have:
- 3+ years of experience working in crypto / defi
- Experience building wrappers around web3 tech e.g. using a library like Ethers
- A strong understanding of smart contracts and smart wallets
- Experience using exchange APIs
- Lots of experience with web scraping
- Basic understanding of financial concepts
- Passion for crypto finance
Other requirements:
- You’re fast. Speed and ability to iterate quickly is our biggest priority. We often work on tasks that require a 24 hour turnaround.
- Strong attention to detail
- Great communicator - you’ll be working directly with our head trader to gather data and build automations so you should be comfortable with lots of back-and-forth and iterations as you build.
- Comfortable iterating and keeping things simple: we’d prefer 80% done in 1 day vs. 100% done in 2 days
- Able to translate high level requirements into technical solutions - you won’t be handheld, you’ll be expected to understand the problem and work on your own to come up with the solution.
- You’re good at smashing obstacles with creative solutions
What We Bring to the Table
- Compensation range: $72-$110k salary + performance bonus
- 4 weeks PTO
- Hands on learning + upside
- An intense but fun environment where we live, eat, breathe crypto trading
- Hands on learning
- Relocation stipend available
Ready to dominate the crypto markets?
If you're ready to embark on an adventure with a startup trading firm that lives and breathes the crypto markets, then we want to hear from you. Let's join forces and do something extraordinary together!
What is the work of fintech?
Fintech (short for financial technology) refers to the use of technology to innovate and improve financial services
Fintech companies develop and offer various financial products and services that are often more convenient, affordable, and accessible than traditional financial services
Fintech in Web3 is focused on developing decentralized financial (DeFi) applications that enable peer-to-peer financial transactions without intermediaries such as banks or other financial institutions
These DeFi applications are built on blockchain technology, which provides transparency, security, and immutability to financial transactions
Some of the common areas of fintech include:
- Payment and money transfer services: Fintech companies offer online payment solutions, mobile wallets, and digital currency exchanges to facilitate the transfer of money between individuals or businesses.
- Personal finance and wealth management: Fintech companies provide online investment platforms, robo-advisors, and financial planning tools to help individuals manage their money and invest in a more efficient way.
- Lending and financing: Fintech companies offer various loan and financing options, such as peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, and invoice financing, which are often more flexible and accessible than traditional bank loans.
- Insurance: Fintech companies offer innovative insurance products and services, such as peer-to-peer insurance and usage-based insurance, that are tailored to meet the needs of customers.
- Decentralized exchanges (DEXs): These are platforms that enable peer-to-peer trading of cryptocurrencies without intermediaries. DEXs use smart contracts to execute trades automatically and securely on the blockchain.
- Decentralized lending platforms: These platforms use smart contracts to enable peer-to-peer lending without intermediaries. Borrowers can access loans without going through a traditional bank or financial institution, while lenders can earn interest on their funds.
- Decentralized insurance platforms: These platforms use smart contracts to automate the claims and payout process, reducing fraud and increasing transparency.
- Decentralized identity solutions: These solutions use blockchain technology to create a secure and decentralized identity system, enabling users to control their own data and identity.
