About the Role

In this Baltimore, MD role, you will be accountable for electronic execution, order exceptions, transaction-cost analysis, venue review, and broker accountability while supporting Eastern Time preparation for the open, intraday risk review, and close control.

Baltimore Operating Focus

The Baltimore opening emphasizes evidence quality, prompt escalation, and clear separation of research from live decisions. Pre-market work confirms that research inputs and operating controls are ready before risk is active. During the session, the opening separates evidence collection from authority to change production behavior. Close review checks that escalation decisions were proportional, documented, and assigned to the correct follow-up process. For this role, that means direct ownership of live orders, implementation shortfall, venue outcomes, and execution exceptions during Eastern Time preparation for the open, intraday risk review, and close control.
