- Partner closely with risk, operations, and engineering to improve OMS/EMS workflows, automation, alerts, and real-time risk monitoring.
- Maintain an institutional-grade process: pre-trade controls, post-trade analysis, reconciliations, documentation, and audit readiness.
- Contribute to the evolution of G20’s market-neutral platform, including strategy refinement and new opportunity assessment.
Requirements
- Degree in Quantitative Finance, Mathematics, Computer Science, Statistics, or a related quantitative discipline; top-tier university preferred.
- 3+ years of hands-on experience in crypto derivatives, market-neutral, or relative-value trading.

- Comfortable working with execution systems and data; able to collaborate effectively with quants and engineers.
- Experience with institutional custody and collateral frameworks (e.g. Fireblocks, Copper, Anchorage, or equivalent).
- Calm under volatility, process-driven, and comfortable operating within defined risk limits.
- Clear communicator with the ability to explain strategy, risk, and performance to internal stakeholders.
Preferred / Desirable Experience
- Experience in stat arb, volatility arbitrage, trend-following overlays, or multi-strategy market-neutral pods.
- Prior exposure to regulated, audited, or institutional client environments.
- Familiarity with both CeFi and DeFi market structure.
