• Develop and prototype systematic trading strategies using statistical and ML-based techniques.
• Contribute to signal research, backtesting infrastructure, and strategy evaluation frameworks.
• Monitor and interpret DeFi protocol mechanics (AMMs, perps, lending markets) for alpha generation.
• Collaborate with engineers to turn research into production-grade, automated trading systems.

Ideal Traits

• Strong in data structures, algorithms, and core CS fundamentals.
• Proficiency in any programming language
• Understanding of probability, statistics, or ML concepts.
• Self-driven and comfortable with ambiguity, iteration, and fast learning cycles.
• Strong interest in markets, trading, or algorithmic systems.

Bonus Points For

• Experience with backtesting or feature engineering.
• Exposure to crypto primitives (AMMs, perps, mempools, etc.)
• Projects involving alpha signals, strategy testing, or DeFi bots.
• Participation in quant contests, hackathons, or open-source work.

What You’ll Gain:

• Cutting-Edge Tech Stack: You'll work on modern infrastructure and stay up to date with the latest trends in technology.
• Idea-Driven Culture: We welcome and encourage fresh ideas. Your input is valued, and you're empowered to make an impact from day one.
• Ownership & Autonomy: You’ll have end-to-end ownership of projects. We trust our team and give them the freedom to make meaningful decisions.
• Impact-Focused: Your work won’t be buried under bureaucracy. You’ll see it go live and make a difference in days, not quarters

What We Value:

• Craftsmanship over shortcuts: We appreciate engineers who take the time to understand the problem deeply and build durable solutions—not just quick fixes.
• Depth over haste: If you're the kind of person who enjoys going one level deeper to really "get" how something works, you'll thrive here.
• Invested mindset: We're looking for people who don't just punch tickets, but care about the long-term success of the systems they build.
• Curiosity with follow-through: We admire those who take the time to explore and validate new ideas, not just skim the surface.

Compensation:

• INR 6 - 12 LPA
• Performance Bonuses: Linked to contribution, delivery, and impact.
