Tech Sector Momentum Trader (Remote, Funded) — Dallas, TX

A tech sector momentum trader at Maverick runs a concentrated book within US technology equities - semiconductors, software, cloud infrastructure, AI-adjacent names, and the mega-cap tech leaders. The role rewards traders who already follow tech earnings cycles, product release dynamics, and the rotation between sub-sectors.

Dallas is now home to one of the fastest-growing financial industries in the country. Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, and Wells Fargo have all relocated meaningful headcount to the metro over the last five years. Central Time alignment gives the city a clean trading schedule, and the state's tax environment makes it attractive for high-earning traders.

US tech equities across the cap spectrum: mega-cap leaders for stability and option liquidity, mid-cap semis and software for momentum, and selective small-cap names with real fundamental stories rather than meme volume. Sector ETFs (XLK, SOXX, IGV, SMH) for thematic exposure and hedging.

Tech is a high-beta sector - concentrated tech books move 1.5-2x the S&P on bad days. Maverick caps sector concentration at the portfolio level and requires either defined hedges (puts, ETF shorts) or smaller individual position sizes to compensate. We do not run leveraged-tech books.

Tech is the most-traded sector in US markets and one of the most volatile. Maverick funds focused tech traders because concentrated expertise in a single sector - knowing the names, the cycle, the customers - outperforms diversified-but-shallow approaches.

Traders who already read tech earnings, product launches, and conference circuits as part of their daily routine People who can distinguish a real fundamental story from a momentum chase Candidates who understand sub-sector rotation - semis lead, software follows, etc. Traders comfortable with high volatility and high single-day drawdowns
