Role Summary
We're looking for a Quantitative Researcher to join our Algo Derivatives Trading team and help us expand into systematic crypto options trading. The aim is to bring our existing derivatives expertise, models and trading infrastructure into the crypto space and build a new strategy from the ground up. You will combine research and trading in one role. That means owning ideas from first hypothesis through backtesting and deployment to live management: monitoring real-time P&L and risk, tracking execution quality, and deciding when to scale, adjust or retire a strategy. You'll work closely with traders and developers in a small, collaborative team where your research goes straight into production.
