We’re looking for a high-performance eFX Quantitative Trader with deep Forex or HFT experience, someone who's ready to own their vertical and make an immediate PnL impact.


Your main responsibilities

  • Develop and iterate high-frequency trading strategies with focus on Forex and Crypto / OTC.

  • Build and optimize predictive models and signals for execution, hedging, and post-trade analysis.

  • Execute and manage spot arbitrage trades through to deliverable settlement, coordinating inventory availability (balances), internal transfers, withdrawals/deposits, and post-trade reconciliation to ensure smooth settlement and minimize fails.

  • Own the forex trading pipeline — from rate tracking, market making logic, to monitoring and deployment.

  • Collaborate on improving fiat hedging, exotic currency flows, and OTC settlement logic.

  • Analyze market microstructure and execution performance to improve Sharpe and reduce slippage.

  • Help evolve our asset allocation logic — we actively manage assets across 30+ exchanges daily.

What We Expect

  • 5+ years of experience in high-frequency or proprietary trading (crypto or traditional).

  • Prior work in a high-frequency Forex environment, fiat market making, or involvement with a low-latency trading/execution system.

  • Hands-on experience trading Forex or OTC markets.

  • Knowledge of forex markets, FX instruments, and price discovery for various currencies — from majors to exotics.

  • Solid experience in hedging logic, managing fiat settlement flows, or optimizing asset rebalancing across multiple exchanges.

  • Deep understanding of market microstructure and how to design systems that extract edge from it.

  • Strong ability to analyze PnL, post-trade statistics, and fine-tune strategies to optimize Sharpe ratio, turnover, and drawdowns.

  • Advanced proficiency in Python, applied statistics, and predictive modeling.

  • Familiarity with Rust is a valuable advantage.

  • Able to design and maintain robust trading infrastructure, including real-time monitoring, execution diagnostics, dynamic parameter tuning, and automated risk controls.

Our Promise To You

We offer you hands-on insight into one of the most exciting and lucrative industries today. Our work contributes to transforming the current financial industry and democratizing access to digital goods across the world.

Conditions

  • Extremely open idea meritocracy and close to Zero bureaucracy.

  • Flexible working hours, casual work attire and startup atmosphere.
