Quantitative Researcher

X4 Alpha

About the opportunity

We’re partnering with a multi-strategy quant crypto trading firm and liquidity provider, founded by leaders from some of the most successful firms in traditional finance. The firm is connected to more than 50 centralised exchanges as well as decentralised venues, and runs fully automated systematic strategies on high-performance, low-latency infrastructure.

The firm is now hiring quants to monetise it, with a consistent double-digit market share on multiple venues and a push to grow share in the most competitive crypto markets.

The team

  • A team of researchers, traders and engineers, many from top-tier firms in traditional finance
  • Small, model-driven trading teams with real autonomy, working alongside other core quant teams while keeping the upside of a more siloed pod
  • Offices in New York, London and Singapore

The role

  • Research and run model-driven trading strategies in crypto, from medium-frequency (minutes to hours) to high-frequency taking and making
  • Own alpha from idea through to live trading, on centralised and decentralised venues
  • Opportunities across cross-exchange and DeFi-to-CeFi strategies, plus emerging areas such as prediction markets

What we’re looking for

  • Market-taking experience in crypto, futures or equities
  • One to four years of experience
  • A track record of live, profitable strategies

What’s on offer

  • A competitive package with significant performance-linked upside
  • A live, mature platform and the autonomy to build your own strategies
  • Real ownership and impact in a team that is still growing
  • A choice of New York, London or Singapore
