We’re building a lean, high-performance trading desk and are looking for a Senior Crypto Trader with around 6 years of experience to take ownership of live strategies and scale quickly into a Head of Trading role.
What You’ll Do:
• Run your own crypto trading strategy from day one
• Full ownership: from idea to execution, including risk and performance tracking
• Optimise and operate ultra-low latency (tick-to-trade, single-digit µs) strategies
• Scale P&L and build out infrastructure around your trading edge
• Help shape the future structure and direction of the trading business
What We’re Looking For:
• Currently live with a crypto strategy — or has done so recently
• Deep understanding of market microstructure, HFT, and execution risk
• Hands-on with Python/C++ for rapid development and testing
• Strategic thinker with tactical execution and leadership potential
• Available to start within 6 months max (non-compete OK)
Compensation:
• Base up to $200K USD
• Strong P&L share
Fully remote-friendly (outside of US due to regulatory structure)
