About the role

Are you interested in sitting alongside crypto traders at this leading Chicago hedge fund? This role sits specifically within this hedge fund's digital assets arm and will allow you to get direct impact into the continued success of the trading here. You'll sit alongside a high-performing trading desk, working directly with traders, researchers and engineers to keep the operation running seamlessly while constantly looking for ways to make it better. If something is manual, you'll automate it. If a process is slow, you'll help improve it. More importantly, you'll become the go-to person who understands how the desk works and helps it scale. Python will be a genuine part of your day-to-day, whether that's automating workflows, improving reporting or building tools that remove friction for the trading team. You'll also work with Linux, Git and proprietary trading systems, giving you plenty of exposure to both technology and the markets. This role would suit someone with a few years' experience supporting a trading business who enjoys getting into the detail, solving problems and partnering with front office teams rather than simply processing tickets. You'll also likely have experience with crypto or digital assets- whether that's a personal/ school project or in a professional setting. If you enjoy being close to the action, want your work to have a visible impact on a trading desk, and like the idea of combining markets, operations and technology, this is the kind of opportunity where you'll continue to learn every day. Apply now! No up-to-date resume required.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
