Healthcare Sector Momentum Trader (Remote, Funded) — Jacksonville, FL

A healthcare sector momentum trader at Maverick focuses on US healthcare equities — biotech catalysts, large pharma, medical devices, and the managed-care payer complex. The sector spans both highly volatile catalyst-driven small-caps and defensive large-cap names, which means a healthcare specialist runs two very different sub-strategies under one umbrella.

Jacksonville, FL:

Jacksonville hosts a major concentration of insurance and financial-services back-office operations — Citi, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank, and Fidelity all have large campuses in the metro. Eastern Time alignment with the NYSE is convenient, and Florida's lack of state income tax is a meaningful financial advantage for high-earning traders.

What you'll trade:

Large pharma (JNJ, MRK, PFE, LLY) for stable trend trades and option liquidity, large biotech (AMGN, GILD, REGN) for fundamental-driven positioning, mid-cap biotech for catalyst trades around clinical data and FDA decisions, medical device names (ISRG, MDT) for steady momentum, and payers (UNH, ELV) for policy-driven moves.

Risk framework:

Healthcare carries binary catalyst risk in biotech (one FDA decision moves a stock 40%), regulatory and political risk in payers and large pharma, and patent-cliff timing risk. Maverick limits biotech catalyst exposure to defined-risk structures and caps total sector concentration.

Why Maverick funds this role:

Maverick funds specialists who bring genuine sector knowledge, not generalists picking up healthcare names off a momentum screen.

• Traders with a science or medical background — or who have done the work to understand it
• People who can read a clinical trial press release and assess the actual signal
• Candidates who already follow the FDA PDUFA calendar and major medical conferences
• Traders who can size catalyst trades for binary outcomes, not normal-distribution outcomes
