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.
Wichita, KSWichita is the largest city in Kansas and the global capital of general aviation manufacturing (Cessna, Beechcraft, Spirit Aero Systems are all here). The financial industry is small but Central Time alignment with US markets is clean and cost of living is among the lowest of any US metro.
What you'll tradeUS 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.
Risk frameworkTech 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.
Why Maverick funds this roleTech 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
