    Job description

    We are looking for a Trading Operations Specialist to support our algorithmic trading activities. Your main responsibility will be to ensure that trading runs smoothly, reliably, and safely, through careful execution of operational checks, real-time monitoring, and timely escalation. This is a hands-on role, not a management track - ideal for someone detail-oriented, disciplined, and motivated to work in a regulated algo-trading environment

    What You’ll Be Doing:

    • Execute pre- and post-session checks to confirm system readiness and close out procedures
    • Monitor intrasession invariants (positions, connectivity, latency, market data consistency, error rates) and promptly escalate deviations
    • Follow escalation procedures to involve the right people at the right time when anomalies arise
    • Contribute to continuous improvement of anomaly detection quality, incident reaction times, and communication efficiency
    • Keep accurate operational records and logs for auditability and learning
    • Shift-based schedule, ensuring reliable coverage across required trading hours.

    What We Look For In You:

    • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)
    • 3 years in trading operations, trade support, or market surveillance (experience in algo/electronic trading is a plus, but not required)
    • Solid understanding of how financial markets and trading systems operate
    • High attention to detail and ability to stay calm under pressure
    • Comfortable following structured procedures while also spotting where they can be improved
    • Clear communicator in English, able to escalate effectively and work with multidisciplinary teams

    Why Should You Join Our Team?

    • Join an international team of highly qualified professionals
    • Work remotely from an eligible location within the UTC−11 to UTC−5 time zone range.
    • 40 paid days off
    • Competitive salary
