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
