Head of Risk at Deeter Analytics · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Deeter Analytics is a privately held investment research and trading firm managing its own capital across global public markets. We pair sharp human judgment with modern AI to act on a distinctive way of seeing markets, and we run a concentrated, thesis-driven book that moves as the world does.
We’re hiring a Head of Risk to own everything that happens after a position goes on. You’ll know positions and the reasoning behind them, read the book daily against the firm’s current views, and say plainly when something no longer belongs: a view that has run its course, two positions that contradict each other, an exposure that accumulated without anyone deciding to have it. You’ll own the firm’s picture of its own exposures and define what we need to see to manage them. You report directly to the principal.
This is an individual contributor seat, built from scratch: no team to manage, no outside investors to report to, and no inherited framework. The work is yours to do, not to delegate.
The map of the book. A living inventory of every position: why it’s on, what would take it off, and what it’s exposed to, by name, theme and factor.
Thesis hygiene. A daily read of positions against the firm’s current views, with stale, contradictory or mis-sized positions flagged the day they happen.
The clean-up. Positions nobody is watching, residual pieces of old trades, exposures that drifted. You find them and get them resolved.
Exposure and scenario views sized to how we actually trade, in terms the principal will act on.
Counterparty, financing and operational exposures across our brokers and platforms: known, sized, and on the same map as the positions.
What we need to see. You define the data and views this seat requires and the tech team builds to your spec.
The daily note. One short, decision-ready view each day: what changed, what’s stale, what needs a decision.
What this is not
Not a PM or trader seat, and not a path to one. Not a quant seat. Not the desk’s housekeeping; execution and position maintenance stay with the trading desk. You won’t run a view of your own or be asked where markets are going; you’ll be asked whether the book is consistent with the principal’s view and the evidence behind it. You don’t set limits and there is no risk committee; the principal decides. What you have is a direct line.
