What you'll do
- Design and ship vault strategies: take a strategy from thesis and design doc through implementation, simulation, deployment, and live operation - RWAs, leveraged lending, yield aggregation, cross-protocol allocation, perpetuals, prediction markets, and new product types we haven't built yet.
- Optimize strategies: signals research, execution optimization, gas-aware rebalancing across tokens and chains, liquidity and duration management.
- Run protocol and asset due diligence: evaluate new protocols, collateral assets, and chains for inclusion in strategies - solvency mechanics, oracle design, redemption paths, liquidity depth, and more.
- Own risk parameters: supply caps, LLTV settings, concentration limits, VaR-based exposure models, and automated de-risking logic that pulls positions when conditions deteriorate.
- Integrate new protocols and chains: build and validate adapters for lending markets, DEX aggregators, and bridges; verify strategy behavior against forked-chain simulation before capital touches it.
- Monitor what you build: extend our risk-monitoring and alerting systems, define the conditions that page someone, and participate in the on-call rotation for the strategies you own.
- Support launches and clients: partner with growth, capital markets, and client teams on new vault and strategy launches.
- A track record of building quantitative systems that run in production - algorithmic trading, portfolio optimization, market making, or risk systems at a trading firm, asset manager, fintech, or crypto-native company. This is often 2-8 years of experience, but we weight what you've built over years on a résumé.
- You write the code behind your strategies. Strong Python and solid software-engineering fundamentals: testing, code review, and the judgment to build durable abstractions rather than one-off scripts.
- Applied quantitative skills: optimization, statistics, and simulation, and the instinct to validate models against real data before trusting them.
- Comfort with data infrastructure:
SQL and experience building or consuming data pipelines.
- Production ownership: you've debugged live systems under pressure and understand that a strategy managing other people's money has to be correct, monitored, and recoverable.
- Clear technical communication.
- Bonus points - Hands-on DeFi experience: lending protocols, ERC-4626 vaults, AMMs, or oracle systems - as a builder or a sophisticated user.
- Solidity / EVM literacy: reading protocol contracts, forked-chain simulation (anvil), or writing adapters; non-EVM experience (e.g., Solana) also valued.
- On-chain operational experience: multisig workflows, transaction submission and signing infrastructure, bridging.
- TypeScript, and familiarity with a modern data stack (e.g., BigQuery, Dagster, Hex, GCP/Kubernetes).
- Experience with risk modeling for volatile or thinly-traded assets: VaR, liquidation modeling, stress testing.
Who thrives here
- Wants end-to-end ownership - research, code, deployment, and the pager - not a hand-off between research and engineering.
- Comfortable that crypto markets don't close. Strategy owners take on-call seriously, and the occasional market-event night is part of the job; we staff and rotate to keep it sustainable.
- Operates well in ambiguity: can take "we should have a strategy for X" and return a scoped design, not a list of questions - and is comfortable in a fast-moving space where priorities and team structure evolve.
- Holds a genuine risk view and voices it - including "we shouldn't do this" when the analysis says so.
- Pragmatic about shipping: balances rigor against client timelines without cutting corners on safety.
- Naturally curious about digital assets and DeFi. Deep crypto experience is not required - curiosity and strong quant fundamentals are.
- Remote first - work from anywhere in the US & Canada
- Regular in-person company retreats and cross-country "office visit" perk
- 100% paid medical, dental, and vision premiums for employees
- $1,000 WFH stipend
- Monthly reimbursement for home internet, phone, and cellular data
- Unlimited vacation
- 100% paid pa
