Kraken is seeking a liquidity & funding stress Quantitative Risk Manager to design, build, and operate the firm's factor‑based liquidity and capital stress testing framework.

This role will develop the quantitative backbone of Kraken's Treasury and Capital Markets function—translating on‑chain, exchange, and internal data into actionable stress analytics that inform daily liquidity management, capital allocation, and funding strategy.

• Design and maintain factor‑based liquidity and funding stress models to measure the firm's resilience under market and operational stress events
• Integrate market and internal data (wallets, exchanges, counterparties, banking flows) into real‑time capital and liquidity simulations
• Develop and enhance Treasury's quantitative model library, expanding from first‑principles liquidity coverage and funding runoff analyses to advanced jump‑diffusion, contagion, and regime‑switching models as risk management matures
• Partner with Treasury Product Engineering to deliver transparent, data‑driven dashboards and stress visualizations through Kraken's Capital Management Product
• Perform sensitivity and factor attribution analysis, explaining how liquidity, counterparty, and funding dynamics impact overall growth capacity and balance‑sheet deployment
• Document, validate, and communicate models to senior leadership, risk committees, and external partners, ensuring consistency with governance and audit standards
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with Data, Product, and Finance to define data quality standards and align Treasury risk factors with enterprise metrics
• Additional duties and responsibilities as assigned

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in a quantitative discipline (Finance, Financial Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or related)
• 6‑10 years of experience in treasury, liquidity risk, capital risk modeling, or market risk, preferably within a trading, fintech, or digital‑asset environment
• Strong Python programming skills (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, Monte Carlo simulation engines) and working knowledge of SQL
• Demonstrated experience building liquidity or funding stress test frameworks and factor‑based capital models
