Job Overview

We are seeking a Senior Event-Driven Researcher to strengthen the firm's ability to interpret complex, fast-moving situations inside crypto markets.

The role focuses on crypto-native event catalysts - regulatory developments, protocol governance, token unlocks, and special situations and translating them into actionable insight and tradeable opportunities.

You'll work alongside on-chain and real-time intelligence teams, with access to unique data sources and proprietary tooling that most crypto firms don't have.
