About the role

A dynamic trading firm in the United States is seeking a junior trader eager to learn about high-frequency trading and to develop a programming background. The role involves collaborating closely with senior staff to manage risk, create new trading strategies, and maintain trading tools. Candidates must be comfortable with numbers, problem-solving, and thrive in a fast-paced environment. Familiarity with Python is preferred. This position offers growth opportunities in a diverse team atmosphere.

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.
