What You Will Do

  • Execute and manage trading strategies across centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) venues, including AMM pools, concentrated liquidity positions, and order books.
  • Monitor positions, inventory levels, and P&L in real time; proactively flag risks and execute adjustments.
  • Maintain and improve internal trading operations tooling — position trackers, reporting dashboards, hedging workflows, and reconciliation processes.
  • Stay current on DeFi market structure, protocol mechanics (AMMs, PMMs, lending protocols), and regulatory developments relevant to DeFi.

Requirements

  • 2–5 years of experience in crypto trading, market-making, or liquidity provisioning — at a trading firm, market maker, or DeFi-native operation.
  • Solid understanding of AMM mechanics (Uniswap v3/v4, Orca, etc.), order book dynamics, and how liquidity depth affects price impact and slippage.
  • Strong quantitative and analytical skills; proficiency in Python or similar for data analysis and position monitoring is a plus.
  • Rigorous approach to risk management — you track exposure, hedge thoughtfully, and escalate early when market conditions shift.
  • Excellent communication skills; able to represent the team in external counterparty conversations with professionalism and precision.
  • Self-directed and adaptable — comfortable operating with autonomy across time zones in a remote-first environment.

We Provide

  • Prior experience at a DeFi protocol, crypto market maker, or liquidity-as-a-service provider.
  • Familiarity with Solana ecosystem tooling (Jupiter, Orca, Drift) and EVM DeFi (Uniswap, Aave, Curve).
  • Algorithmic trading experience (managing systematic trading systems).
  • Machine learning (e.g. ridge/lasso regression, tree-based regressors, classification) and large data analysis background.
  • Hands-on experience with token launch mechanics — launchpad structures, cliff/vesting schedules, listing coordination across CEX and DEX venues.
