You need to write clean, performant, production-ready code, and you need to understand the financial logic behind what you're building well enough to catch problems before they hit live markets. You'll work closely with our quant research team to translate complex mathematical models into reliable systems that execute in real time with minimal latency. If you're the kind of person who takes equal pride in elegant code and sound market intuition, this is built for you.
Responsibilities
Design and develop backtesting frameworks, research tooling, and simulation environments for quant strategy development
Implement and maintain trading algorithms and execution systems across live crypto markets
Optimize code for performance and low latency across the full research-to-production pipeline
Collaborate directly with quantitative researchers to productionize strategies and ensure research assumptions hold in production
Build and maintain data pipelines for market data ingestion, processing, and storage
Monitor and improve live system reliability, catching and resolving issues before they affect trading outcomes
