About the Role

The San Diego, CA position owns continuous-market coverage, venue and counterparty exposure, funding, custody constraints, and weekend controls. Its working schedule covers Pacific Time coverage of late-session liquidity and post-close validation.

San Diego Operating Focus

The San Diego opening emphasizes careful West Coast review and complete handoffs for the next trading day. This opening concentrates on the later part of the U.S. session, when liquidity can change quickly around the close. It also reviews after-hours results and system behavior before the next day begins. Written handoffs must separate completed work, active risk, and research questions that do not require an immediate trading response. For this role, that means direct ownership of continuous-market exposure, fragmented liquidity, venue risk, and shift handoffs during Pacific Time coverage of late-session liquidity and post-close validation.
