About the Role

The Sacramento, CA position owns live strategy supervision, exposure limits, execution review, incident response, and controlled production experiments. Its working schedule covers Pacific Time monitoring of policy-sensitive events, the U.S. close, and after-hours review. You will work with a small group of specialists and preserve enough evidence for another person to challenge every material decision.

Sacramento Operating Focus

The Sacramento opening emphasizes source discipline, event-risk controls, and careful documentation of assumptions. Policy-sensitive events require careful source control and a clear record of what was known at each time. This opening reviews late-session behavior without implying that price proves a specific cause. After-hours analysis separates immediate operating needs from research questions that deserve a slower and more complete test. For this role, that means direct ownership of live equity exposure, execution quality, escalation, and post-trade review during Pacific Time monitoring of policy-sensitive events, the U.S. close, and after-hours review.

First Review Cycle

The initial Sacramento, CA review combines Pacific Time monitoring of policy-sensitive events, the U.S. close, and after-hours review with a controlled examination of live equity exposure, execution quality, escalation, and post-trade review. Each material observation needs a source, a time, and a defined owner. You will first complete this task: Work with research on production experiments and post-trade review. You will then complete this task: Monitor strategies, exposures, limits, and execution quality. The Sacramento opening emphasizes source discipline, event-risk controls, and careful documentation of assumptions. An unexpected result stays open until the evidence supports a disposition. The review closes only after another specialist can reproduce the key checks and identify the evidence behind the outcome for live strategy supervision, exposure limits, execution review, incident response, and controlled production experiments.

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 monitoring of policy-sensitive events, the U.S. close, and after-hours review.

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 Sacramento, 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.
