In doing so, the trading team plays a vital role in maximizing trading P&L, managing firm risk, and most importantly, providing clients with world-class trading services.

The GSR Desk Analyst in Trading will add to our already world-class trading capabilities by overlaying a fundamental view on our trading strategies.

Responsibilities:

  • Monitor balance sheet and risk positions from a deep fundamental viewpoint, both from a portfolio and individual token position perspective
  • Produce fundamental research-driven portfolio construction advice to maximize risk-adjusted returns, including via macro/crypto views, subsector theses, token-specific ideas, and more
  • Disseminate macro, industry, and token-specific catalysts and risks impacting risk positions to traders to optimize positioning and execution
  • Partner with engineers to continuously improve trading and risk analytics infrastructure for optimized insights
  • Present positions and recommendations at weekly trading and risk management meetings

  • Strong knowledge of the cryptocurrency ecosystem and technical underpinnings is strongly preferred
  • Strong understanding of financial trading terms, including structured and derivatives products
  • Strong work ethic, with innate curiosity and desire to go above and beyond
  • Proven organizational skills, with the ability to effectively prioritize tasks in a fast-paced environment
