Systematic Market Making Trader

.

• Experience working in highly systematic or rules-based trading environments
  .

• Experience market-making or trading options or other non-linear instruments.
• Greeks-based risk management and disciplined hedging frameworks.
• Familiarity with volatility, skew, and term-structure dynamics in a systematic setting.

• Operate and enhance systematic, market-making style trading strategies

• Monitor performance, execution efficiency, and market impact.
• Collaborate closely with technology and research teams to improve automation and robustness.
