About The Team

Our Trading Product Group leads the design of all the products on OKX's derivatives trading exchange, including spot trading, spot margin, futures, leveraged tokens, trading options etc.

What You’ll Be Doing

• AI Agent Review & Escalation – Review AI agent outputs across risk monitoring workflows, assess findings for accuracy, identify false positives, and elevate risk events through the appropriate channels with clear, well‑documented rationale.
• Risk Patrol Operation – Operate AI‑assisted investigation workflows covering key risk metrics, verify agent reasoning, identify analytical gaps, and ensure the quality output of investigations.
• Market Abuse Investigation – Review AI‑surfaced signals related to suspected market abuse, assess the validity, and elevate to the appropriate team with a structured findings report.
• SOP Development & Agent Skill Authorship – Translate frontline risk experience into structured SOPs and agent skill sets, identify blind spots in current detection logic, document edge cases, and collaborate with the Product team to continuously improve automated coverage.
• Risk System Quality Review – Conduct regular reviews of agent performance to assess output quality, surface systematic errors, and propose refinements. Serve as a quality gate between automated risk outputs and business‑level decisions.
• Cross‑Functional Risk Coordination – Communicate escalated risk findings clearly to Product, Compliance, Legal, and Operations teams, ensuring AI‑generated intelligence is accurately interpreted and translated into actionable, well‑documented recommendations.

What We Look For In You

3+ years in trading risk, ideally at a crypto exchange or derivatives venue.

Deep knowledge of attack vectors: pump‑and‑dump, wash trading, liquidation suicide attacks, Sybil patterns, flash crashes.

Strong data intuition – Able to QA AI‑generated analysis, spot anomalies in outputs, and challenge agent conclusions.

Comfort operating in an AI‑augmented workflow: prompting agents, reading structured outputs, making final calls under time pressure.

Excellent judgment in ambiguous, high‑pressure situations – You decide, the agent advises.

Cross‑functional collaboration skills; able to work with PMs, engineers, and compliance.

Nice‑To‑Haves

• Hands‑on experience with LLM‑based tools, SQL, or Python – Enough to validate AI‑generated queries.
• Personal trading experience or financial risk certification (FRM/CFA).
