Job description

From Los Angeles, CA, the fully remote Senior Systematic Trader - U.S. Equities will own daily oversight and continued improvement of systematic U.S.-equity trading. This opening is limited to applicants based in the Los Angeles, CA area and provides Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff.

Compensation and Benefits

Base salary: $225,000-325,000 USD, based on experience
Work arrangement: Fully remote; applicants must be based in the Los Angeles, CA area
Experience: 7+ years
Additional compensation: Performance-bonus and equity eligibility based on role and level

About the Role

The central responsibility of the Los Angeles, CA opening is live strategy supervision, exposure limits, execution review, incident response, and controlled production experiments. The assigned window includes Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff. Success requires reproducible work, prompt escalation, and clear ownership through review and production use.

Los Angeles Operating Focus

The Los Angeles opening emphasizes clean transfers from East Coast decisions into late-session and post-close analysis. The schedule gives this opening direct ownership of the closing auction, late-session liquidity changes, and earnings or corporate events released after the U.S. close. Morning overlap with Eastern Time is reserved for decisions that need live discussion. Later work must leave a complete record for the next pre-market review. For this role, that means direct ownership of live equity exposure, execution quality, escalation, and post-trade review during Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff.

First Review Cycle

The Los Angeles, CA opening begins with an end-to-end review of live equity exposure, execution quality, escalation, and post-trade review during Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff. The review will keep research observations separate from live production decisions. You will first complete this task: Define escalation and controlled-shutdown procedures. You will then complete this task: Work with research on production experiments and post-trade review. The Los Angeles opening emphasizes clean transfers from East Coast decisions into late-session and post-close analysis. An unexpected result stays open until the evidence supports a disposition. The final note will connect the outcome to live strategy supervision, exposure limits, execution review, incident response, and controlled production experiments and give another specialist enough detail to challenge the decision without a separate meeting.

Responsibilities

• Monitor strategies, exposures, limits, and execution quality
• Investigate slippage, drift, and unusual market behavior
• Define escalation and controlled-shutdown procedures
• Work with research on production experiments and post-trade review
• Own live equity exposure, execution quality, escalation, and post-trade review during Pacific Time coverage of the U.S. close and the after-hours research handoff.

Required Qualifications

• Seven or more years in systematic trading or electronic markets
• Direct experience with U.S.-equity execution and market structure
• Calm, documented decision-making under live-market pressure

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supervising multiple systematic strategies in production
• Knowledge of broker controls, market incidents, and trading-system recovery
• Experience collaborating across time zones while maintaining the operating coverage assigned to the Los Angeles, CA opening.

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision plan options with substantial company support
• 401(k) plan with company matching
• Flexible paid time off and company holidays
• Paid parental and caregiver leave
• Annual learning, conference, and professional-development budget
• Remote-work equipment and home-office support
• Performance-bonus and equity eligibility based on role and level

Benefits are subject to plan terms and eligibility requirements.
