About the role
You'll learn trading from the inside, working at the intersection of technology and finance across traditional and digital assets — helping research signals, analyse execution, and monitor risk while building the instincts of a professional trader.
About the Internship Duration: 3–6 months (flexible start; full-time preferred)
Location:
Our Singapore office, our New York office, or remote
Who it's for: Students, recent graduates, or early-career quants eager to learn trading from the inside.
What You'll Do:
Research, prototype, and backtest medium- and high-frequency trading signals alongside senior traders.
Monitor live positions and market conditions, flagging anomalies and risk events in real time.
Analyse execution quality and post-trade performance to reduce slippage and cost.
Study market microstructure, order-book dynamics, and the mechanics of the exchanges we trade.
Build small tools and dashboards that make the desk faster and better informed.
Work with researchers and developers to move ideas from notebook to production.
What You Bring A strong quantitative foundation (Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, or similar).
Programming ability in Python (C++ or Rust a plus) for analysis and rapid prototyping.
Genuine curiosity about markets and a disciplined, probabilistic view of risk.
Composure under pressure and quick, data-driven judgment.
High attention to detail and a strong sense of ownership.
Fluency in English is required.
What You'll Get Hands-on exposure to live trading, real strategies, and real risk from day one.
Mentorship from experienced traders and quantitative researchers.
Competitive, performance-linked compensation.
A meritocratic, high-ownership environment where good ideas win regardless of seniority.
A clear path to a full-time role for strong performers.
Flexibility to work from our Singapore or New York office, or remotely.
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.
