About the Role

The central responsibility of the San Jose, CA opening is live cross-asset exposure, instrument-specific mechanics, funding, rolls, execution, and incident controls.

Success requires reproducible work, prompt escalation, and clear ownership through review and production use.

San Jose Operating Focus

The San Jose opening emphasizes scalable research systems, measurable latency, and careful release validation. Large datasets and time-sensitive systems need separate measures for correctness, latency, and cost. The opening reviews the U.S. close while also preparing overnight workflows that must be ready before the next session. Production improvements are accepted only when tests show that speed did not weaken point-in-time integrity or auditability. For this role, that means direct ownership of cross-asset exposure, funding and roll events, execution quality, and venue-specific risk during Pacific Time review of data-intensive workflows, the U.S. close, and overnight processing.
