📋 Description
• Advance the firm’s understanding of event-driven situations by developing deep, context-rich views that provide informational edge over the market. You'll own situations end-to-end, maintaining a running view as facts and narratives evolve. • Monitor and interpret new information as it emerges, exercising judgment to distinguish signal from noise and clearly communicate what matters, what does not, and how it changes the decision set/probability tree. • Identify actionable, asymmetric opportunities early, grounded in a well-developed understanding of the situation rather than reactive interpretation. • Contribute to the development of the firm’s research capabilities, working with engineering to shape tools and workflows that support our event-driven trading style.
🎯 Requirements
• Prior experience (5 years+) in **information and flows-driven research or trading**, within a tier1 buy-side or proprietary trading environment. • Demonstrated ability to operate in **event-driven settings**, where outcomes depend on interpreting incomplete information, incentives, and evolving situations rather than static fundamentals. • Comfort engaging with a **wide range of event-driven situations**, requiring intellectual curiosity and the ability to quickly build conviction across diverse topics. • Deep crypto experience is not required, but you should demonstrate genuine intellectual curiosity about the space and a credible path to ramping up quickly. • **Backgrounds that tend to translate well include** roles in macro, EM, FX, commodities, event-driven or special situations research, and other environments where information flow, positioning, and timing are central. • **Backgrounds that tend to be a weaker fit** include highly systematic or delta-neutral strategies, and roles focused primarily on long-only fundamental analysis rather than events and decision-making under uncertainty. • Desired Attributes • - Ability to go deep into details when required, while maintaining a holistic view of the situation and its implications. • - Ability to hold and adapt coherent views as situations evolve. • - Comfort with rigorous debate, constructive challenge, and the ability to collaborate effectively across research, trading, and engineering teams. • - Strong intrinsic motivation to become an exceptional, top-tier researcher.
