About the role

We are looking for a Trading Operations Specialist to support our algorithmic trading activities. Your main responsibility will be to ensure that trading runs smoothly, reliably, and safely, through careful execution of operational checks, real-time monitoring, and timely escalation. This is a hands-on role, not a management track - ideal for someone detail-oriented, disciplined, and motivated to work in a regulated algo-trading environment

What You’ll Be Doing:

- Execute  pre- and post-session checks to confirm system readiness and close out procedures

- Monitor  intrasession invariants (positions, connectivity, latency, market data consistency, error rates) and promptly escalate deviations

- Follow  escalation procedures to involve the right people at the right time when anomalies arise

- Contribute to  continuous improvement of anomaly detection quality, incident reaction times, and communication efficiency

- Keep accurate operational records and logs for auditability and learning

- Shift-based schedule, ensuring reliable coverage across required trading hours.

What We Look For In You:

- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)

- 3 years in trading operations, trade support, or market surveillance (experience in algo/electronic trading is a plus, but not required)

- Solid understanding of how financial markets and trading systems operate

- High attention to detail and ability to stay calm under pressure

- Comfortable following structured procedures while also spotting where they can be improved

- Clear communicator in English, able to escalate effectively and work with multidisciplinary teams

Why Should You Join Our Team?

- Join an international team of highly qualified professionals

- Work remotely from an eligible location within the UTC−11 to UTC−5 time zone range.

- 40 paid days off

- Competitive salary
