About the company

Now crypto is booming again, this HFT fund is looking to double in size its crypto trading team. Looking for a hybrid quant/dev, skilled in Python or C++, who can excel in the fast-paced, rapidly changing world of cryptocurrency.

Unique in their field, they have the lively, positive spirit of a start-up with the stability of a longer-established player. They hire exceptional talent in Maths, Physics and Computer Science, from across the trading, tech and start-up industries, to apply cutting-edge research to global financial markets.

In this role, you will be directly responsible for advancing the team’s trading footprint. Your work will include building and optimizing trading strategies; researching new protocols and datasources; designing and improving our research and trading systems; and collaborating with team members and others to advance the team’s dual mission of being the top crypto trader in the world and a major contributor in the crypto ecosystem.

The successful Quant Dev will appreciate cleanly architected systems and is willing to do the dirty work to ensure team standards are raised. They will also make decisions to optimize the team’s productivity, going the long way round if it helps make the code more scalable and robust.

Very open to seeing devs who mid-long term are keen on relocating to Singapore.

Remote interviews are still possible, but all starts are now onsite and only if it specifies clearly is this role available fully remotely.
