Quant Trader

Quant Trader Opportunity at Mathrix

Job description

Being a Quant Trader is neither a part-time job nor a full-time job. It’s a lifestyle. The crypto markets are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Therefore, you need to be passionate about the job, always wanting to follow developments in the crypto space and, most of all, love watching the markets. You need to be excited to spot opportunities and work closely with the team. It is a rewarding job, but that comes at the cost of always wanting to be present, whether it is day or night.

As a Quant Trader, you have a competitive attitude and the eagerness to constantly improve yourself and capitalize on opportunities. Together with the trading team, you are responsible for the execution of the trades, the PnL, and working on the day-to-day trading operations. Besides this, you are always looking for the best results in terms of developing, maintaining, and improving the trading strategies. In this dynamic environment, you are triggered by being faster and smarter than the competitors. Next to the trading team, you also work closely with our research and technology teams.
