We encourage competitiveness and collaboration in equal measure and strive to better each other to win as one team.
Due to the dynamic nature of this business, we cultivate an environment of continuous learning and growth through an in-house education department. Through formal classroom work, mock trading, and real-time practical exposure, you will gain a holistic introduction to the derivatives market while sharpening your quantitative skillset. You can expect:
An introduction to options pricing, theory, trading philosophies, and programming courses
Exposure to different product areas and responsibilities
One-on-one mentorship from senior members in the firm
Opportunities to grow quickly and start making autonomous trading decisions
Participation in data-driven research for the purpose of alpha generation
What it takes for you to be successful:
