Tech Sector Momentum Trader (Remote, Funded) — Seattle, WA

Seattle, WA:

Seattle is home to Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, and a financial industry built around those anchor employers. Russell Investments is headquartered in the metro, and a meaningful asset‑management presence has grown around the tech wealth concentration. Pacific Time means a 6:30am market open. Washington has no state income tax.

What you’ll trade:

US tech equities across the cap spectrum: mega‑cap leaders for stability and option liquidity, mid‑cap semis and software for momentum, and selective small‑cap names with real fundamental stories rather than meme volume. Sector ETFs (XLK, SOXX, IGV, SMH) for thematic exposure and hedging.

Risk framework:

Tech is a high‑beta sector — concentrated tech books move 1.5–2x the S&P on bad days. Maverick caps sector concentration at the portfolio level and requires either defined hedges (puts, ETF shorts) or smaller individual position sizes to compensate. We do not run leveraged‑tech books.

Why Maverick funds this role:

Tech is the most‑traded sector in US markets and one of the most volatile. Maverick funds focused tech traders because concentrated expertise in a single sector — knowing the names, the cycle, the customers — outperforms diversified‑but‑shallow approaches.

Traders who already read tech earnings, product launches, and conference circuits as part of their daily routine People who can distinguish a real fundamental story from a momentum chase Candidates who understand sub‑sector rotation — semis lead, software follows, etc. Traders comfortable with high volatility and high single‑day drawdowns
