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
