Description

  • Detect behavioral deterioration, adverse selection, flow toxicity, style drift, and execution inefficiencies.
  • Design frameworks for participant segmentation, risk profiling, and flow classification.

  • Work with large-scale datasets and real-time monitoring systems.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams on automated decision systems, risk infrastructure, and real-time analytics.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in institutional trading, brokerage risk, market making, execution, proprietary trading, quantitative research, or trader evaluation environments.

  • Experience working with large-scale client flow, execution systems, trader populations, or liquidity infrastructure.
  • Deep intuition for probabilistic systems and statistical behavior at scale.
  • Strong Python and SQL skills.
  • Experience with behavioral analytics, clustering, statistical learning methods, time-series analysis, and large datasets.
  • Strong understanding of adverse selection, flow quality, execution efficiency, tail risk, regime changes, and behavioral drift.
  • Ability to reason effectively under noisy and non-stationary environments.
  • Preferred background in institutional brokers, proprietary trading firms, market makers, execution venues, electronic trading environments, hedge funds, or large-scale trader evaluation platforms.

Benefits

  • Equal opportunity employer committed to an open and inclusive work environment.
  • Supportive culture that fosters the well-being of employees.
