About the Role

This opening gives the Houston, TX hire responsibility for allocation methods, portfolio constraints, concentration limits, turnover controls, and stress diagnostics, with operating coverage focused on Central Time monitoring of cross-asset conditions and the complete U.S. trading day. You will connect research, engineering, trading, and risk without hiding uncertainty or operational tradeoffs.

Houston Operating Focus

The Houston opening emphasizes disciplined links between market evidence, cross-asset risk, and operating decisions. Cross-asset review becomes important when energy prices, rates, currencies, and equity risk move together. The opening must test whether those links are stable enough to affect a decision or are only a temporary reaction. Research and trading records must identify the exact evidence used without turning a market story into an unsupported conclusion. For this role, that means direct ownership of portfolio constraints, exposure diagnostics, and stress review during Central Time monitoring of cross-asset conditions and the complete U.S. trading day.

First Review Cycle

For the first complete work cycle in Houston, TX, you will use Central Time monitoring of cross-asset conditions and the complete U.S. trading day to test how the team measures and escalates changes in portfolio constraints, exposure diagnostics, and stress review. The first evidence set will cover this task: Develop allocation and risk-budgeting methods. The second will cover this task: Model factor, sector, liquidity, and concentration constraints. The Houston opening emphasizes disciplined links between market evidence, cross-asset risk, and operating decisions. Each material deviation receives a named follow-up owner. The final record separates completed work, open research, and live operating risk. A reviewer must be able to trace each material decision to allocation methods, portfolio constraints, concentration limits, turnover controls, and stress diagnostics.

Responsibilities

• Develop allocation and risk-budgeting methods
• Model factor, sector, liquidity, and concentration constraints
• Measure turnover, capacity, and stress behavior
• Create transparent diagnostics for portfolio decisions
• Own portfolio constraints, exposure diagnostics, and stress review during Central Time monitoring of cross-asset conditions and the complete U.S. trading day.
