Market Making & Liquidity Management

• Generate profit on Perpetual and Spot trading, execute strategies to manage the project treasury, and provide “Active Alpha” cash flow for the ecosystem.

• Analyze the impact of the project’s token omics and incentive mechanisms on token supply and market stability.
• Generate daily and weekly reporting on PnL, liquidity health, market sentiment, and competitor performance.
• Provide data-driven recommendations for adjusting token utility, staking reward parameters, and burn mechanisms based on market conditions.

Requirements

• Candidates with less experience but who demonstrate exceptional potential and a strong aptitude for quantitative analysis are encouraged to apply for a Junior Quantitative Strategist position.
• 5+ years of professional market execution or portfolio management experience, with at least 3 years specifically in the crypto/Web3 space (VC, Hedge Fund, or Token Project).
• MM Expertise: Proven track record in Market Making and managing relationships with top-tier liquidity providers.
• Technical Market Knowledge: Deep understanding of Perpetual/Futures mechanics and advanced order execution methods.
• On-chain Proficiency: Hands-on experience managing concentrated liquidity in AMM V3 environments.
• Analytical Stack: Advanced proficiency in Python, SQL, and on-chain analysis tools (e.g., Dune Analytics, Nansen, Etherscan).
• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Quantitative Finance, Mathematics, Economics, or a related field.

Benefits
