The Austin, TX position owns continuous-market coverage, venue and counter party exposure, funding, custody constraints, and weekend controls. Its working schedule covers Central Time collaboration between quantitative research, engineering, and trading operations. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.

The Austin opening emphasizes reproducible experiments, production discipline, and direct technical communication. This opening sits at the boundary between research ideas and production systems. Experiments must be reproducible, data lineage must remain visible, and a promising result does not bypass release controls.
