About the opportunity

BLKCODE Technology Limited is a headhunter for innovation businesses, and we're recruiting on behalf of a confidential client: a technical, fast-growing firm that trades prediction markets and related instruments across economics and monetary policy, macro data, weather and climate, energy and commodities, and technology. The team is small, and is hiring across engineering, quantitative research, and trading as it grows.

Role Roadmap

There are no hard requirements for this role. The three areas below describe experience we value, not a checklist. We are equally interested in candidates with deep strength in one niche and generalists who can master an unfamiliar topic quickly, and there is considerable latitude to shape the role around what you do best as the team grows.

Engineering

Low-latency trading systems and the infrastructure they run on

Order routing and execution

Settlement and ledgering

Modeling

Statistical forecasting and machine learning applied to event outcomes

Quoting and hedging

Transaction-cost analysis

High-frequency econometrics

Forecasting with alternative data

Trading A record of profitable trading on prediction markets or comparable instruments: derivatives, crypto, commodities or rates, with a clear account of the source of edge

Domain expertise in one or more of our categories: economics and monetary policy, macro data, weather and climate, energy and commodities, or technology

What we are looking for

Strong software engineering, including comfort working close to production systems that handle money

Quantitative training, and the statistical judgment to work with noisy high-frequency data

Willingness to take ownership of open-ended problems in a small team, including the operational consequences of your own work

What we offer A high-ownership seat on a small, technical team, with real latitude to shape the role as the business grows

Direct exposure to the full stack of the business: engineering, modeling, and trading, rather than a narrow lane

Competitive base salary, equity, and benefits, commensurate with experience

Work based in Singapore, Taipei, Dubai, or Hong Kong

How to apply

Please send a CV and one example of relevant work to BLKCODE Technology Limited at info@BLKCODE.io: a paper, repository, research note, or a written account of a trading strategy and its results. A short note on which of the three areas above you would focus on, and why, is genuinely useful and will be read carefully. A cover letter is not required.
