About the Role

The central responsibility of the Jacksonville, FL opening is the full evidence path from event-time data design through production review of market-microstructure measures. The assigned window includes Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage. Success requires reproducible work, prompt escalation, and clear ownership through review and production use.

Jacksonville Operating Focus

The Jacksonville opening emphasizes early issue detection, complete case records, and dependable follow-through. Eastern Time coverage starts with a complete readiness check before U.S. markets open. The opening owns early detection of missing data, abnormal behavior, and incomplete prior-day actions. When a case remains open after the close, the record must include impact, containment, evidence, and the next responsible person. For this role, that means direct ownership of event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review during Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage.

First Review Cycle

During the initial operating review in Jacksonville, FL, you will examine event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review while the assigned schedule covers Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage. Normal controls remain in force throughout the review. Your initial work includes this task: Document assumptions, failure modes, and regime sensitivity. It also includes this task: Design studies of spreads, depth, impact, auction behavior, and short-horizon price response. The Jacksonville opening emphasizes early issue detection, complete case records, and dependable follow-through. The review must preserve the timing and source of each important input. The cycle ends with a short decision record, its limit, the next check, and each unresolved question. Another specialist must be able to trace the work through the full evidence path from event-time data design through production review of market-microstructure measures.

Responsibilities

• Design studies of spreads, depth, impact, auction behavior, and short-horizon price response
• Build event-time datasets without look-ahead or survivorship bias
• Partner with engineering to productionize validated measures
• Document assumptions, failure modes, and regime sensitivity
• Own event-time data quality, liquidity diagnostics, and intraday research review during Eastern Time preparation for the U.S. open and full-session exception coverage.

• A record of explaining noisy microstructure evidence without overstating conclusions
• Experience collaborating across time zones while maintaining the operating coverage assigned to the Jacksonville, FL opening.

• 401(k) plan with company matching
• Flexible paid time off and company holidays
