  • Minimum of five years of experience in futures execution microstructure research.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python and experience with KDB.

  • Excellent analytical skills with a keen attention to detail.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.

Additional Information:

  • This role is based in our New York office.
  • The team operates primarily in-office and values regular in-person collaboration.
  • Candidates from single-stock equities execution backgrounds are also encouraged to apply.
  • We are open to candidates with experience in listed products on exchanges.
  • This position does not cover FX or cash bonds; instead, it focuses on listed single-name equities.
