A Bit About Us

We are a proprietary trading firm established in 2016, boasts offices in Las Vegas and Chicago. Specializing in speculative, active trading of global futures, the company employs medium-frequency, 100% automated strategies that span major US futures markets, including CME, NYMEX, CBOT, COMEX, ICE, and NYBOT.

Key Duties and Responsibilities

In this role, reporting directly to the COO, the ideal candidate is an adept Python developer with experience in futures trading. The sought-after professional should possess coding expertise, algorithmic understanding, and trading acumen. The individual should demonstrate the ability to independently design, architect, analyze, and document without extensive guidance. Proactiveness, dedication, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of the futures market are essential. We value candidates who excel at managing multiple tasks (generalists) over those who specialize in a single task. This unique opportunity involves learning all facets of automated futures trading and joining a dynamic team of quantitative developers to research, program, back test, and implement new algorithmic trading strategies, as well as enhance existing ones.
